Game Stats

With nearly 400 Rapid games under their belt, kavsien has a mixed bag of results: 199 wins, 177 losses, and 27 draws, embracing the spirit of fighting till the last knight falls (or the queen gets checkmated). Their bullet record contains a single glorious victory — a perfect 1/1!

Opening Moves That Make You Go “Hmm…”

• King’s Pawn Opening is their bread-and-butter with 118 games and a balanced ~51% win rate — enough to keep opponents guessing and on their toes.
• They flex their strategic muscles in less popular lines like the Nimzowitsch Defense boasting the highest win rate of nearly 78%. Take that, conventional openings!
• Beware the rarely played but surprisingly effective Undefined openings — kavsien emerges victorious a whopping 75% of the time here, because sometimes chaos is a strategy.

Playing Style & Personality

Known for a penchant to end games earlier than some of their rivals (early resignation rate ~8.5%), kavsien certainly knows when to let go — useful when the queen is mysteriously missing, or when snacks call! They love the endgames, with more than 65% of their games reaching those tense late stages. Patience is a virtue, after all.

Despite occasional losing streaks (max 7 games) and a tilt factor of 7, kavsien bounces back with a spectacular comeback rate of 76.5%. Losing a piece? No worries, they still manage to win 45% of such battles — if that isn’t resilience, what is?

Clock and Psychology

Optimal performance window? 6 AM sharp — the time when knights spring to life, and pawns march with caffeinated precision. Checkmate before breakfast? That’s how kavsien rolls.

In the most recent victory, kavsien proudly forced resignation with a clever line starting with 1. e3 and wielding subtle pressure through the Van 't Kruijs Opening. Meanwhile, their latest defeats often came at the hands of relentless opponents like mason12918, proving that even grandmasters must occasionally bow to fate (or better moves).

Opponent Radar

Friends and foes alike know kavsien as a formidable adversary. With a 100% win rate against several opponents (varunvnv, duke-prodigy, rizky_ihsan to name a few), they have their favorite prey. However, some like mason12918 or akarkumis have managed to keep kavsien on edge — reminding everyone that chess never sleeps, and neither does competition.

Fun Fact

Although the world expects chess players to be stoic and serious, kavsien occasionally embraces chaos with unconventional openings and a smile, proving that chess can be as quirky and unpredictable as the player behind the screen.
