Profile Summary: kengreig85

Meet kengreig85, a rapacious rapid chess enthusiast known for a rollercoaster-esque climb through the ranks. Starting 2023 with a sparkling rapid rating of 597, kengreig85 took a puzzling nosedive to a 100 minimum rating before bouncing back with an average performance that screamed "wrestle me, pawns!" Fast forward to 2024, and this player has turbocharged their rapid rating to a mighty 572, with a peak of 607 – definitely not your average weekend warrior!

With nearly 3,500 rapid games under the belt and a win count nudging 1,700, kengreig85 battles with a win rate hovering around 48.7%, revealing a fearless "Top Secret" opening repertoire that's kept opponents guessing and checkmated. Fun fact: their longest winning streak clocks in at a fierce 10 games, proving that when this player hits their stride, it's a sight to behold.

True to their name, kengreig85 has a certain strategic flair – they average about 39 moves per victory, savoring each game like a well-brewed cup of chess tea, but can also quickly learn from early setbacks, boasting a 39.5% comeback rate. However, a 28.5% early resignation rate hints they know when to fold ’em… because sometimes a swift surrender is just good sportsmanship, right?

When it comes to colors, kengreig85 feels most at home playing White, with a sneakily positive win rate just above 50%. Playing Black? A bit more challenging, but still holding strong at 46%. And if you thought time management was their chess nemesis, think again! Their best moves often emerge in the mysterious wee hours between 6 AM and 11 AM, with an astounding 60% win rate at 18:00 and a knack for ruling the 21:00 hour with nearly 58% victories. Sleep is overrated anyway.

Psychologically, this player shows admirable resilience with a relatively low tilt factor, managing to keep cool despite swings in fortune. And after losing a piece? Prepare for a comeback story worthy of a Hollywood chess movie – kengreig85 wins 100% of those battles, turning adversity into triumph like a true tactician.

Always ready to take on new opponents (or make friends on the chessboard), kengreig85 has played a scattered array of rivals, displaying perfect win rates against some and a mischievous 0% against a few familiar faces – everybody needs an Achilles' heel, after all. In the ever-whirlwind world of rapid chess, kengreig85 stands a crafty competitor with a pinch of humor, a dash of tenacity, and enough games to keep their brain buzzing for years to come!
