Profile: JOtreva

Meet JOtreva, a chess warrior whose journey is as colorful and unpredictable as a game of rapid chess itself. Currently sporting a peak rapid rating of 669 and a blitz zenith at 834, JOtreva is no stranger to the rollercoaster ride of wins, losses, and the occasional checkmate thunderbolt.

Chess Odyssey

Starting their recorded adventure in August 2024, JOtreva began with a dazzling rapid rating high of 669 before enduring a few humbling tumbles down into the 200s. But like a true chess phoenix, they bounced back, maintaining a steady average rapid rating around the 370-400 range in 2025. Blitz performances paint a tale of wildfire intensity — reaching an impressive 834 at first outing, then cooling off to steady, if modest, ratings in the 450-550 bracket.

Style & Strategy

Strategically, JOtreva is a determined tactician with a penchant for the Queen's Pawn Opening Horwitz Defense, boasting an 83% win rate. Other favored battlegrounds include the Indian Game and Van 't Kruijs Opening, both yielding commendable success above 60%. Meanwhile, the Center Game appears to be their kryptonite, with no wins in six attempts—proof even grandmasters have their Achilles' heels.

With a longest winning streak of 7 games and a knack for comebacks (a clutch 67.5% comeback rate!), JOtreva is never out of the fight. The psychological stamina shows too: a tilt factor under 10% means they're cool-headed under pressure, even when the loss column starts to rise.

Memorable Battles & Quirks

JOtreva’s games often end on a note of heroic resignation or checkmate, favoring to bow out with dignity - resignation accounts for nearly half their wins. But when putting the hammer down, checkmates are delivered with surgical precision (33 wins by checkmate!), showing their ruthless side.

Notably, their best chess hours include the magic hour of 11:00 AM—the prime time to bring the brain fog to heel and launch brilliant moves that even Magnus might double-take at. Beware opponents playing on Wednesdays and Sundays, when JOtreva's win rates dip alarmingly low; even the greatest need their rest.

Fun Facts & Opponents

• Favorite target opponents include knight_man43 and ElvisPresley442, against whom JOtreva boasts a 100% win rate! Opponents named t_simas and y07raj, however, bring out the tough fights (0% win rate so far).
• Average moves before victory hover around 42, suggesting patience but not procrastination—JOtreva knows how to finish.
• Early resignation rate is less than 10%, so don’t expect them to quit before the time control runs out—unless it’s already checkmate, of course!

Latest Highlights

Most recently, a swift victory using the Old Benoni Defense demonstrated JOtreva’s adaptability and tactical flair, winning by an early bishop exchange in a rapid game against knight_man43.

In Summary

To sum up: JOtreva is a spirited competitor, a mix of strategic sharpness with flashes of tricky gambits. Sometimes prone to losing streaks (longest at 6), but just as quick to chase down a streak of wins. With a charming blend of resilience and creativity, JOtreva keeps the chessboard lively, unpredictable, and above all, fun.
