Phelipi Ismael Cerri Da Silva
Known in the chess world by the enigmatic username L1P32464, Phelipi is a Rapid specialist who dances on the 64 squares with a mix of tenacity, unpredictability, and occasional bursts of brilliance. His journey through the ranks is nothing short of a rollercoaster that has seen thrilling highs and puzzling lows.
Rating and Style
With a peak Rapid rating soaring up to an impressive 389 in April 2025, plus a Blitz peak at a spicy 400, and a Bullet maximum of 634 — Phelipi's speed chess game is arguably his most merciless weapon. Yet, despite some rocky patches, including a brutally honest Early Resignation Rate of 20.13%, he never shies away from the fight.
Playing Flair and Favorite Openings
Phelipi shows a special fondness for the Bishop's Opening, where he boasts a respectable winning rate above 53% in Rapid games, and swagger on the board is evident with his use of the King's Pawn Opening King's Knight Variation boasting a perfect 100% win rate in Bullet (though in just two games, because, hey, it’s about quality, right?). He's not afraid to venture into less traveled paths such as the Englund Gambit—a risky but exciting choice, where results are mixed but never boring.
