Profile: hennytheartist

Meet hennytheartist, a passionate chess player who's been painting masterpieces on the 64 squares—sometimes with a brush of brilliance, other times with a splash of chaos. Specializing in Rapid games, hennytheartist has danced between a humble 112 and a peak of 363 rating points in May 2025, showing a rollercoaster of courage and flair. Blitz and Bullet formats are also in the portfolio, though with somewhat mixed results, proving that even artists sometimes prefer a slower canvas.

Playing Style & Personality

Known for a love of deep endgames (58% endgame frequency) and patience that stretches to an average of 50 moves per victory, hennytheartist isn't one to rush a masterpiece. With a comeback rate of 61%, resilience is the name of the game—even if the road to victory looks a bit messy at times. Opponents beware: early resignations by hennytheartist are virtually nonexistent, meaning they fight until the final brushstroke.

Timing is everything, and hennytheartist shines brightest around 6:00 AM, achieving a stunning 100% win rate during that hour. Yet, post-game moods fluctuate quickly—our player sports a moderate tilt factor of 4, reminding us that chess is as much an emotional art as a strategic one. Late night attempts? Not always productive, with win rates dipping around midnight and into the wee hours.
