Meet leonardo-f-e: The Rapid Chess Rocket

Once an ambitious chess enthusiast, leonardo-f-e has rocketed up the rapid chess ratings, peaking impressively at 854 in May 2025. From humble beginnings around 237 to smashing through the 700 mark in mere months, this player’s journey is a non-stop roller coaster of wins, losses, and draws — with quite a flair for dramatic comebacks!

Playing Style: leonardo-f-e isn’t your average piece pusher. With an average game length of roughly 56 moves in wins, chess battles tend to be epic sagas rather than fast skirmishes. They prefer to keep things tense till the end, often engaging in fierce endgames — aptly scoring in over half their matches. Oh, and don’t be surprised if leonardo occasionally taps out early with a modest early resignation rate of 3.86%. Hey, nobody likes dragging out a hopeless position!

The Opener’s Arsenal

This player has a soft spot for some quirky and somewhat offbeat openings:

• Van t Kruijs Opening boasts the highest win rate for leonardo, almost 70%—proof that unconventional can be effective!
• French Defense (Normal Variation) and the Blackmar Gambit in Queen’s Pawn openings also rank high in the success chart, hovering above 60% and 56% win rates respectively.
• Conversely, the Nimzowitsch Defense Declined seems to be a thorny beast with only a 35% win rate — sometimes even talented players find the going tough in tricky lines.

Trial by Fire: Rivalries & Records

leonardo-f-e’s record reads like a thrilling drama. Total rapid record is a close tussle: 344 wins, 311 losses, and 33 draws. Remarkably, leonardo has tasted bitter defeat multiple times against frequent foes like narendrasinhrathore and caotienbao123, never yet managing a win against them. But don’t count them out! Against other opponents like harshbabu01 and mdpatil, leonardo boasts a perfect 100% win record — proving they can absolutely demolish when in form.

When to Challenge leonardo-f-e?

According to their personal clock, early mornings (around 1 AM) and afternoons (4 PM to 7 PM) are leonardo's sweet spots, with win rates soaring near 60-66%. But beware, late nights (around 10 PM to midnight) might reveal the infamous “tilt factor” of 8, where resilience is tested and blunders creep in.

The Drama Queen of Endings

leonardo-f-e has an eye for the kill, with checkmates accounting for plenty of wins — and interestingly, a strong tendency to resign games rather than prolong agony in losses. Their comeback rate after being behind is a staggering 75.58%, so never underestimate leonardo even if down a piece or two; they might just snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

Memorable Moments:

A recent masterpiece saw leonardo flawlessly execute a tricky Caro-Kann Two Knights Attack, forcing resignation of the opponent by move 30. As much as leonardo loves to strike, sometimes even this mighty player faces tough lessons — recently succumbing to sharp plays from stiff rivals, but always ready to bounce back stronger.

In a Nutshell

leonardo-f-e is a rapidly improving chess combatant, blending tactical resilience, diverse openings, and a cheeky winning streak that once peaked at 15 consecutive victories. Fluent in complex endgames and occasionally indulging in early quit-outs to save dignity, leonardo brings excitement and spice to every rapid match. Whether you meet them online at 1 AM or a bustling Saturday afternoon, be prepared for a fierce chess battle full of surprises!
