Profile Summary: ibontxu1997

Meet ibontxu1997, a chess warrior whose reign on the board is as dynamic as a knight’s unpredictable L-shaped dance. Starting from humble beginnings with a Blitz rating of just 100 in late 2022, ibontxu1997 swiftly climbed the ranks, peaking impressively at 695 in Blitz and a solid 1222 in Rapid by October 2022 — proving that patience and strategy beat the clock every time.

Known for embracing the Scandinavian Defense Mieses Kotrc Variation and King’s Gambit Accepted like a true adventurer, this player boasts a nearly 70% win rate in some gambit lines — clearly someone who relishes both risk and reward. With over 750 wins in Rapid alone, and a flash in the pan bullet rating pushing over 500, ibontxu1997 combines tactical sharpness with relentless determination.

But don’t be fooled by the statistics alone. This is a player who knows the bittersweet dance of victory and defeat — with a nearly even blitz win-loss record (116 wins to 115 losses) and a tilt factor of just 7, showing both resilience and a calm mind under pressure. Their longest winning streak hit an impressive 12 games, while endgames are a specialty, often stretching past 57 moves per win. Just a regular guy or gal who likes long stories as much as long games.

If you ever challenge ibontxu1997, beware their psychological prowess: they strike best in the early morning hours around 5 AM (their “best time of day to play”), catching opponents sleepy and off-guard. Even after dropping a piece, their comeback rate near 77% showcases the tenacity to claw back into the fight and keep you guessing.

Recent games tell tales of clean victories by checkmate, daring gambits, and the occasional loss on time — because who hasn’t stared down the clock and wished for a time machine? Against familiar foes like orangekiosk, ibontxu1997 is undefeated, but watch out when less frequent opponents get that one elusive win; every battle shapes the legend.

Whether dabbling in Bullet’s lightning rounds or settling in for a marathon of Rapid, ibontxu1997 is a modern chess enthusiast who blends strategic depth, spirited aggression, and a playful hint of madness. After all, chess without a little fun is just a bunch of pawns waiting to be captured.

In summary: ibontxu1997 is the player who shows up early, plays boldly, wins with style, and never forgets to smile at the madness of the game. Ready for a challenge? Just remember: the kings and queens are watching... and so is ibontxu1997.
