Profile Summary: ivanbayden

Meet ivanbayden, a chess enthusiast whose journey on the 64 squares is sprinkled with thrilling highs, heart-stopping lows, and a dash of mischievous flair. With an ever-evolving blitz rating peaking at 416 and rapid topping out at 522, ivanbayden is no stranger to the rollercoaster of competitive chess. Daily rating? A solid 741 — because apparently, slow and steady can win some races (or at least hang around long enough to make you wonder).

Playing Style & Strengths

Known for embracing the Scandinavian Defense with nearly 100 games played and holding an almost even win rate, ivanbayden clearly enjoys shaking things up early on. The King’s Pawn Opening is another favorite, boasting a respectable 58% win rate in blitz, proving there’s power in simplicity.

Whether it’s a fierce blitz battle or a thoughtful rapid duel, ivanbayden likes to keep opponents on their toes. With an average game length hovering around 50 moves, games are rarely over before you’ve had time to get your popcorn ready. Tactical awareness is a specialty here—with a comeback rate over 76%—showing a stubborn refusal to go quietly, even when the odds look grim.

Record & Rhythm

Over hundreds of blitz, rapid, and daily games, ivanbayden’s record reads like a gritty saga: nearly balanced wins and losses with a sprinkle of draws to keep life interesting. With a tilt factor of 12%, sometimes frustration creeps in, but it never lasts long enough to stop the next all-out assault on the board.

Interestingly, ivanbayden performs best in the early mornings around 6 AM, as if powered by coffee and sheer chess obsession—proving that sunrise is prime checkmate time.

Memorable Moments

A recent victory featured a textbook checkmate against “Payhona” after a dynamic battle that saw knights leaping, pawns advancing, and the infamous king trapped like a deer in headlights. The game lasted 31 moves and ended with a flourish worthy of the name ivanbayden. Although losses do come—such as an epic checkmate against “u77271”—each defeat adds fuel to the fire, promising a swift and stylish comeback.

Opponent Dynamics

Facing “whyareyou007” 27 times with a modest 14.8% win rate might be a personal nemesis situation, but others like “payhona” and “thegloriouseugene” saw 100% defeat at ivanbayden’s hands. Clearly, some rivals are friendly, others are fierce, but all contribute to an ever-entertaining chess journey.

The Bottom Line

ivanbayden isn’t just a player, but a chess adventurer who knows the value of both patience and boldness. Expect smart tactical shots, the occasional risky gambit, and a passionate fight till the very last move — with just enough flair to make watching his games an unpredictable delight.

Next time you see ivanbayden online, be ready: this chess warrior might just turn your carefully laid plans upside down while sporting a grin (or at least a cheeky resignation).
