Profile: hoboin

Meet hoboin, the chess player whose game is as unpredictable as their username suggests! With a love for all time controls—from bullet blazes to thoughtful daily games—hoboin’s chess journey is a rollercoaster of highs, lows, and a healthy dose of tactical surprises.

Playing Style

hoboin adopts a balanced approach with a slightly higher success when playing White (about 49%) than Black (44%). Early resignations happen around 5% of the time, showing some patience in battle—but don’t get fooled! Endgames are hoboin's playground, featuring in nearly two thirds of games. A true chess adventurer: Average moves per win clock in at almost 59 moves, suggesting that games often stretch into the deep, delicious complexities.

Tactical Charm

Known for a solid comeback rate of 68%, hoboin doesn't quit just because a piece was lost or an opponent took the upper hand. Remarkably, hoboin boasts a 100% win rate after losing a piece, turning dire moments into triumphant tales. Cue the dramatic chess movie music!

Favorite Openings

With a penchant for Nordic flair, hoboin enjoys the Scandinavian Defense in blitz, boasting a respectable near 48% win rate across hundreds of games. The Queen's Pawn Opening and various Scandinavian variations also feature prominently, revealing a preference for solid but sharp play. Don’t forget the Englund Gambit, where hoboin’s success rate is over 50%, proving a taste for some spicy chess gambits.

Chess Psychology & Quirks

Watching hoboin play over the week, Tuesday and Wednesday seem lucky with nearly a 50% win rate, while Sunday’s mood might be a little off at just 44%. Hitting the board between 1 AM and 4 AM is where hoboin shines brightest—peaking over 50% win rate. Clearly, hoboin is a night owl fueled by caffeine and inspiration.

Beware the tilt factor of 9, which means a rude blunder or two happens when the nerves kick in, but no big deal—hoboin bounces right back!

The Legend in Stats

More than 3,000 blitz games played, with a near 50/50 split between wins and losses plus a few draws thrown in; rapid games offer a more balanced and slightly positive score. Bullet games are fast and furious, with nearly 1,100 battles fought in 2023 alone!

Opponents beware: hoboin has a few recurring rivals like "kadiyalabal7" and "win000000," facing them dozens of times with mixed success, but overall, hoboin’s resilience and quirky style make every game unpredictable and fun.

Summary: If you ever meet hoboin at the chessboard, expect a fight with a dash of humor, a sprinkle of strategy, and a whole lot of heart. They might lose a piece, they might blunder, but quitting early? Not their style. The game’s never over until hoboin says it is.
