Profile Summary: LEGEND '-'
Known in the chess world as legendzzin, LEGEND '-' is a mysterious force on the 64 squares, blending moments of brilliance with some humbling lessons in humility. With a peak Bullet rating of 1665 (September 2024) and a Rapid top score of 1321 (March 2023), this player shows flashes of rapid-fire tactical wizardry mixed with the patience of a philosopher—although not without their fair share of time scrambles and tactical mishaps.
Chess Style & Stats
- Playing Style: Prefers sharp, aggressive openings like the Queens Pawn Chigorin Variation where LEGEND boasts a perfect 100% win rate in Bullet games. On Rapid, the favorite battleground, "Kings Pawn" and "Scandinavian Defense" see their best success, hovering above a solid 50% win rate.
- Tactical Awareness: With a comeback rate of 68% and a surprisingly high win rate even after losing material (44%), LEGEND is the comeback kid who sometimes forgets to chill but redeems with fiery counterattacks.
- Psychological Trends: Watch out around midnight! It’s when LEGEND plays best, boasting a tilt factor of 14, meaning a few frustrating blunders here and there—but who doesn’t when the brain starts dreaming of checkmates?
- Time Controls: Excels in Bullet and Rapid chess with plenty of experience, but Blitz remains a bit of a guilty pleasure with only 6 recorded losses and no wins so far—looks like Blitz is LEGEND’s quest for redemption.
Career Highlights
LEGEND has gathered extensive experience with over 1500 Rapid games analyzed, capturing 798 wins, 840 losses, and 51 draws. The wins often come from gutsy, tactical play, making opponents sweat especially in key opening lines.
The longest winning streak: a jaw-dropping 13 games—because LEGEND knows how to turn adrenaline into glory. However, the longest losing streak of 14 also shows the resilient warrior spirit, never quitting no matter how sharp the storm.
Memorable Games
Among the latest triumphs sits a brilliant victory against willienelson80 in May 2025, showcasing a stylish Reti Opening Kingside Fianchetto Variation where careful positional play and time pressure combined for a satisfying win on time. Also notable is checkmating cwel_kapa_09 in a swift tactical battle within the Scotch Gambit.
Even the losses tell a story. A tough game against kotor73 ended in a time loss, illustrating that even the best have off days—and that LEGEND '-' is still sharpening their claws.
