Once reaching a blazing peak blitz rating of 835 in June 2020, Fernando228’s rating journey resembles a rollercoaster, with highs that plunge only to climb again.

Game Habits & Personality

This player excels best in early mornings around 7 AM (definitely not a night owl!), boasting their highest win rate during this sunrise chess hour. Despite a modest 10% tilt factor, Fernando228 knows how to keep calm and carry on, occasionally resigning early but more often playing out complex endgames that last upwards of 50 moves (because hey, nobody likes a hurry in chess).

Recent Highlights

In a recent rapid-fire blitz game on June 1st, 2025, Fernando228 deployed the infamous Queen’s early adventure in a thrilling sequence starting with 1. e4 e5 2. Qh5, snatching material quickly and forcing resignation just 14 moves later. Fun fact: “Qh5” is Fernando228's signature move for surprising opponents — a blend of mischief and precision!

Stats That Tell a Story

  • Blitz: Over 5,600 games played with almost as many wins as losses, proving stamina and love for fast play.
  • Rapid: Nearly balanced win-loss record, peak rating above 1000, and a solid fondness for Bishop’s Opening and Scandinavian Defense variations.
  • Daily: A calmer battlefield with fewer games but featuring that cheeky Bowdler Attack win (because why not mess with tradition?).

The Verdict

Fernando228 may not be the chessboard king just yet, but with unwavering determination, a splash of unconventional opening choices, and a proven record of roaring back after setbacks, this player personifies the joy and quirks of the game. If chess were a novel, Fernando228's story is peppered with cliffhangers and daring chapters — always a page-turner and opponent’s puzzler.
