Profile Summary: Kuti196

Meet Kuti196, a tenacious rapid chess enthusiast currently navigating the thrilling rollercoaster of ratings somewhere between the fledgling and the formidable, with a peak rapid rating hitting a proud 439 in May 2025. With 37 rapid games under their belt, Kuti196 has claimed 19 wins and endured 16 losses, only occasionally opting for a peaceful draw (twice so far). A bit like that friend who insists on finishing the puzzle solo before bedtime, their games tend to average around 48 moves when victorious—signs of patience, persistence, and perhaps a slight addiction to endgames, which they find in more than a third of their matches.

When it comes to openings, Kuti196 displays a fondness for Petrov's Defense, winning a solid 57% of these encounters. However, not all opening choices bring equal joy—there's a bit of heartbreak waiting in the King's Pawn Opening and English Opening King's English Queen Variation, where victories remain elusive. But hey, every great player has their kryptonite!

Despite the occasional tumble, Kuti196 boasts a noteworthy comeback prowess, bouncing back from losing a piece to win over 42% of the time—a decent fighter's spirit. That said, early resignations happen nearly 19% of the time, suggesting an occasional short fuse or a philosophical take of “why drag it out when you see the writing on the wall?”

Time-wise, if you want to catch Kuti196 at their most lethal, set your clock to noon—an undefeated 100% win rate then! Evenings, especially around 6 PM, appear a little trickier, with some ups and downs reminiscent of a caffeinated squirrel in a quiet library.

The psychological battle on the board is partially revealed by a modest tilt factor of 3, meaning Kuti196 keeps their cool pretty well—most of the time. A true tactician who thrives white’s side, converting chances with a commendable 66.67% success rate, while black pieces deliver more of a challenge (36.84% win rate).

Opponents beware: recent victims include d030112 and helene7814, both defeated by checkmate, proving Kuti196 still packs a punch to finish games decisively. They tend to struggle against vaszee and sonofmay, highlighting ongoing rivalries that definitely spice things up!

All told, Kuti196 is a spirited rapid player blending thoughtful strategy with flashes of aggressive finishing and a healthy dash of humor to survive the ups and downs of the chess battlefield. With a peak score growing and lessons learned from every game, the future looks bright—or at least checkered with tactical adventures yet to come.
