Profile Summary: IkbenOlti
Meet IkbenOlti, a rapid chess enthusiast whose rating has surged impressively in 2025, reaching a peak of 474 in Rapid and a blitz blast up to 971. This player’s chess journey can be best described as a rollercoaster ride with epic comebacks (a stunning 68.27% comeback rate!) and a battle-tested spirit that keeps pushing forward, even after losing a piece.
With a modest early resignation rate of just 6.45%, IkbenOlti clearly prefers to fight to the end — no giving up early here! Their games tend to be marathon affairs, averaging around 54 moves for wins and 56 moves for losses, proving they enjoy the long chess tussle as much as the quick snipe.
Opening aficionados, beware: IkbenOlti wields the Englund Gambit like a secret weapon, boasting an astonishing 92.31% win rate in that line, probably leaving opponents wondering if they've stumbled into a wizard’s spellbook. Other openings like the Queen's Pawn Chigorin Variation and Queen's Pawn Horwitz Defense also feature as fan favorites, with win rates of 80% and 75% respectively. But be careful if you face the Leonardis Variation of King's Pawn – it’s a bit of a kryptonite with only a 20% win rate there!
