Profile Summary: extemm

Meet extemm, a rapid chess aficionado who has danced fiercely across the 64 squares and collected quite a story along the way. With a peak rapid rating that briefly flashed at 473 in early 2025, extemm’s chess journey is equal parts grit, tactics, and a sprinkle of daily mood swings — also known as a tilt factor of 8.

Chess Career Highlights

  • Played 310+ rapid games in 2025 alone — because who needs sleep when you’ve got pawns to push?
  • Achieved a roughly even split in rapid with 125 wins, 128 losses, and 26 draws, proving that losing is just another move on the board of experience.
  • Known for strong comebacks, winning nearly 73% of games after being behind — resilience is the middle name!

Favorite Openings (and Battle Scars)

extemm favors the Queen’s Pawn Opening (Chigorin Variation) boasting a respectable 56.25% win rate there. The French Defense Normal Variation and Queen’s Pawn Mikenas Defense remain a stronghold with a stellar 71.43% win rate — a fortress of tactical delight. Conversely, the King’s Pawn Opening - King's Knight Variation appears to be a struggle zone with only 8.33% wins, perhaps a place for future redemption or avoided like the dreaded fork.

Style & Personality

extemm often wraps up games via resignation, winning gracefully 80% of those, which means conceding is done with style rather than stubbornness. The player exhibits incredible endgame activity, appearing in over half (>50%) of the battles they fight, averaging around 49 moves per victory — patience and persistence are key. Favoring the evening pursuit of chess, extemm’s absolute best time to play? The magical hour of 23:00, where the brain shines brightest and blunders are minimized (mostly).

Noteworthy Recent Battles

Victory tastes sweet, especially when extemm conquers 420Micheal420 using an Englund Gambit, scrapping through 41 move theatrics culminating in a triumphant win!

However, even extemm can face the music — recent losses came against tough opponents like SecretSystem and Emran008, who exploited openings such as the Queen’s Pawn Chigorin Variation and the King’s Pawn Opening. But every defeat is just a lesson in disguise.

Quirky Trivia

  • Win rates vary wildly with the time of day — a surprising 100% win rate at 23:00 means extemm really should schedule midnight chess dates only.
  • Most opponents seem to be a mixed bag, but some players, like 420Micheal420, get a clean sweep — talk about personal rivals!
  • Despite a relatively modest average rating, extemm thrives against lower-rated opponents with a blazing 83.85% win rate, proving that titan or not, the peasant pieces still fall.

In short, extemm is the spirited, sometimes mercurial rapid chess player who fights tooth and nail, loves strategic gambits, and plays best while the world sleeps — a true night owl of the board.
