Meet lacubada, a blitz battler with an intriguing style and a rollercoaster ride of ratings between 1196 and a spirited peak of 1594 achieved back in November 2021. With over 8,000 blitz games under their belt, lacubada thrives in the fast and furious format—often trading blows with opponents in a whirlwind of fast moves and rapid resignations.

With a near-perfect balance of wins and losses—4413 each—plus 513 draws, this chess warrior embodies resilience. Their longest winning streak of 10 games reminds us that once lacubada gets in the zone, watch out! However, they’ve also faced their demons with an 18-game losing streak, proving that even the best know the pain of falling into the rabbit hole. The current winning streak of 3 games shows they’re climbing back up and definitely still hungry for victories.

lacubada’s psychological armor is impressive: a tilt factor of just 18 means they usually keep their cool, even when the tactics get trickier than a squirrel on a chessboard. They’re known for a staggering 81.33% comeback rate, frequently turning positions around even after losing a piece—talk about fighting spirit!

When it comes to openings, lacubada prefers the mysterious "Top Secret" repertoire in blitz with a respectable 47.25% win rate, leaving opponents guessing and scratching their heads. Their favorite time to reign supreme? Sharp as ever at 5 PM, when their win rate peaks near 57%. Early risers or late-night strategists, beware—17:00 is lacubada’s prime time.

Known for long games full of intricacies (their avg. moves per win hover around 85), lacubada’s style favors deep, calculated battles rather than quick tricks. They often end games through resignation or timeouts rather than flashy checkmates—because sometimes the thrill is in the tension, not just the finishing blow.

The player’s record with frequent opponents reveals some straightforward relationships: 100% wins against players like flash1981 and wasabae, and a little tougher battles with friends such as dsnaranjo789, where the win rate dips below 25%. But hey, every hero needs their fierce rivals!

Recently, lacubada showed skillful command of the King’s Fianchetto Opening and Pirc Defense, securing wins by resignation and time. If there is a secret weapon, it might just be their perseverance and penchant for quiet but steady pressure.

In short, lacubada is the blitz hero you didn’t know you needed: a resilient, strategic tactician with a knack for comebacks and plenty of game time logged. Whether dodging forks or orchestrating long endgame dances, they play to win—and sometimes, to remind us all that chess is as much a mental marathon as it is a battle of pieces.

*Warning: Challenging lacubada may result in sudden bouts of admiration, sprinkled with occasional frustration and awe.*
