Profile Summary: Adi Dasuki (king_raff)
Meet Adi Dasuki, also known on the battlefield as king_raff, a fearless explorer of the 64 squares who prefers the adrenaline rush of Blitz chess but dabbles in Bullet and Rapid formats as well. If chess were a video game, Adi would probably be that player who's simultaneously sipping coffee and plotting a daring queen sacrifice, then mumbling something about "just one more game."
Playing Style & Personality
Adi is a strategist with an almost scientific approach: the average game lasts around 57 moves, proving patience and endurance are key weapons in this chess quest. With a remarkable Comeback Rate of 69% and a nifty knack for winning even after losing a piece (41.8%), this player clearly doesn’t give up without a fight – unless it’s an early resignation, which happens about 1.8% of the time. A mix of warrior and scientist with a pinch of humor, Adi’s style is a labyrinth of cunning tactics and positional surprises.
Career Highlights
- Peak Ratings:
- Blitz: 1085 (April 2021)
- Bullet: 962 (April 2021)
- Rapid: 1233 (March 2021) – well, fancy that!
- Total Recorded Blitz Games: Nearly 560 battles fought with a neck-and-neck win/loss record (270 wins to 272 losses) and a handful of draws to keep the suspense alive.
- Preferred Openings: With a fondness for the Scandinavian Defense (with a solid 62% win rate in Blitz) and the Queen’s Pawn Opening family, Adi likes to surprise opponents early and often – just don’t mention the Mieses Kotrc Variation unless you want to watch Adi struggle a bit (only 29% wins there!).
Fun Facts
- Adi has a fascinating psychological quirk: the best time to challenge king_raff is apparently at 9 PM, when their win rate spikes to 100% (maybe fueled by late-night snacks and inspiration?).
- Despite a fairly volatile rating journey, Adi's resilience is unmatched – savoring the highs, surviving the dips, and always coming back swinging, even if the stats hint at a mild tilt factor of 8 (hey, who hasn't been there?).
- Top Opponents: Adi has tangled most with baginia, kellanpan, and irzal_03, securing victories and learning hard lessons alike.
Recent Notable Games
One spectacular recent win featured a thrilling 41-move encounter employing the Classic Queen’s Pawn Opening - Chigorin Variation, finishing in style with a clean checkmate – a perfect example of patience, preparation, and maybe a pinch of 'luck'!
