Chess Player Profile: Гойдаков
Meet Гойдаков (or simply Goydakov for the friends who don't speak Cyrillic),
a chess enthusiast blazing through the rapid and daily ranks in 2025 with the spirit of a strategic gladiator and the heart of a relentless fighter.
Rating Rollercoaster & Style
In the world of rapid chess, Гойдаков reached a roaring peak rating of 582 back in March 2025,
a rating that surely sent shivers through blackboards everywhere. Though the journey often resembled a rollercoaster
with highs and lows (earning a current rapid rating steady at 391), his grit remains impressive: a win rate that surpasses 50% in many openings and endurance worthy of a chess marathon.
Whether wielding the Queens Pawn Opening (a personal favorite, boasting an impressive 65%+ win rate!) or cunningly testing the waters with the Englund Gambit (where Гойдаков’s win rate skyrockets to 80%), this player isn’t shy of experimentation.
Battlefield Highlights
- Rapid: 72 wins against 59 losses, with a solid handful of draws.
- Daily chess shows a small but mighty win record: 5 wins in 8 games.
- Bullet and Blitz formats? A seasoned novice, still sharpening the reflexes with some tough battles.
Fun Facts & Quirks
- Longest winning streak: 5 games — not bad at all for a strategic mind recovering from a rocky start!
- Longest losing streak: 6 games — because even chess warriors face “ouch” moments.
- Plays best during unusual hours, with a mysterious peak skill time at 4:00 AM. Night owl or early bird? Both, apparently.
- Has an endgame frequency near 39%, proving patience and perseverance when the stakes are highest.
- Sometimes resigns early (~18% resignation rate), perhaps preferring a diplomatic exit over a slow checkmate dance.

Psychological & Tactical Edge

With a style favoring calculated aggression and timely sacrifices, and a mysterious preference for battles fought under the moonlit sky, expect more surprises and epic clashes from this rising star.
