Psychological trends? Check. Her best time of day to play? Apparently, 6 AM — the early bird gets the winning gambit! Although a tilt factor of 7 hints she might silently grumble after a losing streak, she quickly regains her composure.

Favorite Openings & Opponents

Marianna likes to keep her opening secrets close, playing "Top Secret" variations extensively in blitz, bullet, and rapid, bringing an enigmatic flair to her battles. However, in bullet games, she’s also dabbled in Philidor Defense Hanham Lion Variation and the occasional Queen’s Pawn Opening Tartakower Variation — proving she doesn't shy away from classical structures.

Opponents beware! Marianna sports a 100% win rate against quite a few rivals, including griesgramix, pier1000, and alicisayamshchikova. Some players just seem to be her personal highlight reel.
