Profile: growencs

Meet growencs, a rapidly evolving chess enthusiast who has been fighting battles on the 64 squares with colorful ups and downs throughout 2025. Known for a rollercoaster ride in Rapid rating peaking at 866, growencs shows resilience and a touch of flair in every game.

Chess Journey & Style

With a Rapid record almost perfectly balanced (285 wins to 284 losses), growencs is no stranger to the sweet agony of near parity — a true gladiator of the middle ground. Their Blitz and Bullet performances have room for growth, but hey, no one’s perfect at rocket-speed chess right off the bat.

Not just a tactician but also a strategist, growencs favors openings like the King's Pawn Opening, the Van ‘t Kruijs Opening, and the French Defense, pulling off some decent win rates such as 61.54% with the French Defense and a cheeky 56.25% in the Van ‘t Kruijs. When speed is key, the King's Pawn Opening dominates their Blitz games with an 83% win rate — quick and sharp!

Psychology & Play Patterns

Playing best at a mysterious hour of 5 AM, growencs has mastered the art of the morning blitzkrieg—who knew the early bird catches the chess worm?

  • Longest winning streak: 12 games (yes, a domination streak worthy of a chess tale)
  • Longest losing streak: 8 games (because every hero faces trials)
  • Early resignations rate: only 4.11% (a fighter, never a quitter!)
  • Average moves per win: just under 50, proving they grind out victories with patience

Notable Opponent Records

Some rivals enjoy an easy time against growencs, but many taste defeat repeatedly. For example, against benhnb and uncle_drapper, growencs boasts a perfect win record (100% wins!), while others like mxfemtio have managed to keep growencs to a mere 45% success rate.

Recent Battles

Recent games underline a flair for dramatic endings by checkmate:

In one thrilling Rapid game, using the King's Pawn Opening Leonardis Variation, growencs secured a checkmate victory against benhnb — concluding the duel with an elegant Qxe2# finish after a tense tactical battle.

Just a day before, growencs conquered uncle_drapper with the French Defense, another checkmate victory that showcased clever positional play and relentless pressure.

In a Nutshell

growencs is the kind of player who can shock you with a brilliant opening or frustrate with relentless stubbornness. Though the road to chess mastery is paved with equal parts wins and losses here, the #1 rule is clear: never back down. Expect more unexpected checkmates, daring comebacks (with a comeback rate of over 77%), and an ever-adapting style that fights best when the rest of the world sleeps.

Keep an eye on growencs—this player is still cooking up some chess magic, one move at a time.
