Player Profile: kulaseba

Meet kulaseba, a tenacious rapid chess player whose rating graph looks like a thrilling rollercoaster—starting strong in 2024 with a peak rapid rating of 1059 achieved in August, and steadily climbing above the 800s to 866 by mid-2025. This player is no stranger to the battlefield, having fought through 4,535 rapid games with almost an equal tally of wins (2,133) and losses (2,148), sprinkled with some draws (254).

Style & Strategy

If patience is a virtue, kulaseba’s endurance is saintly: their average moves per win stand at about 55, but losses drag on longer at nearly 74 moves, proving they rarely give up without a fight. An impressive 63.66% endgame frequency means kulaseba loves to grind it out to the bitter end. Early resignations are kept to a respectful 1.86%, so rest assured, this player stays until the final curtain.

White pieces bring about a slightly better fortune with a 48.33% win rate, while Black holds a respectable 45.74%. Kulaseba is also a comeback kid with a 70.14% comeback rate after setbacks, but beware: losing a piece makes winning tougher (40.05%).

Opening Favorites

  • Bishop's Opening stands tall with a win rate over 52%, solidifying kulaseba’s attacking roots.
  • The King's Pawn Opening and its King's Knight Variation form the backbone, with near 48% success.
  • Scandinavian Defense (Mieses-Kotrc Variation) is the trusty surprise weapon, boasting a balanced 50.23% win rate.

Performance Trends & quirks

Playing at 3 AM seems to be kulaseba's secret weapon, with the highest win rate around this hour. Who knew those late-night coffee-fueled moves were so potent? Beware the psychological tilt factor of 11 — even the best have their off moments.

Matches against the enigmatic amitg24 famously end in a clean victory for kulaseba, boasting a perfect 100% win rate! But watch out when facing pknigs, where victories are as rare as a peaceful summit in chess drama.

Memorable Games

Among kulaseba’s highlight reels is the dazzling victory on June 3, 2025, finishing with a brilliant queen checkmate after only 12 moves in a Bishops Opening Berlin Defense battle. Swift, sneaky, and sharp—like a chess ninja in the night!

Summary

In essence, kulaseba is a dedicated rapid player who knows how to wear down opponents, loves the nuances of the endgame, and often strikes when the clock ticks late at night. Whether grinding out wins or bouncing back from losses, this player's journey is one of persistence, strategy, and the occasional 3 AM eureka moment. Expect exciting games, occasional heartbreaks, but above all, relentless passion for chess.
