Profile Summary: jeftavs

Meet jeftavs, a formidable and relentless chess enthusiast whose journey from humble beginnings to peaking over 2000 in Blitz rating is nothing short of inspiring. Starting in 2019 with ratings hovering around the low 1300s in Blitz, jeftavs has steadily climbed the ranks, showing resilience, dedication, and a bit of stubborn brilliance along the way.

With a current Blitz peak rating of 2089 (June 2024), and bullet ratings cresting at 2005, jeftavs isn’t just a player who plays fast; they play smart. Known for an impressive 79% comeback rate, this player isn’t easily shaken by losing material mid-game, embodying the true spirit of the phrase, "Never give up, unless it’s a lost queen."

What makes jeftavs truly special is not just the numbers but the style: a patient strategist who averages nearly 68 moves per win, showing prowess deep into the endgame—just shy of an epic marathon. The sharp mind behind the username prefers long battles over flashy quick finishes, embracing a rich endgame frequency of almost 67%.

Openings favorites? They dance comfortably through the intricate folds of the Ruy Lopez and Scandinavian defenses, while confidently exploring the Indian Game and Four Knights Scotch Variation, proving their love for classical yet dynamic chess. And yes, sometimes jeftavs mixes it up with the King’s Gambit Accepted—because every good player needs a bit of spice.

Their psychological game is rock solid with a tilt factor of 9, showing incredible emotional resilience—not even a nine-game losing streak could dim the fighter’s spirit. They shine best at night, with a peak win rate at 9 PM, clearly nocturnal, plotting chess dominations like a grandmaster pirate.

The epic saga continues: win streaks up to 13 games and a current winning streak of 6 show that jeftavs is in “go mode.” Whether in Bullet, Blitz, Rapid, or Daily, jeftavs conquers with about a 53% win rate overall, always ready for the next challenge and eager to outsmart opponents.

Just recently, jeftavs showcased strategic mastery with a win against NabarReptilian by resignation, in a Queen’s Gambit Declined setup—an encounter sealing the fate of their opponent faster than a sudden chess joke at a tournament.

In the world of 64 squares, jeftavs is a steadfast warrior with a name that commands respect, a style that exudes patience and precision, and a streak of humor lurking behind the serious tactics. Ready to turn pawns into queens, jeftavs continues to stress: "Chess is not just a game; it’s how I procrastinate brilliantly."
