Player Profile: idad21

Meet idad21, a resilient chess enthusiast whose journey through the 64 squares is anything but boring. This player comfortably navigates the turbulent waters of Rapid and Blitz play, displaying a fighting spirit that rarely surrenders early—only about 5% early resignations, proving that giving up is not in their chess DNA.

Rating Rollercoaster & Playing Style

Over the recent months, idad21 has seen their Rapid rating swing dramatically—from a dizzying peak of 568 down to the low 200s, and back up again to around the mid-300s in late 2025. Blitz play tells a similar tale, with peaks at 467 and some humbling dips. Like a rollercoaster enthusiast at a theme park, idad21 embraces the highs and lows with gusto.

Their style is a curious blend of patience and persistence: games won usually come after about 37 moves, but losses tend to linger on for nearly 61 moves—a true testament to their endurance and hope against the odds. Black pieces seem to suit them better with a win rate close to 48%, possibly because they enjoy sneaky counterattacks.

Opening Repertoire Highlights

In Rapid games, idad21 oscillates between classical and quirky openings. They’re undefeated with the Van t Kruijs Opening and the Queen’s Pawn Mikenas Defense, winning 100% in both. The Bishop's Opening and King’s Pawn Leonardis Variation bring a mixed bag; some victories, some lessons learned.

Blitz games show affection for the King’s Pawn Opening, where they win half their battles, and a fondness for the Nimzowitsch Defense, though it’s a tough nut to crack with a win below 50%. When in doubt, they’ve dabbled in the Scandinavian, Englund Gambit, and even classic Sicilian lines—true evidence of a versatile, experiment-loving mind.

Memorable Moments & Streaks

With a longest winning streak of 7 games and a more humbling 5-game losing streak, idad21 rides the emotional tides like a pro. Their comeback rate is a respectable 62%, meaning when down a piece, there’s still hope they’ll turn the tables — or at least make the opponent sweat.

Psychology and Timing

Our player isn’t just strong on the board but knows their prime hours: early afternoons around 1 PM bring their best results, boasting a 100% win rate at that hour—probably fueled by a good lunch. The late evening 10 PM hour is also golden with an 85% success rate, perfect for night owls who fancy a tactical battle before bed.

Recent Battles: Victories and Defeats

Among the latest triumphs, one notable win was against yonatan13256 in a Bishop's Opening where careful defense and timely attacks forced the opponent into abandoning the game. Another clever victory came on time against kingknightbishopman in the rare Van t Kruijs Opening, showcasing idad21's ability to pressure opponents into clock trouble.

Losses have come hard too: a swift checkmate by Olegg969 and tough battles against players like Cuspist and RealGrecci remind us that chess is a game of constant learning—especially when your opponent sees the board like a crystal ball.

Summary

To sum it up, idad21 is the kind of player who loves the game for its thrilling unpredictability. They balance fighting spirit with moments of strategic brilliance, and even when fate delivers checkmate, they’re already plotting their next breakthrough. If you challenge idad21, prepare for a rollercoaster ride through wins, losses, counterattacks, and dazzling openings—because with this player, boredom is never on the agenda.
