Career Highlights & Style

This player is no stranger to openings—favoring the King’s Pawn Opening, the intriguingly aggressive Scandinavian Defense, and the sharp lines of the Bishop’s Opening, where hendrokartikoo boasts an impressive win rate above 73%.

hendrokartikoo’s games tend to be epic sagas: an average of almost 47 moves in victories and a slightly longer 53 moves in losses. Clearly, surrender doesn't come easy! With a comeback rate exceeding 64%, giving up is not in their vocabulary, even if sometimes the losses stack up (there was a legendary 19-game losing streak that could make even the sturdiest grandmaster glance sideways).

The Psychological Warfare

Psychologically, hendrokartikoo fights the infamous "tilt" with a 19% tilt factor—meaning a few bad moves might provoke some colorful inner dialogue. Interestingly, the magic hour to play is around 2 AM, when their win rate skyrockets—perhaps fueled by midnight snacks and a battle against sleepy bishops.

Playing Clock & Mood

Weekends bring out the best, with a Saturday win rate north of 54%, and afternoon battles from 8 AM to 10 AM or 8 PM to 9 PM are particularly fruitful times to witness their tactical wizardry.

Recent Adventures on the Board

hendrokartikoo’s recent games are a saga of grit and determination: a victorious extravaganza against lvquiva19 via an abandoned game after a sharp Scandinavian Defense duel, highlighting quick thinking under time pressure; a dramatic win by resignation from Ilai2497711gg; and a thrilling game against Rpawl showcasing tactical finesse in the Vienna Game. Despite this, the warrior has sometimes fallen to opponents like Denarisdrogo and Mammana13, proving even the best stumble but always rise again.

Fun Fact

hendrokartikoo resigns early in about 7.6% of games—proof that even hopeful knights know when to retreat and regroup. And although their Black win rate is slightly lower than White’s, they prove time and again that with sheer persistence, the color of the pieces doesn't dictate the story.

If resilience had a face, it would be hendrokartikoo—evolving, learning, and forever chasing that elusive checkmate.
