Playing Style & Psychology
Krasimir's games tend to be thoughtful yet spirited. He averages about 75 moves per win, proving that giving up early isn't his style—unless it’s to fetch a coffee. The average loss is longer, suggesting he fights hard even when the chips are down. His early resignation rate is a humble 1.04%, so expect him to play until the last piece breathes.
Interestingly, his best time to play is around 9 AM—early riser or just enjoys a good morning coffee with his pawns? The psychological tilt factor stands at 15, which means while he can get frustrated, he mostly keeps his cool. His win rates on white and black hover around the mid-40s to high 40s percentage-wise, reflecting a balanced proficiency with the opening advantage or defending the dark pieces.
Favorite Openings
Krasimir has a fondness for the King's Fianchetto Opening, especially in Blitz and Rapid games, boasting a win rate near 46%. He favors sound defenses like the Scandinavian Defense and the Indian Game Tartakower Attack, sometimes flirting with the Modern Defense when feeling adventurous. The dark squares beware!
Record Against Opponents
KM-70 has an eclectic mix of opponents, taking on players like "dizanata," "thetaclear," and many others in repeated battles. Against some, his win rate proudly stands at 100% (a little reminder that sometimes the opponent Doesn’t Even Know What Hit Them™). Though he has had foes with less friendly outcomes (looking at you, "ropit_12" and some others), Krasimir's resilience shines through.
Noteworthy Games
His latest victory was a masterstroke against ehtz_joemary, where he navigated through the London System with cool precision, winning by resignation after a well-maneuvered attack and solid endgame play – the kind of finish that makes your opponent rethink their whole chess life.
However, even the best have their off days. His most recent loss came after a Scandinavian Defense game against ryanrezzx, reminding us all that chess is sometimes unpredictable and merciless, but hey, it's all part of the grand game.
