With a peak rapid rating of 1005 (achieved in February 2025), Hasham_123 plays a blend of hopeful offense and strategic defense—qualities that make every game an unpredictable thrill ride.
Starting 2025 with a rating rollercoaster that dipped as low as 130 and soared back above 400, this player shows stamina and a never-quit attitude, accumulating nearly 800 rapid games and a tightly fought win/loss ratio (390 wins to 370 losses). Not a slouch in bullet and daily formats, they even snuck a daily peak rating of 1217, proving patience can pay.
Opening Repertoire: The Mixologist
Hasham_123 loves variety: from the familiar diurnal hustle of the King’s Pawn Opening (winning just over 50% in rapid games) to bold adventures in the Van ’t Kruijs Opening and the occasionally slippery Philidor Defense boasting a respectable 62.5% win rate. Yet the player occasionally trips over the French Defense, where the win rate languishes near the 20% mark—possibly a calling for less cheese and more crackers in preparation.
Playing Style & Personality
Far from a quick quitter, Hasham_123’s early resignation rate stands at a modest 6%, showing a healthy will to fight ‘til the bitter end—55 moves on average to claim a win, and 60 in defeat, suggesting a player who truly enjoys the long game. The psychological dashboard tells us they are a morning warrior with a best time of day around 6:00 AM, where they boast an astonishing 81% win rate at that hour. Night owls beware!
Current winning streaks stand modestly at 1, but the player’s comeback rate is nearly 61%, a testament to bouncing back when the chips (and pawns) are down. Though 9 might be their longest losing streak, every setback is just a prelude to a new adventure, and the tilt factor of 9 hints that frustration might result in an occasional forehead slap, but never surrender.
