Jakub Gregorczyk (aka grep0n) - Chess Enthusiast & Tactical Wizard

Meet Jakub Gregorczyk, who goes by the chessboard alter ego grep0n. Starting from a modest bullet rating of 486 in late 2022, Jakub's journey has been a rollercoaster of attacks, defenses, and the occasional facepaw moment — all part of the grand game of chess. As of mid-2025, Jakub has clawed his way up to an impressive bullet peak rating of 1335 and blitzing up to 1272—not world champion territory yet, but hey, no one’s winning all the time, right?

Jakub’s style can be described as resilient and resourceful. With an incredible comeback rate of 84.53%, relinquishing a piece doesn't mean surrender for him; it’s just another chance to make the opponent sweat. His average moves per win hover around 62, so if you're a fan of strategerie marathon games, you might just be in luck (or trouble). His best playtime? Right around 5 PM, making him the perfect evening sparring partner who probably still hasn't had their coffee.

Not one to quit early, Jakub’s early resignation rate is a mere 0.79%. He’s the kind of player who fights until the last pawn falls or the clock runs out—often the latter, since his games feature lots of exciting time scrambles.

Opening Repertoire (With a Dash of Mystery)

• Top Secret openings dominate his play, with over 4600 games and a near 50% win rate—clearly Jakub likes to keep his opponents guessing (and sometimes himself).
• He dabbles successfully in the Sicilian Defense Hyperaccelerated Dragon and Old Benoni Defense, both with solid win rates around 50% to 54%.
• Also experienced in less popular lines like the Englund Gambit, where he scores a cheeky 58% win rate. Risky? Maybe. Rewarding? Absolutely.

With a close-to-even win/loss record across hundreds of blitz and bullet games (win count roughly matches losses), Jakub embodies the spirit of a true club battler: never backing down, always clever, and slightly addicted to the thrill of the clock.

Recent Memorable Battle

On June 3rd, 2025, playing as Black against “ioanhehe,” Jakub clinched a victory by resignation after an intense 26-move tussle using the St. George Defense. He demonstrated excellent tactical awareness, grinding down the position until his opponent could no longer bear the pressure.

Behind the Scenes

Jakub is as comfortable running epic bullet marathons as he is in tactical blitz shootouts. His statistics show some uneven patches (longest losing streak of 12, longest winning streak of 10), so his mood might just fluctuate as much as his rating — but his tilt factor is a respectable 12%, proving he can handle the heat without melting down.

All in all, Jakub Gregorczyk (grep0n) is a fearless chess gladiator who loves the game’s chaos and beauty — and if you get paired with him, prepare for an entertaining fight!
