Player Profile: grenq01

Meet grenq01, a chess warrior whose battlefield spans rapid, blitz, and bullet formats with a flair that’s as unpredictable as a squirrel on caffeine. Sporting a rapid rating that’s seen swings from 349 to 631 and currently sitting at a humble 466 in 2025, grenq01 might not be holding the world championship belt just yet, but is definitely in the ring throwing punches and occasionally landing some knockout blows.

With nearly 370 rapid games under their belt, grenq01’s rapid play style is as vigorous as it is resilient—162 wins, 171 losses, and some draws thrown in for good measure. Blitz and bullet games reveal a player who dips toes into faster waters, with blitz rating averaging just under 280 and bullet games (a modest 8 played) showing a balanced 50% win rate.

Opening Repertoire – The Rapid Fire Arsenal

When it comes to openings, grenq01 favors the classic King’s Pawn Opening like a cat loves knocking things off tables, with nearly 100 games recorded there and a solid 42% win rate. But don't let that fool you; the player has a surprising knack for the Scandinavian Defense in rapid games, crushing opponents with an impressive nearly 73% win rate. Other favorites include the Van 't Kruijs Opening and Bishop's Opening, each contributing to a colorful and eclectic chess palette.

Psychological and Tactical Traits

Known for a comeback rate of over 67% and a perfect 100% win rate even after losing a piece, grenq01 refuses to throw in the towel early. This player’s tilt factor, a modest 7, means frustrations rarely get the better of them — except perhaps when the clock is ticking down to the wire!

Indeed, grenq01 seems to thrive under pressure, often capitalizing on opponents running low on time (their last win came on time victory after a tactical slugfest). The average game clocks in around 58 moves for wins and a cautious 62 for losses — a testament to their patience and perseverance.

Favorite Times and Opponents

Oddly enough, grenq01’s highest win rate hour is noon (a spotless 100%), potentially because food-powered brains calculate tactics best right before the lunch break. Mid-evening battles (9pm and 11pm) are less fortunate, with win rates dropping, suggesting chess and bedtime are a tricky combo.

Having tangled with many foes online, grenq01’s most relentless rivalries include drova_71 (100% wins!) and mattiavicidomini (a tougher 0% win rate). Whether friend or foe, grenq01 approaches chess with a mix of strategy, humor, and a knack for sneaky variations.

Memorable Matches

The last few games highlight a flair for clean, tactical finishes including a brilliant queen-side checkmate and a gutsy game won on time in a nerve-wracking rapid duel. With games narrated by dramatic blunders and comebacks, grenq01 shows that chess is as much about style and story as it is about stats.

In short: grenq01 is a spirited player with a chess toolbox that’s part textbook, part wild card — a player that can frustrate, surprise, and entertain any opponent daring enough to sit across the board.
