Profile Summary: KotrynaJa
Meet KotrynaJa, a chess enthusiast navigating the rollercoaster world of online chess ratings with a mix of grit, occasional brilliance, and a healthy dose of humor. Armed primarily with the Kings Pawn and Grob openings, KotrynaJa is not afraid to break from tradition — and sometimes tradition fights back!
Chess Journey & Ratings
Starting the year 2025 with a blitz rating hovering mostly around 100 to 140, KotrynaJa scaled the peak blitz rating of 218 in January. Daily chess saw a perfect 400 rating — a small sample size of one game, but hey, who’s counting? Rapid and bullet performances have been a wild ride, peaking at 224 and 169 respectively, only reminding us that speed kills — sometimes in favor, sometimes against.
Wins, Losses, and Everything In Between
Overall, the stats tell a story of determination. With 52 wins, 99 losses, and 10 draws in blitz, and a respectable comeback rate of nearly 60%, KotrynaJa battles on with a spirit that refuses to quit easily. Whether they’re resigning early (about 29% of the time) or drifting in lengthy endgames, the average moves per win of over 44 show patience for the long game.
Playing Style & Quirks
With a slight edge playing black (winning about 31% of games) compared to white (around 29%), KotrynaJa keeps opponents guessing. Opening choices like the playful Grob and the ever-popular Kings Pawn Opening dominate the repertoire, with an adventurous taste for the less orthodox. The English Opening even boasts a near 67% win rate in blitz — a hidden gem in their arsenal.
The psychological resilience is notable too; a low tilt factor of 11 makes KotrynaJa the calm in the storm — unless it's after an 11-game losing streak, which is the stuff of legend. If you ever catch KotrynaJa online, early mornings (around 5 AM) and weekdays like Tuesday and Saturday might be the best bets to witness top-notch gameplay.
Recent Battles
One of the freshest victories came from a quirky game against "secrranu" where KotrynaJa clinched the win after the opponent abandoned the game — a classic cliffhanger with an abandonment finish. In another recent win, the Grob Opening dazzled, showcasing KotrynaJa’s flair for catching opponents off guard, finishing with a victorious time win.
But not every battle ends in glory; losses to opponents like "gabries123" remind us that in chess, even the mightiest stumble — often spectacularly.
Final Thoughts
KotrynaJa is a player who embodies the true spirit of chess: a blend of strategy, unpredictability, and perseverance. Rating numbers may fluctuate, but the passion for the game remains constant. Whether you face KotrynaJa across the board or follow their games online, expect a player who never fails to entertain and fight till the very end — sometimes winning, sometimes learning, but always playing.
