Profile: ispokonvekov
Meet ispokonvekov, a chess adventurer whose journey is as dynamic as their rating graph. With a peak blitz rating hovering just shy of 1000 (978 in April 2023) and a rapid rating climb that once touched 1229, ispokonvekov strikes the chessboard with a quirky mix of tactical grit and occasional endgame wizardry.
Playing Style & Stats
Known for enduring epic battles averaging 65 moves when winning (and a slightly shorter 49 moves when losing), ispokonvekov certainly enjoys lengthy skirmishes. Their endgame frequency is impressive at almost 58%, proving they're no stranger to the emotional rollercoaster of late middlegame-to-endgame transitions.
Early resignations are modest (8.1%), so don't expect them to quit on you too easily. In fact, their psychological resilience shines with a comeback rate above 80%, which means losing a piece is merely a plot twist, not a finale. However, watch out for tilt—a factor of 8 suggests some fiery moments after tough losses.
Favorite Openings & Performance
When it comes to openings, ispokonvekov has a special fondness for the Scotch Game, especially in blitz where they boast nearly 60% wins from 52 games. The French Defense also features prominently, with several variations tested out, including a dazzling 71% win rate in the French Defense Exchange Variation blitz battles—a variation many just fear!
Bullet games tell a tale of caution and adaptation, with scattered openings but a perfect 100% win rate with King's Pawn and Nimzowitsch Defense in short bursts. Rapid games reveal a patient strategist, enjoying success with the King’s Pawn Opening King's Knight Variation boasting a 75% win rate.
Notable Rivalries & Opponents
ispokonvekov’s most played opponents such as lebzin10, mch_akbar1, and rafaelps3 show a fierce competitive spirit—winning approximately 57% of games against the former and a respectable 75% against the latter. Yet, even masters must bow sometimes: the recent loss to brauliozapien was a tough pill to swallow, but they’ve bounced back faster than you can say "checkmate".
