Profile Summary: lethienson

Meet lethienson, a rapid chess enthusiast whose rating journey resembles a rollercoaster ride—peaking impressively at 799 in early 2025, but with an average rating comfortably cruising around the mid-400s to 500s. Not quite Magnus-level (yet!), but certainly a player who keeps opponents guessing.

Known for resilience, lethienson boasts a remarkable comeback rate of nearly 73%, proving that even when the chips are down, giving up is not in their vocabulary—unless it’s the strategic “early resignation” which they practice sparingly (only about 5% of the time). Their Endgame savvy is notable with a penchant to push through long battles averaging over 60 moves per win.

Their opening repertoire is eclectic but with some clear favorites: the Scotch Game stands undefeated in 3 games - 100% win rate! Elsewhere, they hold respectable performances in the King’s Pawn Opening Kings Knight Variation (60% win rate) and the Caro Kann Defense (a sturdy 75%). However, beware the Sicilian Defense, where only 20% of games end in triumph—clearly a nemesis or an exciting challenge to conquer.

When it comes to opponents, lethienson is a bit of a mystery: they have a love-hate relationship with tahagoat7and, who holds a 100% win rate over them, conveniently balanced by a perfect 100% win against eyezenber and pawncoctael. They face a mix of characters — some friendly, some fierce — but always ready to battle for the next move.

Psychologically, lethienson is a daytime strategist with their best moves coming around 6 PM sharp, boasting a 100% win rate during that hour! The tilt factor is relatively low (7 on some scale of frustration), indicating a cool head under pressure but with just enough fire to keep games exciting.

Chess is not just a game but a daily adventure. lethienson prefers midweek battles, especially on Mondays (60% win rate), and dominates in tactical skirmishes where they often claw back from losing positions. All in all, a player with perseverance, creativity, and a hint of unpredictability — a delightful mix on every chessboard.

Recent matches showcase lethienson’s fighting spirit — a recent checkmate victory in a fierce duel using the French Defense was a highlight, alongside a stubborn resignation win forcing their opponent's capitulation in the Queen's Pawn opening.

Whether you face lethienson online or offline, expect a game that’s part drama, part strategy, and all heart. Just beware the Scotch Game—they don’t lose those!
