Ghost-036: The Enigmatic Chess Phantom

In the shadowy realms of online chess boards, Ghost-036 haunts the ranks with a Rapid rating hovering just above 1050 and Blitz prowess nearly matching it at 1044. Known for an impressive comeback ability (boasting an 88% comeback rate!), Ghost-036 rarely stays down for long and is more likely to ghost past you than be caught in a hopeless position.

Strategic Signature

This spectral competitor favors the Scandinavian Defense in Rapid games, where Ghost-036 gleefully claims victory in all three showcased encounters with it—no ghosts here, just pure dominance. When not wreaking havoc with the Scandinavian, expect some flirtation with the King's Gambit Accepted and Ponziani Opening Jaenisch Counterattack, sprinkling unpredictability onto every move.

Wraithlike Stats

Overall Rapid win rate: 59.4% (19 wins, 12 losses, 1 draw over 32 games)
Blitz performance slightly stronger: 63.2% win rate with 24 wins in 38 games
Longest winning streak stands at a chilling 8 consecutive wins — a phantom streak indeed.
Known to resign early only about 4.5% of the time, proving Ghost-036 battles until the end.

Playing Style & Psychology

Ghost-036 combines patience and calculated aggression, averaging 51 moves to victory, which means the ghost lingers long enough to set lethal traps. With a higher win rate playing White (68.6%) than Black (54.3%), it’s no surprise that the ghost strikes hardest after dawn—particularly around 7 A.M., the witching hour for brilliant play. Beware the spectral wrath when playing on Tuesdays, where the win rate peaks impressively at 75%.

Though not infallible, Ghost-036’s recent losses often come at the hands of skilled foes like DineshMoonD0, but even in defeat, this player spooks their rivals with tricky tactics and high resilience.
