Playing Style & Quirks

Karka2389’s games are a rollercoaster ride averaging 22 moves to a win but a whopping 42 moves to a loss. Clearly, when the tide turns, they cling awkwardly but passionately, never giving up easily.

Though victory often dances just out of reach after losing a piece (winning only 28.57% in those cases), the determination is evident.

Favorite Battlefields

The King’s Pawn Opening seems like home turf with mixed results (about 39% win rate), but when diving into specific variations like the King’s Knight Variation, victory has been flawless.
Unfortunately, the Queen’s Pawn Opening and several tricky defenses like the Grob and Alekhine's Maroczy Variation are less friendly terrains, yielding zero wins. Hey, every hero has their kryptonite!
