Profile: lacruyff - The Chess Enigma
Meet lacruyff, a chess player whose rating graphs look like a roller coaster ride—sometimes thrilling, other times confusing, but never boring. Specializing mostly in Rapid games, lacruyff boasts a respectable peak Rating of 1205 in 2025, while dabbling in Blitz and Bullet where fortunes fluctuate wildly.
Playing Style & Personality
Known for a sly tactical awareness, lacruyff has a near-mythical 100% win rate after losing a piece—apparently, giving away material just spices things up! With an Early Resignation Rate of just 3%, they’re hardly one to give up easily.
Games can be long affairs, averaging over 57 moves per win and nearly 64 moves per loss, proving lacruyff relishes in endgame battles and doesn’t mind a crusade through the trenches—60% of all games end in endgames.
Openings: The Secret Sauce
The master of the mysterious "Top Secret" opening—used in most games with a respectable win rate close to 49% in Blitz and an even better 55% in Rapid. Other favorites include King’s Pawn Opening and the elusive Van t Kruijs Opening, where lacruyff holds a flawless 100% win record (no pressure!).
On the Clock and Mood
Afternoon and early evening are lacruyff’s prime battle hours—win rates often spike past 60% around noon and eleven am. Though mornings and late nights seem their kryptonite, expect miracles as their 5 AM win rate sits at a perfect 100%, a secret weapon for early risers.
A tilt factor of 5 means the emotional roller coaster is real but manageable—chess here is fun, with some fiery moments peppered in.
Opponent Chronicles
Some opponents are more reliable than others: lacruyff has crushed players like kutmm and lamproiemarine with 100% success but seems to have a few casualties against others — hey, nobody’s perfect. Some rivalries could write their own drama series.
Summary
Lacruyff is a resilient tactician who thrives on long, drawn-out battles and isn’t afraid to embrace the chaos of losing pieces to turn the tide. If you ever face them, beware the Top Secret opening and anticipate a game that may last more moves than you bargained for. Fun-loving, stubborn, and unpredictable—a true chess character you won’t forget easily.
