Chess Biography: ifari001

Meet ifari001, a rapid chess warrior navigating the 2025 online battlefield with a peak rating of 580. While this may not be Magnus Carlsen territory just yet, ifari001 shows a fiery passion and a stubborn will, boasting a near-even rapid record of 325 wins against 319 losses, and a sprinkling of 27 draws — truly a player who fights until the very last pawn.

This gamer’s preferred battleground? The Queens Pawn Opening, where ifari001 has secured victory 55.8% of the time in 129 battles. Though the Kings Pawn Opening seems a bit trickier with a 40.7% win rate, they manage a respectable 51% in the Leonardis Variation, which shows a knack for nuanced strategies. Beware the Englund Gambit — here ifari001 turns the tables impressively with a 63.2% success rate, proving their tactical prowess shines brightest in surprise attacks!

Analyzing the playing style reveals a player who doesn’t give up easily. With a stunning comeback rate exceeding 76%, ifari001 is the comeback kid of online rapid chess, often clawing back against the odds after losing a piece—though their win rate after losing a piece is a modest 43.4%, which makes every comeback all the more dramatic.

But life isn’t all glory in the virtual arena. The longest losing streak stands at 7 painful defeats, and a tilt factor of 7 hints at occasional moments when the chessboard feels more like a battlefield of emotions. Still, their average moves per win (~65 moves) and even losses (~63 moves) suggest that when ifari001 plays, games are hard-fought duels rather than quick checkmates or resignations.

Ifari001 plays with white and black pieces nearly evenly, winning slightly more often on white (50.6%) than black (46.3%). Perhaps a bit indecisive about color preferences — or just keeping opponents guessing.

The most dangerous opponents have a tough time catching ifari001 off guard — the win rate is sometimes perfect 100% against many foes, but beware kerei007: so far, ifari001 has never won against this player. Will the rivalry continue? Only more games will tell.

When to challenge ifari001? Oddly enough, the best time of day to catch them firing on all cylinders is around 3:00 AM — likely fueled by strong coffee or sheer stubbornness. With a win rate spiking to 100% at 3 AM and robust (>60%) between 21:00 to 22:00, ifari001 is definitely a nocturnal chess beast.

Want some trivia? The player often finishes games by resignation (211 wins by resignation) rather than flashy checkmates — maybe opponents just throw in the towel early after facing ifari001’s grinding tactics.

Highlights from recent games: a solid victory over DanielSSsJ by resignation after a strategic endgame battle in the Horwitz Defense (Queens Pawn Opening), and a brilliant, patient checkmate against kamal9089877 showcasing killer technique. Losses, of course, come with the territory — like the resignation against kerei007, their kryptonite.

Whether you’re here to learn, laugh, or marvel, remember this: ifari001 might not be the grandmaster yet, but they’re the grandmaster of grit and the king of comebacks. Challenging ifari001? Bring your best game... and possibly a snack for those long 65-move wars ahead.
