ForLes13: The Enigmatic Chess Adventurer
Meet ForLes13, a chess player whose style is as mysterious as their favorite opening — fittingly called "Top Secret." In 2025, ForLes13 rampaged through the rapid format, reaching a max rating of 352 and hanging around an average of 279, showcasing a solid mix of skill, resilience, and a hint of unpredictability.
With nearly 200 rapid games under their belt, they won 93, lost 96, and drew 5 — proving that life (and chess) is a rollercoaster, not a smooth highway. Bullet chess is where ForLes13 truly shines, boasting a perfect 400 rating across nine games, although it seems blitz remains a work in progress with just a single game logged.
Their opening repertoire is delightfully eclectic. While "Top Secret" dominates with nearly 175 rapid games played and a near 49% win rate, they also dabble in classics like the King's Pawn Opening (100% win rate in 3 games) and the French Defense Knight Variation, which yields perfect results in the sole clash.
ForLes13 doesn't back down easily. Their longest winning streak is an impressive eight games, and they currently ride a modest two-game streak. Psychologically, this player knows how to bounce back — boasting a 36% comeback rate and a remarkable 100% win rate after losing a piece, making their opponents wonder if giving up material is actually encouraged.
When the clock strikes during the afternoon and early evening (12 PM to 6 PM), ForLes13's win rates hover around a hearty 50-66%, although a late evening slump at 7-8 PM reminds us even chess warriors need coffee breaks.
Known rivals include n34t0 (25 encounters, 28 matches overall) and lave321 (15 battles), yet ForLes13’s win rates against many opponents range from heroic 100%s to humbling 0%s — highlighting a career marked by both epic triumphs and instructive defeats.
In short, ForLes13 is not just a player; they're a chess tale — part strategist, part gladiator, and all-around fun enigma who keeps their opponents guessing and fans entertained. Whether sneaking a surprise Anderssen Opening or calmly dissecting a French Defense, ForLes13 reminds us all that chess isn’t just a game; it’s an adventure.
