Player Profile: kka2303

Meet kka2303, a tenacious chess enthusiast navigating the battles of the 64 squares with a rating rollercoaster that would make even the most daring thrill-seeker dizzy. Their rapid rating peaked at a surprising 511 in August 2024 — a blazing peak only to be followed by some humbling dips, proving that even grandmasters were once novices. By early 2025, they steadied into the 180s rapidly, showing growth and persistence.

Although rapid games show a respectable win rate hovering around 36%, kka2303 truly shines in bullet chess, boasting a near 44.4% win rate—quick reflexes and sharp tactics seem to be their playground. However, this lightning speed sometimes results in streaks of both glory and woe, with the longest winning streak standing at 4 games, and the longest losing streak stretching to 6, making every game a dramatic saga.

kka2303 is no stranger to quick decisions—about 7.4% of their games end in early resignation, possibly saving themselves from further chess heartbreaks. Their average game length varies wildly, averaging roughly 40 moves per win but a grueling 59 moves per loss, indicating thrilling battles that sometimes exhaust their warriors on the board.

A strategic enthusiast, they dabble anonymously in "Top Secret" openings (aka the mysterious and mysterious-less), engaging in 93 rapid encounters with this approach. A noteworthy quirk: kka2303 has a penchant for ending games by resignation when they’re victorious—28 wins this way! Timeouts also seem to be a factor, with 14 wins and 13 losses by the clock running out, suggesting that sometimes speed is both friend and foe.

Victory isn’t evenly spread — kka2303 enjoys a flawless 100% win record against a handful of opponents (yes, you’re on notice!), but some regular sparring partners like dokoy222 and bigdyl001 remain elusive foes, with no wins yet.

Playing Style and Psychological Fortitude

• Tactical Awareness: A comeback artist with a remarkable 74% comeback rate after setbacks. However, sometimes losing a piece dampens the spirits, with only a 33% win rate after such mishaps.
• Time of Day: The early bird catches the chess win — playing at 7 AM yields a sparkling 100% win rate, so don’t wake them before then!
• Color Advantage: White pieces bring more success (46% win rate) compared to Black (31%), classic and expected, but still a hopeful sign for a brighter future as Black.

In Summary

kka2303 is a spirited competitor with flashes of brilliance, a resilient mentality, and an approach to chess that is as unpredictable as a wild roller coaster ride. Whether crushing opponents at dawn or grappling with time pressure, their journey continues to be one to watch — after all, every grandmaster starts somewhere, sometimes with a resignation or timeout in tow!
