Profile Summary: francisdnzt

Meet francisdnzt, a persistent and determined chess enthusiast whose journey resembles a rollercoaster on a giant chessboard! Starting from a modest rapid rating of 893 in early 2019, they quickly climbed to just above 1190, proving early on that the "Pawn's way" requires some grit and a dash of wizardry.

Over the years, francisdnzt has logged thousands of rapid games (over 3,000!), boasting a near-thousand victories. Though the losses sometimes outnumber wins, this player embodies the spirit of the chess fight: taking losses in stride and coming back stronger. Notably, their comeback rate is an impressive 65.63%—get ready for a thrilling turnaround when you face them!

The openings repertoire reads like a love letter to classic battles: the King's Pawn Opening is their trusty steed, with nearly 250 games and a solid 50% win rate. Variations such as the King's Knight Variation, Scotch Game, and delightful spicy defenses like the Scandinavian and Philidor are all on their menu. They even flirt with lesser trodden paths like the Van't Kruijs Opening, where they shine brightest with a >54% win record. A true connoisseur of the chess battlefield!

In blitz and bullet formats, the story varies—a promising blast in blitz at over 1200 max rating in 2019, but recent years have been a bit of a wild west with fluctuating results. Bullets have taught patience (and humility), but solid tactical awareness stands firm, demonstrated by their perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece—a rare prodigy move that says "I will crush you even when behind!"

Playing style? Francisdnzt prefers battles that test endurance: averaging around 55-58 moves per game, they enjoy deep endgames (nearly 55% frequency), and rarely surrender early (early resignation rate of ~5%). Caution? Maybe a bit—"Tilt factor" of 11 warns of some emotional spikes when the kings clash, but isn't that the spice that makes chess such a thrilling sport?

Their psychological edge is particularly visible against some opponents: flawless records against many, including notable 100% wins versus aaroneditz, grossmeister_krafft, and vishal_the_goat—and yes, they recently checkmated the latter in their latest rapid duel!

When does francisdnzt play best? The clock shows subtle hints: evenings around 19-21 hours UTC mark stronger win rates (above 50%), but strangely 5 AM boasts an impressive 60% success—perhaps they're a secret morning strategist or just fueled by coffee and sheer determination.
