Profile: Katy2210
Katy2210 is a spirited and resilient chess player known for a rollercoaster ride through the ranks—from a dizzying peak Rapid rating of 999 in December 2022, which coincidentally matches the number of puzzles they haven't solved yet, to a steady climb and respectable solid play around the 460-490 range in recent years.
Style & Play
