Profile: Fabchess001

Fabchess001, a name that echoes through the (rapid) halls of online chess arenas, is a resilient and crafty player whose game tells a story of perseverance, surprises, and occasional nail-biting drama.

Rating and Performance

With a peak rapid rating flirting with the 900s back in 2021, Fabchess001 has embraced the rollercoaster life of ratings. The journey shows dips and climbs, culminating recently in a solid 710-730 range across rapid and blitz formats. Bullet chess might not be the strongest suit, with ratings hanging around the 400-600 club, but who needs lightning speed when strategy reigns supreme?

Playing Style

Known for patience and resilience, Fabchess001 prefers the long game with an average of 51 moves per win. It seems they enjoy a bit of an endgame dance, engaging in over 58% endgames. Losses tend to be longer affairs, averaging over 63 moves, showing they never give up easy. The player’s early resignation rate is a humble 1.7% — maybe a sign of fighting spirit or just stubbornness.

Tactical Genius and Comebacks

If Fabchess001 loses a piece, watch out — their win rate after losing material stands at an astonishing 100%. Whether it's grit, cunning, or opponents underestimating them, this player knows how to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. With a comeback rate over 62%, Fabchess001 is truly a fighter who thrives under pressure.

Favorite Openings

All this mastery is shrouded in secrecy — the player’s top openings remain “Top Secret”. But with nearly 300 rapid games under this mysterious umbrella and close to a 49% win rate, it’s clear these hidden weapons pack a punch.

Psychological Profile

Fabchess001 isn’t immune to the infamous tilt — with a tilt factor of 7, they sometimes get a bit rattled, but bounce back with an 11% better win rate in rated games compared to casual matches.

Opponent Highlights

From battling classics like zoilo2006 and franchess006 (with whom there are over 100 and 70 games respectively), to boasting a flawless 100% record against several other players, Fabchess001’s ledger is filled with intriguing rivalries and fairy-tale victories.

When to Challenge Fabchess001?

Evenings seem best — Fabchess001 shines brightest around 15:00 with a dazzling nearly 60% win rate, and a sharp 85.7% at the unusual hour of 2 AM (yes, they’re probably burning the midnight oil!). Days like Wednesday and Sunday also bring out their best game.

In Short

Fabchess001 is a determined journeyman of the chess world, blending endurance, tactical savvy, and a pinch of mystery. Whether you’re a casual player or a seasoned opponent, expect battles that test your brainpower and patience. Behind the “Top Secret” openings and fluctuating ratings lies a chess warrior who never backs down — now go challenge them, if you dare.

What You’re Doing Well

  • Tactical eyesight. You often spot forcing ideas such as 19.Qxh6+–Qh8# in your latest win, and 18…Qxg3# as Black. This shows good awareness of mating nets and pieces in the attack.
  • Playing for the initiative. Early pawn storms (a-/b-files, f-/g-pawns) keep opponents on the defensive and frequently pay off at your current level.
  • Time usage. You usually finish with 1–2 minutes left, so you are not blundering because of panic time trouble.

Main Growth Areas

  1. Opening discipline.
    • Many early flank-pawn thrusts (a3, b4, …f6, …h6) appear before knights and bishops are developed or the king is castled.
    • Result: The center is ceded and your king remains vulnerable (see the loss versus alvarobustosl on 23-May – 21…Nfd7? left dark-square holes that white exploited with g-pawn and queen).
    Goal: Follow the classic “3-3-3” checklist in your first nine moves: three minor pieces out, three pawns in the center (e/d/c or e/d/f), and castle within three moves after that.
  2. Pawn-structure weaknesses.
    • Repeated moves such as …f6/f7-f6 and g-/h-pawn pushes loosen the squares in front of your own king.
    • In the loss above, 27…f6 opened the long diagonal and allowed Qxh7+ ideas.
    Goal: Keep the f-pawn at home until you have castled and developed.
  3. King safety and move economy.
    • Several defeats feature the king stuck in the centre (e.g., 12…Kd7–16…Kxc6 sequence).
    • You also re-move the same piece in the opening (Qh5-h8-h5-h8) giving up tempo.
    Goal: Castle by move 10 in 80 % of your games; avoid moving the same piece twice unless you win material or deliver check.
  4. Defensive alertness.
    • You recognise your own attacking shots but occasionally overlook your opponent’s (39.g8=Q#).
    Goal: After calculating your candidate move, spend two seconds asking “what is my opponent threatening?” before you play it.

Action Plan for the Next Four Weeks

WeekFocusDaily Task
1Sound OpeningsPlay only Italian Game and Queen’s Gambit (as Black: 1…e5 & 1…e6). No flank pawns before move 6.
2Tactics15 rated puzzles/day, emphasising forks, pins, back-rank mates (see fork).
3Endgames10 min Drill: K+P vs K; basic rook endings; practice mates on a board.
4Self-ReviewAfter every session, load the PGN and mark the last safe move before evaluation swung. Use a notebook.

Illustrative Example

The diagram below is your winning position from the latest game. Replay the critical phase and try to identify why 17…c6? allowed 19.Qxh6+ followed by a forced mate.


Milestones to Aim For

  • Reach 750 blitz by consistently following opening principles.
  • Score 60 % in puzzle rush survival (goal: 20 puzzles).
  • Have at least one session where you castle before move 8 in five consecutive games.

Encouragement

Your attacking instincts are already strong — once they are backed up by tighter structure and king safety, your rating will rise quickly. Keep enjoying the game and reviewing both wins and losses. Good luck on your journey!
