GUST_b: The Candidate Master on a Quest for Chess Glory

Meet GUST_b, a player whose chess journey reads like a thrilling blend of strategy, speed, and a dash of mystery. Earning the prestigious title of Candidate Master from FIDE, GUST_b has demonstrated skill that belies the username's cryptic simplicity.

Rising through the ranks with a blitz peak rating of 2639 (June 2023) and a bullet apex of 2666 (December 2022), GUST_b is one of those players who thrive when the clock ticks down and the pressure’s on. Rapid play? A solid 2200 peak rating means they're no stranger to longer challenges either.

Their style? Let’s just say GUST_b doesn’t shy away from battles that last. With an average of nearly 80 moves per win and a passion for endgames played 77% of the time, this player clearly enjoys the grind as much as the glory. Contrary to the stereotypical blitz monster, they combine patience with tactical sharpness – as proven by an impressive 86.91% comeback rate. Losing a piece? No worries, GUST_b still wins nearly half of those fights.

When it comes to openings, GUST_b's repertoire is as diverse as it is effective. Favorites include the Alapin Sicilian Defense and the English Opening Caro-Kann Defensive System, each boasting a win rate north of 55% in blitz, indicating a deep understanding and confidence in complex positions. And if you think they're all about slow geduld, think again: an 80% win rate in bullet games using the Alapin Sicilian proves lightning-fast brilliance too.

This player has battled it out against the likes of turquoise_2701, judgeworld, and darkfire06 over 50 times each—classic rivalries that keep the fire burning. And while some opponents seem to be perfect fodder (looking at you, cheesebreadfuzzyhead and duypdt with 100% win rates), others keep GUST_b on their toes.

Psychologically, GUST_b is a model of composure with a low early resignation rate (~2%), but a tilt factor of 10 reminds us even the best have their "chess rage" moments. Best time to challenge this master? 2 PM, when their win rate hits above 50%, apparently fueled by a well-timed coffee or sheer genius.
