Sylvia Johnsen - Woman FIDE Master

Meet Sylvia Johnsen, also known in the chess world by the username fabsylla, a Woman FIDE Master whose strategic prowess has made waves across all time controls, from the frantic pace of blitz to the thoughtful depths of daily chess. Sylvia's chess journey is a rollercoaster of brilliant wins, learning curves, and a battle-tested resilience that any opponent should respect.

  • Daily chess perfection with an unbeaten 7-game streak (7 wins, 0 losses!) showcasing her patient, methodical style.
  • Rapid chess battles have been competitive, with a top rating near 1880, balancing aggression and caution.
  • Bullet isn’t Sylvia’s playground—three tough losses—but hey, even the best have their kryptonite!

Playing Style & Personality

Sylvia’s games can last around 60 moves, indicating a love for deep strategic play and tenacious endgames (playing long and strong 68% of the time). Her comeback rate is a staggering 83%, which means if you think you’re winning against her, think again—she thrives under pressure and turns the tables with 100% success after losing a piece.

She enjoys the thrill of the game but keeps her cool with a low tilt factor of 5, proving she's cool-headed even when the board gets heated. With an early resignation rate below 9%, Sylvia fights till the last pawn falls.

The Rivalries and Friends

Sylvia has tangled the most with opponents like skela3097 (11 games), and has enjoyed a friendly rivalry with mgtourcoruss and nette0169, boasting win rates of 44% and over 85% against them respectively. Her varied opponent list keeps things exciting — plus, she’s apparently unbeatable against some mystery "Top Secret" opening she loves to unleash!

Fun Facts

  • Her favorite days to win? Turns out Sunday is lucky with an 80% win rate, while Thursdays… not so much.
