Profile Summary: Andre (kachiguhkachiguh)
Meet Andre, a resilient and ever-evolving chess enthusiast known in the online arenas as kachiguhkachiguh. Starting with modest blitz ratings near 300 in early 2024, Andre has steadily climbed the ranks, hitting a peak blitz rating of 510 by February 2025 and showcasing an impressive bullet peak of 725 in April 2025. Clearly, Andre’s fingers move as fast as their mind!
Andre’s style? A cocktail of creativity and stubborn grit. With a 72% comeback rate, they refuse to surrender to misfortune, often snatching victories from the jaws of defeat. However, an early resignation rate of under 4% proves Andre knows when to quit - a true strategist who values time and mental stamina.
On average, Andre crafts wins in about 46 moves, while losses tend to stretch out, perhaps reflecting the fierce battles waged. Whether playing white or black, Andre keeps a steady balance with roughly 51% win rate playing white and about 49% playing black, proving adaptability across the board.
Opening Repertoire Highlights
- Blitz favorites: King's Pawn Opening (~54% win rate), Vienna Game (~75% win rate), and Queen's Pawn Chigorin Variation (~60% win rate) highlight Andre’s comfort in classic, bold openings.
- Rapid favorites: Undoubtedly, the "Undefined" openings are a mystery — yet a perfect 100% win rate suggests Andre’s spreadsheet might be jealous.
- Bullet battlefield: The “Top Secret” opening lived up to its name with a wild 49% win rate over 260+ games; not secret enough to deter opponents but perhaps just mysterious enough to unsettle them.
Game Personality
Andre’s best time of day to strike down opponents is sharply at 3 PM – a perfect time for a coffee-fueled tactical blitz. Those who meet Andre on Saturdays or Wednesdays should beware: win rates hover just above 50%, evidence of keen midweek and weekend focus.
Not one to shy from psychological warfare, Andre’s tilt factor is 8, indicating moments of fiery passion (or perhaps a cry for mercy) when the chips are down. Yet, with more wins saved by resignation than losses, Andre often reaps the rewards of persistence and pressure.
Memorable Moments
Recently, Andre secured a thrilling victory on June 2, 2025, triumphing with the King’s Pawn Opening in a game that ended on time pressure but was packed with creative maneuvers and bold sacrifices. Even when losing, the battles are fierce and strategic—like the June 2 loss against Frankuu69 where Andre held their composure up to the very end.
Whether facing opponents who have seen their pawns fall or newcomers who underestimate their wily openings, Andre consistently proves to be a worthy adversary eager to learn, adapt, and sometimes throw a cheeky gambit or two.
In the grand game of chess, Andre may not yet be a grandmaster, but the determination, fun, and fight make watching them play a true delight. Beware the kachiguhkachiguh storm on the horizon!
