About krizzthian

Meet krizzthian, a spirited and resilient chess enthusiast who dances on the 64 squares with a rating rollercoaster that'd make a seasoned thriller author jealous. In Rapid chess, krizzthian soared to a peak rating of 566 in May 2025, proving they’re no stranger to climbing the ladder — even if some rungs involve a few slips and slides along the way.

With an average Rapid rating comfortably lingering around the mid-400s, and an occasional Bullet game or two (where the rating hovers in the low 100s), this player knows how to mix quick flashes of brilliance with more deliberate, thoughtful bouts of battle.

Playing Style & Personality

A fan of the Scandinavian Defense and French Defense, krizzthian has a knack for tactical skirmishes — boasting a stellar win rate of over 70% with these openings in Rapid games. The Mieses-Kotrc Variation of the Scandinavian especially seems to be their secret sauce with an impressive 73%+ win rate across 15 games. When the chips are down, don’t count krizzthian out: they bounce back from losing pieces with a solid 41% win rate, proving that desperation can fuel brilliance.

But beware chatting with them about “opening theory” — with an average preparation depth of just 2 moves, they prefer the charming chaos of the middle game over memorizing endless lines. The games last about 55 moves on average when winning, so krizzthian has the endurance to grind down opponents while probably humming their favorite tunes.

Record & Rivalries

The rivalry with estrella_centurin is particularly one-sided, with krizzthian dominating 7 wins and holding 1 draw over 8 encounters. Meanwhile, matches against others can be a mix of heartbreak and triumph, showcasing the ups and downs of chess life. Fun fact: krizzthian has a surprisingly high success rate against casual foes but finds climbing the ranks against similarly rated opponents quite the challenge, with a tilt factor sitting at a modest 9 — not bad for a player who probably plays Best Move at bedtime.

Recent Highlights

Recently, krizzthian delivered a beautifully orchestrated checkmate against sahil586, showcasing aggressive play starting with 1. e4 and culminating in a swift attack that ended at move 17 with Bh3#. A quick, sharp finish for the record books (and a humbling moment for the opponent!)

You can catch krizzthian trying out bold gambits, unpredictable knight hops to the rim, and some daring captures that might make even grandmasters raise an eyebrow. If chess had a personality test, krizzthian would be the fiery mix of strategist, actor, and maybe a bit of mischievous prankster.

Next up? Perhaps breaking that elusive 600 rating in Rapid. No pressure!
