Profile: grievousgg

Meet grievousgg, a chess player whose rapid rating journey resembles a thrilling roller coaster ride through the ranks of 100 to a peak of 545 in just a few months of 2025. Starting out with a humble 234 in March, grievousgg quickly leveled up with a fighting spirit that wins half their rapid games and refuses to back down easily, boasting a comeback rate that would impress even the most seasoned comeback kings—63% of the time, they bounce back after setbacks.

If you fancy opening duels, grievousgg has a penchant for the Mieses Opening and the Van t Kruijs Opening, both yielding win rates around 60%. The Caro Kann Defense? Also a favorite playground, with some memorable victories including a recent 13-move resignation win. One might say this player enjoys shaking opponents up early and capitalizing on the French Defense variations as well—because who doesn’t love a good classical defense?

When not climbing the rapid ladder, grievousgg dabbles in blitz, where at a lightning-fast 581 rating (almost as fast as their moves), they’ve snagged a perfect win in their debut blitz game. Quick decisions and swift tactics define their blitz style, though they aren’t immune to blitz heartbreaks either, going 1-1 so far.

With an average game length numbering around 55 moves when winning, and slightly fewer when losing, this player clearly enjoys a good strategic battle rather than quick skirmishes—unless it’s blitz, of course. They have a balanced attack playing both white and black pieces, with win rates near 50% on either side. Brace yourself: grim resignation might be their not-so-secret move, as they often close games by getting opponents to concede rather than force checkmate every time.

Psychologically, grievousgg admits to a tilt factor of 8 (because who doesn’t rage a little after a tough loss?), but they’re best at their game around 9 AM sharp—probably fueled by caffeine and morning determination. Opponents beware: afternoons and evenings may see more mixed results, but the mornings are when this player’s brain truly awakens to deliver tactical blows.

Their competitive spirit is clear in their records against some familiar foes. With a perfect 100% win rate against opponents like bahridaud and ritevac, but losing occasionally in tricky matches against the likes of resenko, grievousgg proves to be both a formidable foe and a humble student of the game.

Not all battles end in glory though: the longest winning streak is a proud 10 games, while on the flip side, an 8-game losing streak proves this player knows the humbling taste of defeat too well. Yet, with each loss comes a comeback—after all, they win over 41% of games even after losing a piece. That’s resilience.

In summary, grievousgg is a passionate, strategic rapid chess player with flashes of blitz brilliance, a tendency to startle opponents early with tricky openings, and a psychological edge sharpened by morning play and endless determination. Expect unexpected twists, early resignations from foes, and a journey filled with both triumphs and the occasional hilarious setbacks on the 64 squares.
