Temo Gochashvili (aka GGWP-2) - The Chess Adventurer
Meet Temo Gochashvili, better known by the username GGWP-2, a chess player whose journey resembles a thrilling rollercoaster—fast, unpredictable, and sprinkled with moments of brilliance and humility. With a 2025 peak rapid rating of 449, Temo is a rapidly evolving contender striving to outwit opponents and own the board every time.
Statistics That Tell a Story
- Rapid: Played 401 games with nearly equal wins and losses (190 wins vs. 188 losses), showing true grit and persistence. A stout average rating of ~417 keeps Temo competitive.
- Daily: Lower volume but don’t let that fool you — with a rough start and a rocky win-loss record (3 wins, 18 losses), it’s clear Temo battles on, learning from every move.
- Bullet & Blitz: Lightning speed games where Temo’s average bullet rating hovers around 196 and blitz around 129. Fast and sometimes furious, but never dull.
Opening Repertoire – From Classics to Surprises
Temo loves unleashing openings that confuse and conquer. His favorite is the Scandinavian Defense in Rapid, boasting an almost legendary 89% win rate over 9 games (take that, skeptics!). The Queen's Pawn Opening Chigorin Variation is another pet—an untouchable 100% win rate in 8 games, because why not dominate in style?
Temo doesn’t shy away from mixing things up; expect anything from Alekhine's Defense to the King's Pawn Opening, crafting fresh battles every time.
Playing Style and Psychology
If chess were a movie, Temo would be the suspenseful thriller full of unexpected twists. He has a comeback rate of nearly 60%, meaning if the chips are down, your king better watch out—GGWP-2 will claw back! His win rate after losing a piece is a perfect 100%, proving that Temo isn't afraid to fight dirty or sacrificially.
While the early resignation rate is around 10%, Temo shows stamina and resilience with an endgame frequency above 50%, often digging deep and turning the tides where others might fold. But beware of the infamous “Tilt Factor” of 7 — chess is serious business until it isn't.
Memorable Games
Temo's latest victories are as spectacular as his style. For example, in a rapid battle against “Aiz-Kazmi,” Temo used the Owens Defense (B00) to deliver a swift and elegant checkmate after only 17 moves. That’s both tactical mastery and a bit of cheekiness rolled into one.
