Playing Style

itxabh prefers to think twice: on average, games they win last about 50 moves, while losses stretch to nearly 58 moves, suggesting a dogged determination even in tough spots. Their early resignation rate is a modest 2.67%, meaning they rarely give up without a fight. Interestingly, they shine with the white pieces just a tad more than black, boasting a 50.57% win rate as White versus 48.57% as Black.

Known for their comeback skills, itxabh has a remarkable 70.08% comeback rate, frequently turning the tables when under pressure. However, losing a piece can slightly dent their chances, as their win rate after losing material is around 45.22%. Still, the one-sided loss rate is low at 4.14%, proving a resilient spirit.

Opening Repertoire

Opening the battlefield like a mystery novel, itxabh enjoys the intricacies of classic lines:

• Blitz Favorites: King's Pawn Opening (52.4% win rate), Scotch Game (65.4% win rate), and Scandinavian Defense variations.
• Bullet Choices: Scandinavian Defense dominates, with a 52.17% win rate — clearly a go-to surprise weapon in fast games.
• Rapid Preferences: King's Pawn Opening and Philidor Defense top their list, with a notable 67.6% win rate in Philidor Defense.

Performance & Streaks

With a longest winning streak of 20 games (because who doesn’t love a hot streak?) and a current promising two-game streak, itxabh is on a roll. The toughest obstacle has been a 16-game losing streak — because every hero needs a villain.

They seem to shine during the early hours, with their best playing time around 1:00 AM, proving late-night chess marathons might just be their secret weapon.

Recent Battles

Some recent highlights in itxabh's competitive chronicles include a victorious timed battle in the Scandinavian Defense (won on time after 48 intense moves), and a graceful resignation victory using the French Defense Queen's Knight Variation. On the flip side, just as in every epic tale, there are losses — including a checkmate in the Scandinavian Defense where the opponent's bishop swooped in like a sneaky ninja.

Opponent Relations

Itxabh's opponents know it's no walk in the park — the player has many near-perfect records against frequent challengers like “antro1” and “abdullah7235”, boasting a sparkling 100% win rate against them. Meanwhile, some rivals have gotten the better of itxabh, making every match a thrilling rollercoaster ride.

Fun Facts

• Holds a rather disciplined timeout loss record, meaning sometimes the clock is the real opponent.
• Has a quirky habit of winning more games after fighting back from losing a piece, so never count out a lost cause when itxabh is on the board.
• Has a solid love-hate relationship with the Scandinavian Defense, winning about half the time and losing just a bit less — a true chess drama.

In the grand arena of chess, itxabh is like a tactician armed with caffeine — clutching wins in the most critical moments, sometimes running against the clock, but always ready to learn and improve.

Whether you're facing them on Blitz or Bullet, prepare for a battle that’s as entertaining as it is challenging. Cheers to more games, more surprises, and countless forks!
