Profile of Gitemrugo
Meet Gitemrugo, a rapid chess enthusiast who bravely battles on the 64 squares with a peak rating of 798 achieved in May 2025. Though their journey on the chessboard hasn’t been without its tumbles—boasting a win/loss record of 77-96 with a sprinkle of draws—Gitemrugo’s spirit is undeterred and their games always full of surprises.
Chess Style & Play
Known for an adventurous opening repertoire, Gitemrugo shows a particular fondness for the Queen's Pawn Opening Chigorin Variation and the Englund Gambit, with win rates of 53% and a striking 64% respectively. Their preference for sharp, tactical skirmishes sometimes leads to early resignations (about one-third of their losses), but also sets the stage for thrilling comebacks, as their 56% comeback rate testifies.
With an average of nearly 50 moves to victory, Gitemrugo is not in a rush to finish; patient maneuvering is their forte. Interestingly, they have a better track record when playing White (50% wins) than Black (37%), so don’t be surprised if they greet you with the first move d4 and a cheeky grin.
Moments of Glory & Most Recent Battles

But it’s not always smooth sailing. Their longest losing streak is an eight-game marathon, with opponents like felat212147 and erz_a proving to be tough nuts to crack. Despite this, Gitemrugo shows resilience and learns from every setback.
