Player Profile: jakosh12

Meet jakosh12, a rapid chess enthusiast whose journey through the 64 squares is as much a rollercoaster as it is a game of pure strategy. Starting 2025 with a humble rating of 565, jakosh12 quickly climbed to a personal peak rating of 1039, proving that sometimes, persistence trumps pure talent (or at least a few lucky breaks).

Jakosh12’s playing style is a curious blend of endurance and tactical fireworks. With an endgame frequency of nearly 70%, this player clearly savors the long fights—often pushing the battle well past the opening stage where most players get restless. The average winning game lasts over 68 moves, giving opponents a solid chance to brace themselves for a marathon rather than a sprint.

If you thought jakosh12 was all about chill and grind, think again! Their longest winning streak stands tall at an impressive 11 victories in a row — a mini-TalentFest of determination and possibly some “how on earth did that work?” moments. But beware, the same player has also been caught in a 5-game losing streak, reminding us all that the chess gods love to keep things balanced.

Openings? Ah, those mysterious beginnings of every chess saga. Jakosh12 has played a whopping 41 rapid games with “Unknown Opening” (secret weapon or just creative chaos?), boasting a respectable 58.54% win rate there. The “Top Secret” opening? Only once attempted, and well... let’s just say it didn’t go quite as planned.

Psychologically, jakosh12 is a fighter. With a tilted factor of just 5, this player keeps calm under fire — except maybe on Monday mornings, where win rates hit a perfect 100% (coincidence? We think not). The best time to catch jakosh12 crushing it on the board is at the crack of dawn, around 3 AM, a time when lesser mortals are busy dreaming instead of strategizing.

A lover of the dramatic, jakosh12 has a knack for comebacks, boasting a comeback rate over 83% and even manages to win 56% of games after losing a piece. Such resilience almost makes you want to root for them — unless you're the opponent, in which case, better watch out.
