Career Highlights & Style

Opening Repertoire
This player doesn’t shy away from mixing it up. The Queens Pawn Opening appears as a favorite battleground, yielding a modest 30% win rate over 10 games; though the Center Game Accepted and Chigorin Variation of the Queens Pawn Opening bring Kathe2005’s win rate up to 50%. French Defense Normal and the infamous Englund Gambit? Let's just say Kathe2005’s relationship with them is complicated (0 wins, lots of lessons learned).

With a tilt factor of 9, they know how to keep cool — mostly. And when odds are against them, about 21% of the time, Kathe2005 snatches victory away from higher-rated foes, proving the heart is mightier than the rating.
