He’s a fan of the mysterious and the underrated, often diving into the Unknown Opening with a close-to-50% success rate. When feeling adventurous, johnsonjohny spices things up with the Top Secret and Scandinavian Defense lines, occasionally dazzling foes with the subtle nuances of the Mieses Kotrc Gubinsky Melts Defense — a mouthful, but apparently a recipe for victory with a win rate north of 53% in that line.

As a night owl or a late afternoon strategist, his best time to strike is around 4 PM, when his tactical awareness hits peak performance. Not surprisingly, his tactical play enables him to win by checkmate an impressive 723 times; he also knows when to graciously accept resignations from opponents who see the writing on the board. Timeout victories? Let’s just say sometimes the clock is a worthy opponent.
When it comes to rivalries, johnsonjohny has faced a colorful cast of characters like hunny696969 and metalcato but boasts perfect records against many others — apparently, some opponents become instant fan club members after facing him!
