Player Profile: GugaCarol

Since first appearing on the chess scene in 2021, GugaCarol has demonstrated a passion for diverse time controls and a commitment to continuous improvement. Their ratings have climbed steadily from initial Rapid games in 2021, eventually reaching new heights in multiple formats—most notably a Daily rating peak of 938 in 2024.

Rapid remains one of the cornerstones of GugaCarol’s journey, with well over a thousand total wins and a best rating of 667 achieved in 2024. In Daily games, consistency shines through: starting at 654 in 2022 and peaking at 938 in 2024. Though Bullet action is infrequent (one recorded match so far), Blitz has seen a high volume of competition, topping out at 558 in 2024 and continuing into 2025.

Across all formats, one of GugaCarol’s favored opening choices has been the Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack, delivering a noteworthy success rate in both Rapid and Blitz. Notably, they’ve also experimented with a wide variety of openings—from the Van ’t Kruijs to the French Defense—reflecting a willingness to explore creative lines.

In terms of raw numbers, GugaCarol has enjoyed an impressive longest winning streak of 13 games. Their match records reveal a willingness to battle into endgames (over 63% of games reach that stage), and a knack for comebacks (a comeback rate above 66%). Statistically, Saturday has proven the best day to play (with nearly half of those games ending in victory), and evening hours around 21:00 yield a notable peak in performance.

With over three years of play already on the books, plus an ongoing push to refine openings and strategies, GugaCarol shows no signs of slowing down. Their passion for chess, strong finishing skills, and dedication to trying new approaches promise further growth and achievements in the seasons to come.
