Player Profile: hildae

Meet hildae, a resilient and adventurous chess enthusiast whose journey through the 64 squares is a saga of ups, downs, and plenty of strategy (and occasional blunders!). Rated across various time controls, hildae’s peak blitz rating soared to an impressive 937 in mid-2023, proving their lightning-fast tactics can pack quite a punch. Not to be outdone, their rapid play peaked at a mighty 1169 early in 2023, showing serious skill when the clock has a bit more mercy.

Although hildae has experienced more losses than wins in blitz battles (878 wins vs. 906 losses with a handful of draws), their fighting spirit shines through with a record littered with thrilling comebacks and a tactical awareness that turns losing pieces into mere speed bumps rather than dead ends. With a comeback rate of nearly 78%, it's clear that underestimating hildae could be your first and last mistake on the board.

Known for savoring long, drawn-out endgames (52.46% endgame frequency) and averaging about 61 moves per win, hildae seems to enjoy the mental marathon as much as the sprint. In fact, their average moves per loss is a brisk 50, hinting at exciting games where opponents are kept on their toes.

Playing style wise, hildae loves the classics but has a special fondness for the Reti Opening, boasting a striking 80% win rate there, and is equally deadly with the Giuoco Piano Game. However, the Ruy Lopez Berlin Defense seems to be their kryptonite, with a perfect zero-win record — nobody’s perfect, right?

When it comes to daily chess, hildae’s rating touches a respectable 819, and their bullet rating peaks at 925 — a speed demon with a penchant for nail-biting finishes. Their psychological resilience has a tilt factor of 9, meaning even when the pressure mounts, hildae keeps a level head most of the time (except, perhaps, around 2 AM, which is ironically their noted best time to play).

One quirky trivia: hildae's best days to play hover slightly above 50% win rate on Mondays, so maybe Mondays are worth looking forward to — for both hildae and their opponents!
