Regan Hui - The Opportunistic Chess Wrangler
Meet Regan Hui, a chess player whose games are filled with dramatic comebacks and a surprising knack for turning the tables even when the odds are stacked against him. Since first dipping their toes into rapid chess back in 2021 with a humble rating of 379, Regan has steadily improved, achieving a rapid rating peak of 1316 by 2025. Bullet chess is another playground for Regan, boasting a max rating over 1200 and an impressive 926 wins out of nearly 2,000 games using a 'Top Secret' opening strategy – because what’s better than keeping your opponents guessing forever?
Known for their resilience, Regan has an outstanding comeback rate north of 81%, never losing a game after losing a piece, and showing a penchant for fighting fiercely until the bitter end. Their average moves per win hover around 65, hinting at marathon battles rather than quick blitz strikes. And yet, despite all these epic battles, Regan keeps their tilt factor reasonably low at 13 – proving they’re tough, but not grumpy.
When playing white, Regan enjoys a slight statistical edge with a win rate of 51.64%, and while black’s potency dips just a touch, at 46.55%, it’s clear that whether light or dark pieces, Regan means business. Tactical awareness is their forte, and with an endgame frequency surpassing 64%, they’re the sort of player who’s just as happy grinding it out as they are launching a furious attack.
Regan’s opponents might fret most about facing them in the wee hours of the morning (3 AM boasts over 54% win rate) or on game days like Friday and Saturday, where Regan’s win rates peak above 50%. And if you think playing bullet means dodging drawn-out confrontations, think again – Regan’s games blend tactical depth with the frantic pace bullet chess demands.
Whether affectionately called "kirito8888888" in ambiguous circles or simply the “Top Secret” opening master, Regan Hui embodies the spirit of a chess warrior: unpredictable, relentless, and always ready for another round on the 64 squares. A word to the wise? Never count Regan out until the king falls. Or they resign early...it happens occasionally (about 3.6% of the time), but we forgive them.
