Profile: krujjster, International Master

Meet krujjster, an International Master who doesn't just push pawns— they push limits! With a FIDE title in hand and a penchant for blitz and bullet games, krujjster is a force on the virtual board.

Since 2020, krujjster's blitz rating soared from a respectable 2419 to an electrifying peak of 2787 in 2024, proving that practice and persistence trump all — except maybe coffee. Not to be outdone, in the rapid and bullet spheres, their ratings hover in the 2700+ and 2500+ regions respectively, a testament to their speed and tactical wizardry.

With an astonishing longest winning streak of 14 games and a win rate flirting with 50% across thousands of blitz games, krujjster's resilience is as impressive as their ability to come back from adversity— a 91% comeback rate, to be precise. Lose a piece? No problem. With a win rate after losing material at nearly 100%, krujjster turns setbacks into setups.

They average about 81 moves per win, demonstrating a fondness for long, strategic battles rather than quick smashes — impressive stamina and patience for the fast-paced world of online chess! Additionally, krujjster tends to perform better when playing white with a win rate of roughly 52%, while black pieces bring a respectable 45% success.

Their style? High endgame frequency of nearly 85% — this player loves a good finale, making them a master of the "death march" across the 64 squares. They also have a low early resignation rate of 0.42%, which means they hardly ever throw in the towel early — fighting to the last rook, knight, or pawn.

Off the board, krujjster’s tilt factor may hit 12 (we all have those days...), but their composed psychological resilience shows in their ability to hold steady across various time controls, with a slight edge during early morning and late night hours when most mortals dream.

Most played opponent? marks1420, with a win rate of 58.5% — time to shake that hand or carefully plan a rematch!

In short, krujjster is a tenacious, strategic, and speedy gladiator of the chess world, always ready to flash that tactical brilliance and keep the game as exciting as a Netflix thriller.

Feedback for krujjster

You've demonstrated strong play and good understanding in your recent games, especially in your wins. Here are some constructive insights to help you continue improving:

Strengths:

  • Opening Knowledge: You handle English Opening and Caro-Kann structures confidently, often developing pieces quickly and controlling the center well.
  • Attacking Play: Your ability to launch kingside attacks and coordinate your queen and rooks effectively stands out, as seen in games where you leveraged pressure on your opponent’s king.
  • Endgame Technique: Your endgame awareness is evident in your wins, often consolidating advantages and converting material or positional edges reliably.

Areas for Improvement:

  • Tactical Awareness in Complex Positions: In some losses, tactical oversights or allowing your opponent to equalize quickly led to disadvantages. Try to slow down and double-check for opponent threats, especially in sharp positions.
  • Pawn Structure Management: Some games show opportunities to improve your pawn structure, avoiding isolated or backward pawns that could be targets in the middlegame or endgame.
  • Time Management: Maintaining balanced time across the game will help you avoid time pressure mistakes. Practice pacing yourself to keep sufficient think-time in critical moments.

Suggestions:

  • Continue studying key pawn breaks and typical plans in your favorite opening lines to deepen your strategic understanding.
  • Review your losses focusing on moments where the position became unclear to improve calculation and defense.
  • Work on visualization and calculation exercises to sharpen spotting short tactical sequences.

Your recent wins indicate you’re on a solid path! Keep analyzing your games, and stay proactive about learning from both wins and losses.

Keep up the great work, krujjster!
