Profile Summary: FromThis

FromThis is a chess enthusiast navigating the battlefield of 64 squares with tenacity and an adventurous spirit. Rated across Blitz, Rapid, and Daily formats, FromThis’s journey is a tapestry woven with both triumphs and learning moments.

Rating Peaks & Trends

  • Blitz Peak Rating: 878 (December 2022) – a solid skirmisher in fast-paced games.
  • Rapid Peak Rating: 1032 (October 2024) – where FromThis really flexes, showing strategic patience.
  • Daily Peak Rating: 800 (December 2024) – savoring the slower burn of chess cuisine.

Playing Style & Strengths

Known for an Early Resignation Rate of about 15%, FromThis isn't shy about conceding a lost cause but balances it with an Endgame Frequency of over 37%, proving resilience and love for the critical moments where games are won or lost.

With an average of 51 moves per win and 40 moves per loss, this player enjoys long battles, often pushing towards a dramatic finish.

The win rates are a tad higher with the white pieces (51.2%) than black (46.3%), a classic chess tale of the first-move advantage.

Tactical Awareness & Psychological Profile

FromThis shines in comebacks with an impressive 64.3% comeback rate – if knocked down, this player bounces back with style!

However, the Tilt Factor of 11 shows some frustration flares, because hey, who doesn’t get a little salty when losing streaks hit (and losing streaks of up to 11 games have been survived)!

Best time to catch FromThis at their sharpest is early in the morning around 9 AM, where the brain probably hasn’t wandered off to lunch menus yet.

Favorite Openings

FromThis enjoys mixing classical and occasionally audacious lines:

  • Englund Gambit: Fearlessly chaotic with a solid 50%+ win rate in Blitz and Rapid.
  • Italian Game: Classic chess romance with nearly 50% success over hundreds of games.
  • King's Pawn Openings: Mostly standard fare with steady outcomes and a notable edge in the King's Knight Variation boasting 55.8% wins in Blitz.
  • Scandinavian Defense (Mieses-Kotrc): A bit less orthodox but FromThis uses it with over 53% success in Blitz—a true chess rebel.

Recent Battles & Memorable Moments

The latest highlight is a crushing victory against ribatemlak where FromThis, playing white, delivered a checkmate inspired by a classic King's Pawn Opening - King's Knight Variation. In another thrilling game, FromThis triumphed by resignation against opponents daring to challenge the Englund Gambit, proving that gambits can indeed pay off—even if risky.

That said, not every day is a feast; recent losses include a brutal checkmate against AndresP90 and some tough endgames against other opponents, reminding us that chess is as humbling as it is exhilarating.

Stats Snapshot

  • Total Blitz Wins/Losses: 2114 wins - 2114 losses (a perfect display of chess karma)
  • Rapid Wins/Losses: 1512 wins - 1497 losses
  • Daily Wins/Losses: Equal footing with 1 win and 1 loss (chess is serious business, even in daily focus!)

Fun Facts & Quirks

With a tendency to resign early about 15% of the time, FromThis might be the champion of knowing when to fold 'em and when to double down. Also, despite some ups and downs, this player’s psychological stamina keeps them coming back for more — after all, who hasn’t lost a few games and then stormed back with a vengeance?

In short: FromThis is a spirited player, balancing gritty determination, a love of classic openings, and a flair for comebacks, proving chess is more about the journey—and the memes you accumulate—than just the raw rating points.
