Profile: guzzmann1628
In the tempestuous world of online chess, guzzmann1628 emerges as an intrepid tactician and a rollercoaster ride of epic proportions. With a penchant for quick thinking and a not-so-secret love for dramatic finishes, guzzmann1628's games are never short on excitement.
A Journey Through the Ranks
His bullet rating reached a dazzling peak of 861 in early 2025, a rating that suggests lightning-fast fingers almost as swift as his decision-making — sometimes too swift, given his 12.5% early resignation rate. In rapid chess, he soared to a respectable 663, showcasing his strategic chops when given just a bit more breathing room.
Opening Sorcery
Guzzmann1628 favors dynamic and somewhat unorthodox openings. The King's Pawn Opening and King's Fianchetto Opening bring him plenty of joy, each boasting a hearty 66.67% win rate in rapid games. However, the poor Owens Defense tends to be his Achilles’ heel, with only a 28.57% success rate—likely the opening equivalent of stepping on a LEGO in the middle of the night.
Playing Style and Psychological Quirks
An average game for guzzmann1628 lasts around 50-60 moves, indicating deep battles rather than snapping pawns off the board in a rush. Despite a tilt factor of 9 (which means he’s only moderately grumpy after tough losses), his comeback rate dazzles at 80%—hardly surprising knowing he’s played 153 blitz games and bounced back from all sorts of hardships.
He’s equally comfortable playing white or black, with a slight edge when holding the white pieces (winning 50.88% of the time). He's known for a love-hate relationship with endgames, reaching them over half the time and fighting tooth and nail to claim victory—or at least a draw.
Victory and Defeat Highlights
One of his crown jewels is a beautifully executed checkmate against eljko_1605003, where he danced through the Scandinavian Defense waters and delivered a spotless finish in just 14 moves!
But chess is a humbling game, and guzzmann1628 knows it well—his recent losses, including a gritty resignation in a Philidor Defense, remind us all that even the best falter sometimes.
Opponent Dynamics
Guzzmann1628 shines when facing lesser-rated opponents and often struggles against those above his rating—a common tale in the arena of online chess. His most-played opponents include tytytytttyyy117 (3 games) and karriiz (2 games), with mixed results that suggest he treasures a good rivalry, win or lose.
Fun Facts
- Best time to challenge him: Around 12 PM, when his win rate peaks (63.64%).
- If you hope to lead mid-game by snagging a piece, beware — guzzmann1628 still wins 45% of these battles.
- He has a secret flair for the King's Fianchetto Opening Symmetrical Variation in bullet, boasting a perfect 100% win rate there. Not bad for something that sounds like a medieval tongue-twister!
All in all, guzzmann1628 is a resilient player with a taste for bold openings and a knack for drama. May your pawns stay safe if you ever dare to face this cunning contender!

Hi guzzmann1628! 👋
You’ve played enough games now that clear patterns are starting to appear. Below is a short, focused report to help you move from the 600-range toward the next milestone.
1. What you’re already doing well
- Tactical alertness. In your last win you punished eljko_1605003 with the neat
10.Qxb7/13.Qxa8+/14.Qd8#sequence. Spotting loose pieces this quickly is a big asset. - Not afraid to sacrifice. Ideas such as
6.Nxf7!?in the Philidor show healthy aggression. Even if the follow-up needs polishing, the willingness to calculate is valuable. - Playing fast but not reckless. Most of your wins finish with 1-3 minutes still on the clock, which means you’re keeping pace without severe time pressure.
2. Biggest improvement opportunities (next 2-3 weeks)
- King safety before pawn storms. Several losses (e.g. vs. nertilos89) feature early
g4/h4pushes while your king is still in the centre. Castle first, then decide if a pawn storm is really necessary. - Piece coordination over material grabs. In the Philidor loss to vikasd90 you won two pawns (
Nxf7/Nxh8) but fell behind in development and were crushed. Ask: “After my capture, are all my pieces working together?” - Central control. When you play ...
f5or allow ...d4breaks, you often lose the fight for the dark squares. Aim to keep at least one pawn in the centre on the 4th/5th rank.
3. Concrete action plan
- Daily tactics: 15 minutes/day of basic puzzles (mate in 2-3, hanging pieces). Focus on patterns: forks, pins, skewers, discovered attacks.
- The “10/10 rule” for development: In the first 10 moves, try to have 10 “points” of development (e.g. each minor piece developed = 2 points, castling = 2 points). If you’re behind, forget side attacks and catch up.
- Post-game checklist: After every game, note (a) first move your queen made, (b) move number you castled, (c) how many of your pieces were still on their home squares when tactics started. You’ll quickly see repeated leaks.
4. Quick opening notes
• Against the Scandinavian (1…d5): your 3.Nc3 Qd8 4.d4 line is fine. Just remember not to chase the queen with minor pieces if it costs tempi.
• Philidor & Pirc set-ups: don’t rush Nxf7 sacs unless you have at least two more attackers ready.
• If you face the French: replace 3.f3 with the simple 3.Nc3 or 3.Nd2. It keeps development smooth and avoids blocking your own pieces.
5. Tactics highlight from your last win
6. Motivation corner
Your current best Rapid rating is 663 (2025-06-03). Keep an eye on when you perform best (and worst) with the charts below—schedule your “serious” games during your strongest hour of the day.
7. Next step
Play a short match vs. a friend or bot where your only goal is to finish development and castle by move 8. Forget the result—just ingrain the habit. Combine that with daily tactics and you’ll notice a rating bump within two weeks.
Good luck, have fun, and feel free to share your next set of games for more feedback!
