JohnCarloC: The Enigmatic Chess Adventurer
Meet JohnCarloC, a chess player whose journey on the 64-square battlefield is a fascinating blend of perseverance, unexpected swings, and a dash of mystery (seriously, the openings are "Top Secret"!).
Rating Rollercoaster
Starting with a modest rapid rating of 201 in 2022, JohnCarloC quickly scaled up to an impressive 631 by 2025. Their blitz skills have been a wild ride, fluctuating between highs of 548 and lows near 139, reflecting a player who embraces both speedy tactics and adrenaline rushes.
Bullet chess? Less of a fan, it seems — with a steadfast 100 rating and zero wins, the bullet arena is clearly their Wild West yet to be conquered.
Wins, Losses & Draws: The Stats
Across hundreds of games, JohnCarloC boasts 389 rapid wins, 63 blitz wins, but struggles a bit in bullet with zero wins from five tries. The overall win-loss record reflects a fighter who never backs down, with a nearly even split and a willingness to trade pawns and pride alike.
Fun fact: JohnCarloC’s longest winning streak is an admirable 8 games, though current streaks may be cooling off—but hey, every chess warrior has their hot and cold shades.
Style & Strategy
Known for a 21.4% early resignation rate (because sometimes even grandmasters know when to call it quits), JohnCarloC wastes no time bowing out of lost causes.
With an average of ~49 moves per win, this player enjoys deep endgames and tactical battles, showcasing significant endurance.
A true comeback artist, the comeback rate clocks in at an impressive 56%, and inspiringly, JohnCarloC wins 100% of games after losing a piece — a testament to resilience and resourcefulness.
Psychological Quirks
Despite keeping cool with a low tilt factor of 9, JohnCarloC shows a quirky 25.25% better win rate in rated games compared to casual ones — maybe the pressure brings out their lion’s roar.
Playing as White yields a slightly better success (50.7%) than Black (45.3%), probably because starting first is just a bit more comforting.
Favorite Opponents & Nemesis Tales
JohnCarloC has squared off most often against vinnymelito (64 games), holding a respectable 57.8% win rate.
Intriguingly, against many opponents like fro_kid, JohnCarloC boasts a perfect 100% win record. Against others, well… less so — some are undefeated against JohnCarloC, providing spicy rivalries and backstory potentials worthy of a chess soap opera.
When Does JohnCarloC Play?
The chessboard sees JohnCarloC come alive particularly mid-afternoon around 13:00 (with a striking 75% win rate) and 0:00 and 8:00 hours (each boasting 60%). Weekdays generally favor Wednesday (55.2% wins), while Fridays tend to be tougher (only 34.7% wins), maybe because of TGIF distractions.
In essence, JohnCarloC is not just a player; they are a paradox wrapped in an enigma, delivered with an occasional “Oops!” and a lot of determination on and off the board. Keep an eye on this one — the next brilliant move could come at any time.
