Profile of johnywoo3: The Underdog Wizard of the Board

Meet johnywoo3, a spirited chess adventurer currently paving their path in the year 2025. With peek blitz ratings reaching a modest but respectable 324, and a rapid peak soaring to 572, johnywoo3 exemplifies the never-say-die attitude of an enthusiastic player who knows that every piece counts — even if sometimes that piece is lost!

Chess Journey & Stats

johnywoo3 has a rather interesting win/loss record, especially in blitz where they've dived headfirst into 113 games in May alone, balancing 55 wins against 54 losses. Talk about keeping it suspenseful! Rapid games show a similar story of perseverance, with hundreds of battles fought (~671 games total), winning nearly half.

Favorite Openings — And Those Not So Favorite

Armed with a tactical arsenal, johnywoo3 favors solid defenses mixed with dynamic counterattacks. Their best blitz success rates come from the Ponziani Opening where they've won almost 78% of games. Stunningly, the Scandinavian Defense boasts a perfect 100% blitz win rate over 4 games — a small sample but impressive nevertheless!

However, not every defense is sunshine and checkmates. The Caro Kann Defense has been a bit of a rollercoaster with only a 31.58% win rate in blitz. Like any true chess player, johnywoo3 embraces these struggles as learning opportunities (and probably a few funny memes).

Playing Style & Peculiarities

  • Wins by resignation: 213 (because sometimes your opponent just can't handle the pressure)
  • Longest winning streak: 9 (a glorious run worthy of a mini champion)
  • Comeback rate: an impressive 79.55%, proving johnywoo3 believes in the power of "it's not over until the king falls."
  • Average moves per win: about 56 moves, showing a patient and strategic approach — or just a tendency to drag out the drama!
  • Early resignations: kept low at 5.64%, so johnywoo3 doesn’t throw in the towel without a fight.

Best Playing Hours

If you want to catch johnywoo3 at their peak, set your clocks around 9 AM — their psychologically favored time to play. Surprisingly, they shine brightest in the chilly morning hours, and have a peculiar 100% win rate at 9 AM, and generally perform well mid-afternoon and evening too!

Recent Memorable Battles

The latest triumph came in a blitz game against lolsuperman123, where johnywoo3 skillfully leveraged the Ponziani Opening Jaenisch Counterattack to claim victory after just 12 moves with a resignation from the opponent. The quick pace and decisive end mirror johnywoo3’s fighting spirit!

Of course, not every session is a win. Battles with players like qicvee and splashingwine have ended in tough losses, reminding us all that even the best have their off days or blunders worthy of a good laugh.

Opponent Chronicles

johnywoo3 frequently squares off with a diverse cast of challengers but holds a near flawless winning record against some like lolsuperman123 (100% wins) while struggling against others, revealing a patchwork of rivalries as varied as their opening choices.

In Summary

If chess had a "Most Persistent Player" award, johnywoo3 would be a front-runner. Their statistics dance on the fine line between glorious victories and educational defeats. Whether it's blitz, rapid, or bullet, johnywoo3 is a tactical gladiator who proves daily that the game is just as much about experience and heart as it is about rating points.

Keep an eye on johnywoo3 — this player might not be a grandmaster (yet), but they've got the grit to claim many more checkmates and laughs in the great game of kings!
