Profile: LAIGALITERALLY
Meet LAIGALITERALLY, a chess enthusiast whose journey through the 64 squares is as unpredictable as a squirrel on espresso. With a peak rapid rating soaring to 1314 in May 2025, this player has demonstrated frequent flashes of brilliance — often mixed with bouts of “what just happened?” moments.
LAIGALITERALLY prefers the rapid format, having engaged in nearly a thousand games opening with moves so secret, they even stump themselves sometimes. The “Top Secret” opening choice in rapid play accounts for an impressive 962 games; however, it has a maddening win rate hovering just above 42%, suggesting they like to keep both opponents and spectators guessing.
Unwavering in their love for the “King’s Fianchetto Opening,” LAIGALITERALLY boasts a respectable 55.45% win rate in rapid play, and an even sharper edge in blitz, where the win rate with this opening nudges upwards of 50%. A tactical mind shines brightest when wielding the King’s Indian Attack, where rapid win rates climb to a confident 73.33% — perhaps the magic sauce behind many last-minute victories.
With a playing style that blends patience and aggression, this player racks up an average of 52 moves per win—proof that LAIGALITERALLY enjoys long, strategic battles where every pawn push counts. Yet, when losses come, they’re usually swift, indicating occasional moments of “Oops, should’ve seen that coming!”
Psychologically, they’re no stranger to frustration, tallying a tilt factor of 12. Still, their resilience is impressive, boasting a comeback rate of nearly 70%, making them like a chess phoenix rising from the ashes. Their best time to strike? Noon sharp—the ideal hour when concentration peaks and coffee is just right.
Despite some tough competitions particularly against players like kniomse (with a win rate under 25%), LAIGALITERALLY shows a remarkable knack for dispatching a wide variety of opponents with nearly a 100% win rate against dozens of rivals who’d rather not reveal their identities.
