Rating & Style

Although the journey through ratings has been a rollercoaster — with a peak Rapid rating of 1096 and a Bulletin high of 806 back in mid-2024 — consistency hasn't exactly been their middle name. But hey, chess is about having fun, learning from losses, and snatching wins when it counts. With a longest winning streak of 8 games and, admittedly, a 12-game losing streak (ouch!), resilience is clearly part of their repertoire.

Known for an early resignation rate around 26%, it seems kjeldahl95 has mastered the art of graceful retreats — sometimes it's better to save the energy for the next clash! Their games tend to last longer when they win (about 34 moves) than when they lose (about 26 moves), indicating battles fought with true grit.

Opening Preferences

On the opening front, kjeldahl95 embraces the classics mixed with some adventurous gambits. They hold their own with the King's Pawn Opening but also dabble daringly in the Englund Gambit and Scandinavian Defense. Their preferred Blitz openings include the King's Pawn Opening and the tricky King's Pawn Opening Leonardis Variation, boasting a respectable ~62% win rate in some variations—clearly, they know how to surprise their opponents.

Playing Rhythm & Quirks

The optimal moment for kjeldahl95 to play? Around 8 AM, when the mind is fresh and the pawns line up with impeccable precision—or at least a better shot at it! Their highest win rates occur mid-morning and early evening, though watch out for the 7 AM hour — a mysterious dip in luck or perhaps a caffeine shortage?

A tilt factor of 12 suggests they keep calm under pressure, but every player needs a coffee break once in a while. Their win rate against lower-rated players is impressively high (~85%), so if you see kjeldahl95 on the board and you’re new to chess, beware!

Fun Fact
