Alfred "Kalli" Kohler — aka Frankenpower
Meet Alfred, fondly known as Frankenpower in the chess community — a player whose games are as intense and unpredictable as his nickname suggests. With a penchant for chess battles spanning every time control, from bullet to daily, Alfred's journey through the 64 squares is both impressive and sprinkled with moments of endearing resilience.
Playing Profile
Alfred boasts peak ratings that reflect his versatile skills:
- Daily Chess: Peaked at an impressive 1720 in mid-2015, showcasing his deep strategic understanding.
- Rapid: Climbed to 1668 in late 2014 — don’t blink, or you’ll miss his tactical maneuvers!
- Blitz: Achieved a 1461 peak in early 2014, proving his quick thinking under pressure.
- Bullet: Registered a solid 1367 peak rating in March 2014, though some might argue bullet is just a caffeine-fueled blur.
The Stats
Kalli's experience is impressive, with thousands of games played! His Top Secret opening strategy has won him just over 52% of his games in blitz and rapid — that's better than most people do trying to find their keys in the morning.
Fun fact: Alfred holds a record of 1️⃣3️⃣ consecutive wins at his longest winning streak. On the flip side, he's endured a losing streak of 19 games — proving every superhero has their kryptonite.
Style and Quirks
Known for an average of about 70 moves per win in serious games, Alfred doesn't rush — he methodically dismantles opponents. With a tilt factor of 19, he has his moments, but his 75% comeback rate shows he's far from defeated until the final checkmate.
He loves playing in the early morning hours (best time: 5 AM), so if you get a game invite then, beware — caffeine and calculation collide!
Psychological Profile
Whether wielding white pieces with a 54.5% win rate, or defending with black at a respectable 50%, Alfred adapts beautifully. His tactical awareness shines, especially after setbacks — with nearly half the time bouncing back after losing a piece.
Recent Battles
Alfred's most recent victory was a graceful resignation win over lady-tatyana in a daily game, demonstrating his patience and strategic depth. Conversely, even legends stumble; his recent loss was by time to a formidable opponent named Blondicat.
Opponent Love-Hate
Among the many adversaries Alfred has faced, he enjoys strong win rates against some notable challengers—like "19karl50" (over 90% wins!). However, chess is a humbling game, and some opponents have kept him on his toes.
Behind the Scenes
When Alfred isn't plotting intricate endgames or blitzing fairy-tale attacks, he's probably perfecting his opening repertoire secretly labeled Top Secret — because who wants to share their favorite trap? 😉
In all, Alfred "Kalli" Kohler embodies a chess player who balances endurance, tactical ingenuity, and a touch of humor in his endless pursuit of checkmate glory.
