Meet Gofo22: The Chess Adventurer

In the vast kingdom of 64 squares, there lives a cunning and sometimes unpredictable warrior known as Gofo22. With a rapid rating peak of 721 achieved in early 2025, Gofo22 has proven they can shake up the board—but also know how to keep their cool when the pressure mounts.

A connoisseur of the Scandinavian Defense, the Englund Gambit, and occasionally the Blackmar Gambit, Gofo22’s opening repertoire is a charming mix of classic and spicy. Their favorite rapid defenses and gambits suggest they enjoy a bit of tactical flair, sometimes daring the opponent into uncomfortable territory. This player is not afraid to stir the pot—and the results are entertaining!

Gofo22’s style is a rollercoaster: boasting a longest winning streak of 8 games but also surviving a 10-game losing streak, proving that resilience and perseverance are part of the game. Their comeback rate of nearly 71% is a testament to never giving up, even when down in material or position. A high endgame frequency and an average of nearly 55 moves per win hint at battles that stretch deep into the strategic trenches.

When it comes to time controls, Gofo22 shines primarily in rapid chess, playing almost 200 games in a recent month! Bullet and blitz show flashes of skill but also a bit of chaos—perfect for those who like fast and furious fights across the board. Their tactical awareness sometimes leads to impressive reversals, though occasionally they fall victim to the ever-feared one-sided loss (12% of the time).

Psychologically, Gofo22 experiences only mild tilt, with a tilt factor of 10, and their prime time to wreak havoc on opponents is around 8 AM. That’s right — whether fueled by morning coffee or just pure chess passion, Gofo22’s brain is sharpest in the early hours.

On the black side, Gofo22 is a slightly better finisher (48.2% win rate) than on white, perhaps mastering the art of counterattack. Their habit of resigning early (about 5.5% of games) may be a strategic surrender or just saving energy for the next thrilling encounter.
