Meet gringus1313, a relentless warrior of the chessboard who has danced the rapid, blitz, bullet, and daily formats with gusto and a healthy dose of resilience. Sporting a peak rapid rating of 1535 achieved in August 2022, gringus1313 has experienced the thrilling rollercoaster of a chess journey: highs that make the crowd cheer and lows that teach valuable lessons (and perhaps a sip of coffee).

With over 4,498 rapid games played in the "Top Secret" opening category alone, gringus1313 maintains a near-even win record, boasting a modest 48.02% win rate. This chess adventurer embraces the unpredictability of the game, having logged more than 4,500 battles where every pawn push and knight hop tells a story of calculated risk.

Blitz and bullet games show a fighter who likes a fast-paced challenge, with peak ratings of 1349 and 1080 respectively. Indeed, gringus1313 is a lightning thinker, though bullet wins tip the scales at a humbler 25% win rate — a reminder that even speed demons sometimes stumble over the clock!

When it comes to endurance, gringus1313 can truly be called a marathoner: an average game length hovers around 63 moves, displaying tenacity and a penchant for deep, strategic battles rather than quick skirmishes. The endgame is their playground, engaging in this phase more than 64% of the time, proving that patience is one of their virtues.

Psychologically, our friend has a bit of a tilt factor at 14%, meaning a few losses might provoke some colorful thoughts — but who doesn’t grumble after a missed mate in one? Interestingly, their best play tends to shine at the witching hour — midnight — when most humans sleep but gringus1313 commands the board.

Their comeback rate is a heroic 76.43%, meaning when the chips are down and pieces are lost, gringus1313 fights back with the spirit of a chess gladiator. But even masters have their Achilles heels, as wins after losing pieces sit at about 44%.

Known rivals include larryle_malicieux, having faced them 104 times with a win rate edging just under 60%, showcasing some competitive friction that probably fuels many cinematic battles.

Memorable Victory

Playing Style in a Nutshell

  • Occasionally resigns early (3.18%) — because sometimes it’s smarter to save energy (and dignity).

In short, gringus1313 is an ever-evolving chess contender, mixing strategic depth, midnight magic, and gritty determination — with a dash of humor to soften every tricky defeat.
