Chess Profile: evoLouz

Meet evoLouz, a spirited rapid and blitz chess player whose rating rollercoaster is almost as thrilling as their games. At their peak, evoLouz hit a rapid rating of 756 in June 2023 — a lofty summit reached through a blend of ambition and likely a few spectacular gambits.

Though the journey has seen some rough patches (hello 460 rating in December 2023), evoLouz’s resilience is evident: a tough streak of 6 losses in a row tried to knock them down, but a commendable 3-win streak earlier proved they can bounce back like a chess knight on a trampoline.

Playing Style & Opening Preferences

A player who likes to keep opponents guessing, evoLouz's favorite battleground is the Queens Pawn Opening, where they’ve played 7 games with a solid 43% win or draw rate. They shine brilliantly with the French Defense Normal Variation, boasting a perfect 100% win record in that opening—obviously a favorite move to surprise opponents.

Unfortunately, certain openings like the Caro Kann Defense and Saragossa Opening have been less forgiving, with zero wins there. But hey, all great players have their kryptonite!

Competition Record & Psychological Warfare

EvoLouz’s win-loss record in rapid play is 10 wins to 20 losses — a humble reminder that chess, like life, has its ups and downs. Blitz results are a bit rougher (1 win to 4 losses), but those fast-paced games are hardly for the faint of heart.

Notably, their best time to strike is at 11:00 AM—so if you want a shot at evoLouz, maybe challenge them at 3 AM instead! Their tilt factor is a manageable 6, proving they keep cool even when the pressure mounts and the queen is lost.

Memorable Games

Recent triumphs include a dramatic win against Zorcazi using the French Defense Normal Variation—sealing victory by forcing the black king to evacuate early. EvoLouz isn’t shy about ending games via resignation, having won 6 that way, but also has the stamina for knockout checkmates.

Their toughest recent defeat came at the hands of xadrrx, reminding us all that even the grandmasters of grit have off days.

Fun Facts

• Average moves per win: 43 — because patience is a virtue, especially when plotting pesky pins and forks.
• Comeback rate: 54.55% — behind every loss lies a master of the comeback!
• Early resignation rate: 12.5% — sometimes it’s smart to cut losses, sometimes it’s… well, strategical retreat.

In short: evoLouz may not yet dominate the leaderboards, but their spirited play, memorable endgame tactics, and penchant for surprise openings make them a fierce and entertaining foe on the virtual 64-square battlefield. Watch out for that French Defense—it's their secret weapon!
