William Paschall – International Master and Blitz Enthusiast

William Paschall, known on the chessboard as 'expatriot,' is a formidable International Master who has blend strategic depth with some downright flashy Blitz play. Starting his recorded Blitz adventures in 2014 with a modest 1569 rating and an impeccable 1-0 record (talk about a debut!), William quickly escalated to the 2200s by 2016, proving he’s no one-time wonder.

His playing style is one for the purists: with an impressive endgame frequency of 84% and an average of nearly 83 moves per win, William clearly enjoys the long haul, patiently outmaneuvering opponents until they blink. His white pieces bring him a solid 62.5% win rate, while black holds strong at 56.25%, showing his versatility on both sides of the board.

When the chips are down, William channels his inner phoenix. A tactical wizard, he boasts a staggering 89.47% comeback rate and wins 100% of games even after losing a piece — because giving up is simply not in his dictionary.

Not all foes get a friendly wave, though. While William has 100% win records against familiar rivals like thaur, smilemoon, and rthanson, others like peshi90 and capinsky keep his win column at a humble zero. But hey, every champion has their kryptonite.

He’s also a creature of habit when it comes to timing — absolutely crushing the competition at 16:00, 18:00, and even the odd 4 AM slot (apparently sleep is optional). Mondays and Thursdays are also golden days, with a win rate exceeding 60%.

Off the board or on, William Paschall embodies the spirit of perseverance and wit. Chess might be serious business, but with a tilt factor of 1, he keeps his cool — proving once again that the true battle is as much mental as it is on the 64 squares.
