Profile Summary: good0knight
Meet good0knight, a relentless chess warrior whose journey through the 64 squares is as full of ups and downs as a rollercoaster designed by a grandmaster with a sense of humor.
Rating Rollercoaster
Since 2023, good0knight has made steady progress, climbing the ladder from a Rapid rating in the 500s to a stable and respectable peak of 1138 in April 2024. While Bullet and Blitz scores have flirted with the 500s and 800s respectively, it’s the Rapid format where this player shines brightest — a true gladiator of longer time controls.
Playing Style & Strengths
Endgames are practically good0knight's second home, appearing in nearly 60% of their games. A patient tactician, they tend to average about 56 moves per victory, taking their time to outwit opponents rather than rushing for quick thrills. With a comeback rate of over 82%, this player knows how to dance on the edge and flip the tables when things look bleak. Just don’t ask them to play after 3AM because the “tilt factor” clocks in at 9 — evidently, checkmating before coffee is still a challenge.
Opening Arsenal
Armed heavily with the Scotch Game, boasting a win rate of 70.16% in Rapid games, good0knight’s repertoire makes it clear they prefer tactical melees and classical central control. Other favorites include the Caro-Kann variations, Ruy Lopez, Italian Game, and a mysterious “Top Secret” opening — because every great player needs a few secrets up their sleeve.
Recent Battles
Good0knight just recently triumphed with a flashy checkmate, dispatching TankTurretTom in a nimble game full of strategic finesse and sharp attacks. But every knight knows that losses are lessons wrapped in disappointment — their latest setback came against Heolyto, reminding us all that even skilled players sometimes stumble on the battlefield.
Fun Facts
- Longest winning streak: 19 games. That’s almost like a mini Grandmaster streak!
- Wins more often playing White (60.87%) than Black, but hey, who doesn’t enjoy the first-move advantage?
- Early resignations are rare — just under 3% — so expect good0knight to fight for every pawn and square.
- Average game length is longer in losses than in wins, proving sometimes patience pays off and sometimes it just prolongs the suffering.
The Final Word
Whether you're facing good0knight across the board or cheering them on from the sidelines, one thing is clear: this player fights fiercely, recovers quickly, and loves the art of chess in all its tactical glory. Next time you meet them online, be prepared — they bring the "knight" to good fight!
