Ezequiel L

Profile Summary: Ezequiel L. (ezequielidi)

Meet Ezequiel L., a chess enthusiast whose blitz rating has danced between the dizzying highs of 1296 and the humbler lows of 511, proving not even the mighty can escape the whims of fortune on the 64 squares. Starting out rapid with a respectable 911 rating in 2021, Ezequiel swiftly showed his mettle across blitz and rapid games, challenging opponents with a blend of resilience and flair.

Despite boasting a current blitz rating around 700-740 and an average game length touching 61 moves, Ezequiel's true strength lies in the endgame, where they display a penchant for patience and precision nearly 63% of the time. And if the tides turn against them? Fear not! With a staggering 75.85% comeback rate and a flawless 100% win rate after losing a piece, Ezequiel is a master of upsetting expectations.

Always prepared to fold early when the chips are down (or rather, to resign early with a modest 2.64% early resignation rate), this player balances pragmatism with dogged determination. Playing with the white pieces often tips outcomes slightly in Ezequiel's favor, boasting nearly 50% win rate, although black pieces bring their challenges.

Opponents beware, for Ezequiel’s favorite opening in blitz games is the Philidor Defense, engaging in some 700-plus duels with nearly half won, but not shy of mixing it up with the Kings Pawn Opening and some delightfully cryptic variations like the "Top Secret" opening with a neat 50% win rate.

Ezequiel enjoys sparring mostly in the evenings, rocking a peak win rate of over 52% during 8 to 9 pm, embracing the night owl lifestyle combined with a tactical mind that thrives when most players are winding down.

With a tilt factor hovering at just 12, Ezequiel keeps cool even when the heat is on, though rated versus casual matches can sometimes be a bit of a rollercoaster with a 52% win difference (casual games looking favorable, perhaps because opponents underestimate their skill or presence of coffee).

Finally, boasting over 4200 blitz games with a near-even win-loss record (2947 wins to 2987 losses) and the stamina to play over 2000 games a year, this player is the embodiment of passion and persistence—patiently moving pawns and dreaming of the perfect checkmate.

Whether they’re shaking hands at the opening bell or throwing down the gauntlet in a comeback, Ezequiel is a player to watch—sometimes unpredictable but always entertaining.
