Meet flovdl: The Rapid Rook of the Online Chessboard
With a peak rapid rating of 481 achieved on May 25, 2025, flovdl is a formidable player who’s been on quite the rollercoaster ride up the chess rankings. Starting from a humble meh 100 back in early 2022 (and yes, that was rapid rating, not just a coffee score), flovdl skyrocketed to become a feared tactician with a current rapid rating hovering around the mid-400s.
Playing Strength & Style
Blessed with a comeback rate of 63.41%, flovdl loves the thrill of turning losing positions into surprising wins — a true phoenix rising from the ashes of missed moves. They don’t shy away from early resignations either, packing up only about 8.16% of the time when their circuits fry. When victorious, games average around 52 moves, but losses tend to drag on a bit longer (avg 56 moves), showcasing a stubborn fighting spirit.
Opening Repertoire
flovdl’s weapon of choice? The Scandinavian Defense, boasting a delicious 66.67% win rate — who knew Scandinavian tactics could be so effective? Other favored openings include the Queen's Pawn Chigorin Variation and the Philidor Defense, both yielding solid 59%+ win rates. Yet, beware the Nimzowitsch Defense where flovdl’s score dips to a modest 25%, proving even maestros have openings that haunt their dreams.
Record & Rivalries
Flovdl’s record is a heart-pounding neck-and-neck: 246 wins, 245 losses, and 17 draws in rapid games, which makes every match an adrenaline-fueled thrill. Their longest winning streak hit 8 games while the harsh side of chess saw a 9-game losing streak — highs and lows that add character to every battle.
Opponents beware! flovdl holds a perfect win streak (100%) against a slew of challengers such as kigjs, ibukealdi, and eeeeeeeem, but struggles against the lethal ulquiorraciferd and 16canda04, where victory always seems elusive.
Best Moves & Timing
The grandmaster-in-the-making performs best on Saturdays (60% win rate) and enjoys the magical hour of 11 AM, where moves mysteriously become sharper and blunders rarer. Their white pieces have a slight edge over black with a 49.4% win rate as White compared to 47.49% as Black — not quite Bobby Fischer level, but hey, no one’s perfect!
Recent Adventures on the Board
Among the latest battles, flovdl executed a stunning checkmate victory against kigjs in the Colle System — a game teeming with sacrifice, daring rook maneuvers, and a final flourish at move 51. But not all tales were victorious; a swift defeat by UlquiorraCiferD by checkmate came knocking recently, reminding us that flovdl’s journey is still growing and evolving.
Fun Fact
Despite the rollercoaster results, flovdl's psychological resilience is impressive with a low tilt factor of 9, proving that when the chips are down, flovdl keeps calm, analyses the chaos… and often comes back stronger.
In the fierce, pixelated battlefield of rapid chess, flovdl stands as a warrior who battles on — always learning, winning, sometimes losing, but never boring!
