Profile of JeremyB49: The Rapid Riddler
Meet JeremyB49, a battle-hardened rapid chess warrior who’s been quietly amassing wins and occasionally learning the hard way since early 2025. With a peak rapid rating soaring to 746 in May 2025, Jeremy’s name is known as both a formidable foe and a strategic trickster across the virtual chessboard.
Jeremy’s journey through rapid chess has been nothing short of a rollercoaster: from a humble 400 rating in April to flirting with the 700s in just a couple of months. That upward climb is accompanied by an almost Shakespearean drama of wins (215), losses (199), and draws (33), proving that every game is an intense story with twists worthy of a chess novel.
Opening Moves: Where Jeremy Strikes
Renowned for his passion for the King's Pawn Opening, with over a hundred engagements and a respectable 53% win rate, Jeremy also exhibits a particular fondness for the Vienna Game, where he shines with nearly 70% victories. Meanwhile, his versatile use of the Scandinavian Defense Closed reflects a player not afraid to shake things up and keep opponents guessing.
Style and Strategy
- Average moves to win: 51 - patience is a virtue, but Jeremy knows when to press.
- Endgame frequency: 56% - a true gladiator who relishes the battlefield till the end.
- Early resignation rate: A humble 4% - giving up is just not in Jeremy's playbook.
- Comeback rate: Wow! Nearly 66% - when down a piece or two, Jeremy’s resolve turns the tide more often than not.
Notable Streaks & Records
His longest winning spree was an epic 13-game run, reminding everyone that streaks exist to be broken... but only by Jeremy on the hunt for more glory. Losing streaks happen too (a brutal 7 in a row), yet they only fuel his next great comeback. Right now, his recent rollercoaster stands at a tiny 0-win, 3-loss dip. But hey, even legends have off days!
Enemy Watch: Opponents Beware
Jeremy has tangled frequently with akashelbyy (16 battles!) where sparks always fly, though he’s holding a tough 12.5% win rate there. He’s earned perfect 100% win records against a slew of challengers, including ammysi, franjokosic, and captainculte, proving he often turns opponents into mere pawns on his path. Not everything’s a cakewalk, though: he’s been checkmated by the likes of undisputed_king and hugo-vde — clearly motivating future rematches.
Prime Playing Time
Clocking victories most reliably on Sunday — boasting a perfect 100% win rate — Jeremy also thrives around midnight (00:00), where his tilt factor is minimal and his brilliance maximal. Afternoon hours reveal mixed fortunes, but when the stars align (especially at 14:00 and 17:00), watch out for some of his fiercest plays.
Recent Triumph
Jeremy’s most recent victory against ammysi was a true display of tactical insight and relentless pressure, culminating in a win by resignation after 58 moves. The shaky opening was swiftly seized through calculating queen maneuvers and precise rook activations, leaving the opponent with no choice but to bow out gracefully.
With a sharp tactical mind and a penchant for strategic gambits, JeremyB49 remains a rising star in the rapid chess realm. Whether plotting king hunts or navigating tricky endgames, this player embodies the perfect blend of grit, brains, and a pinch of chessboard mischief.
