Profile Summary: Iqhbalasif

Meet Iqhbalasif, a rapid chess enthusiast whose rating journey feels like a rollercoaster ride—with a thrilling peak rating of 512 in March 2025 followed by some humbling dips. But hey, who needs a steady climb when you can experience all the emotional highs and lows at once?

With a total of 299 rapid games played, the record reads 123 wins, 134 losses, and 42 draws—proof that chess for Iqhbalasif is less about perfection and more about the thrill of the battle. Not afraid to take risks, this player's longest winning streak hit a solid 8 games, matched with a respectable resilience that bounces back quickly after setbacks.

Opening fans will find Iqhbalasif's playstyle an adventurous mix: showing particular comfort with the Queen’s Pawn Opening Horwitz Defense boasting a win rate over 53%, and tactical mastery in the French Defense Knight Variation and Alekhines Defense with equally strong performances. Conversely, the Van Geet Opening Reversed Nimzowitsch Variation seems to be the Achilles heel, with zero wins across six attempts—a classic "not my cup of tea" situation.

Iqhbalasif tends to prefer playing with the Black pieces, boasting a slightly higher win rate (42.38%) compared to White (39.86%). The average number of moves per win is about 49, while losses tend to drag on a bit longer, averaging 64 moves, suggesting a fighter who battles tenaciously even in defeat.

When it comes to time of day, midnight is apparently Iqhbalasif’s magic hour, producing the best win rates (100% at 0:00!). If you ever spot someone opening with the curious and rare g4 or e3 moves, it might just be Iqhbalasif shaking things up on the board.

Psychologically, Iqhbalasif has a tilt factor of 5, which means while not immune to frustration, they keep their cool better than most casual players do after a blunder or loss. And with a comeback rate north of 58%, this player can claw battles back from the jaws of defeat—sometimes like a chess phoenix rising from its own captured pieces.
