About Kurba20

Known for a versatile playing style, Kurba20 dabbles in all time controls — from the lightning-fast chaos of Bullet, the thoughtful tango of Rapid, to the balanced battlefield of Blitz.

  • Peak Rapid Rating: 1483 (March 2022) – Solid enough to intimidate, playful enough to experiment.

Playing Style

Expect endurance and patience — with an emphasis on the endgame. Kurba20's average game stretches around 60 moves whether winning or losing, showcasing a dogged adherence to fighting until the final move. An intriguingly high comeback rate of nearly 80% proves that when the chips are down, Kurba20 doesn't just fold, they flip the board and keep going.

Despite a tilt factor of 13 (chess players, you know what that means), the psychological resilience is remarkable, especially around 6 PM – Kurba20’s best time to play, when brain cells seem to punch back twice as hard.

Signature Openings

Master of many openings but true love is found in classical lines with a bit of spice:

  • Scandinavian Defense: Where Kurba20 boasts a perfect 100% win record in Bullet!
  • Italian Game: An everlasting favorite, with a practical and dynamic approach especially in Rapid and Blitz.
  • Caro-Kann Defense: Solid and sneaky, this defense shows Kurba20’s strategic flair.
  • Philidor Defense and Scotch Game: Reliable workhorses fitting for a fighter who loves tactical skirmishes.

Fun Fact
