Profile Summary: guyestre

Enter the intriguing world of guyestre, a chess player whose rapid rating journey resembles a roller coaster with a steady climb to new heights. Starting 2025 with a rapid rating around 350-400, guyestre steadily surged to an impressive peak of 755 in May, before gracefully stabilizing near the 720 mark by June. Their blitz experience may be limited—with a max rating of 437 from a single game—but every chess master must start somewhere!

A bold tactician with a penchant for the King's Pawn Opening (where they boast nearly a 60% win rate), guyestre also enjoys dabbling in the Scandinavian Defense and variations of the King's Knight. While some openings show mixed results (looking at you, Leonardis Variation with only ~40% wins), overall their style screams “I came to fight!” and with an impressive longest winning streak of 10 games, it’s clear that once guyestre gets in the groove, it’s tough to stop them.

Speaking of toughness, guyestre has a remarkable comeback rate of 72% — a chess phoenix rising from the ashes of lost pieces. Even after losing material, they still win nearly half their games, which speaks volumes about their fighting spirit (and maybe a sneaky tactical flair). But beware their tilt factor of 8, showing some human crack under pressure—because nobody's perfect, right?

When does guyestre shine brightest? The early morning hours at 2 AM seem to be their prime time, where concentration peaks—maybe fueled by caffeine, night owls, or sheer willpower. Also, they’re surprisingly effective on Saturdays and Fridays, with win rates over 60%. Playing on Sunday or Thursday is less exciting though, with lower success rates—maybe it's reserved for brunch and naps.

Playing Style Highlights

  • Average Moves per Win: ~58 — patient and strategic, not just blitzing out.
  • Average Moves per Loss: ~68 — fights till the bitter end.
  • Ends games by resignation often (131 wins), but never afraid to push for the checkmate (113 wins).

Opponent Encounters & Records

In Conclusion

guyestre may not yet be a grandmaster legend, but their rapid ascent, tactical resilience, and quirky night-owl playing hours make them a formidable and memorable competitor in the online chess cosmos. Whether plotting a comeback or riding a hot streak, they always keep the game exciting—powered by strategy, coffee, and a hint of mischief.
