Profile Summary: iwasire
Meet iwasire, a chess warrior whose rapid games resemble an intense rollercoaster ride through the cosmos of 64 squares. Peaking at a rapid rating of 411 in mid-2025, they’ve demonstrated that steady improvement is the name of the game — even if it feels like chasing a knight that just won’t stay put.
With a total of nearly 504 rapid games under their belt—winning 248 and losing 236—it's clear that resilience is their middle name. Whether they're sneaking victories with the tricky French Defense (a solid 65% win rate) or occasionally fumbling through the ever-mysterious "Top Secret" opening (37.7% win rate, because secrecy clearly doesn’t guarantee success), they play boldly and fun.
Bullet and blitz? Oh, they’re there too. A peak bullet rating of 534 and blitz max of 497 prove iwasire can handle speed-chess insanity, even if the games swing like a pendulum at times. And yes, their opening repertoire includes everything from the Kings Pawn Opening to the cryptic Englund Gambit—probably because why stick to one when you can keep your opponents guessing?
Despite an average move count over 50 in winning games and a respectable comeback rate above 69%, iwasire’s psychological side tells an interesting story: their “tilt factor” is a mild 10, so don’t be surprised if frustration creeps in after those dramatic losses — but hey, they always bounce back.
Their best chess hours? Early mornings around 8 AM, where the coffee is fresh and the brain is sharpest. They’re more victorious on Mondays and Sundays (win rates above 54%), making weekends the perfect time for "I shall crush thee" declarations.
Fun Facts & Recent Battles
- Known for resigning early about 18% of the time—sometimes a graceful surrender is tactical genius in disguise.

Opponents beware: iwasire’s win rate against many foes pushes past the 90% mark, especially those who underestimate a player with a name that sounds like a secret spell. Whether dismantling pieces or forgiving a quick draw, this player embodies the spirit of chess – strategic, surprising, and always ready to outwit one more time.
Chess might be 99% tactics, but iwasire makes the other 1% look like pure showmanship.
