Meet ITSMELODO, a fearless tactician in the chaotic battlegrounds of Blitz and Bullet chess. Not just your average keyboard warrior, this player thrives where most flee — under the relentless tick of the clock and the blazing pace of rapid-fire games.
Rating Highlights
Bullet Peak: A sizzling 517 in October 2024 – proving lightning-fast reflexes and sharp instincts.
Blitz Peak: An impressive 632 in August 2024, showing mastery in the famously unforgiving 5-minute format.
Rapid Peak: Held steady at 572, illuminating a solid grasp of classical tactics amidst the frenzy.
Playing Style
True to the speed-demands of their preferred time control, ITSMELODO combines calculated aggression with a bit of charming impatience — clocking an early resignation rate of just 4%, but often opting for swift endgames with an average of almost 61 moves to victory. The stirring comeback rate stands tall at 87.73%, confirming they never quit… even when they lose a piece! The psychological tilt factor hovers around 9, translating roughly to: "Needs a good cup of coffee and maybe cheese after a rough streak."
Opening Moves & Strategy
ITSMELODO dances mostly with the Queen's Pawn Opening (a reliable 53% win rate in Bullet!). Bold players beware of their Bishops Opening magic — winning two-thirds of the games played! The infamous Englund Gambit also pops up in their repertoire with respectable success, proving that gambits aren't just for the brave, but for the downright fearless.
Battle Records and Opponents
With a fierce overall Bullet record (76 wins to 73 losses), this player is no stranger to the swings of fortune. They've chalked up wins against players like dommy-93 and che3chgaray, sometimes clinching matches right on time — literally winning on time more than 89 times! Although a losing streak hit 9 games at a time recently, the drive to bounce back is relentless.
Fun Fact
Playing mostly in the "witching hour" of late-night chess (with best game time around 2 PM but a surprisingly strong 57% win rate at midnight), ITSMELODO seems equally comfortable both as a bright afternoon strategist and a nocturnal knight. Maybe chessboards shine brighter under moonlight?
Recent Triumph
In their latest victory — a swift victory in the Caro-Kann Defense: Fantasy Variation — ITSMELODO tactically outmaneuvered the opponent, winning on time but also showcasing a brilliant sequence of moves culminating in a dominant position. Speed meets skill!
