Opening Moves & Mischiefs

izzishadow has a notable fondness for the classic King's Pawn Opening, boasting a solid 66.67% win rate over 9 Rapid games, but beware their dabbling in the mysterious Top Secret opening—with a shy 16.67% win rate, it’s a bit like playing with a live grenade. Other favorites include the Scotch Game (66.67% wins too) and a balanced approach against Scandinavian variations. Sadly, the Philidor Defense is not their friend—0% wins over 3 intense matches!

Playing Style & Quirks

Patience is a virtue they steadily cultivate—averaging nearly 49 moves per win and a patient 56 moves per loss. While izzishadow tries not to quit early (just a 5.4% early resignation rate), the psychological rollercoaster is real.

A warrior of comebacks, izzishadow turns disaster into opportunity with a 58.8% comeback rate after trailing—a testament to their tenacity. But conceding after losing a piece is still a tricky hurdle (only winning 35% of those fights), and one-sided losses make up about 14% of total defeats.
