rapid, bullet, and daily formats. Since emerging into the chess scene around 2020, Lewis has experienced
the highs and lows typical of a dedicated player, turning every loss into a lesson and every win into a story.
Rating Highlights and Growth
Lewis kicked off with modest blitz ratings hovering around 600 in late 2020, only to rocket to a blitz peak of
1239 in November 2024. Rapid games have been no less thrilling, with ratings soaring to a lofty
1210. While his bullet rating is a nimble 937, don’t be fooled – bullet is a sanguine battlefield where Lewis is refining his speed and accuracy every day.
Playing Style: The Art of the Comeback
Known for an impressive 83.31% comeback rate, Lewis doesn't just resign to fate – he fights back when losing pieces,
winning nearly half the time after such setbacks. With an average of just over 56 moves per win, games featuring Lewis often turn into epic battles,
showcasing deep endgame skill with a penchant for persistence.
Favorites and Arms of Choice
Opening up with a fondness for the Scandinavian Defense (Mieses Kotrc Main Line) and the Accelerated London System, Lewis
navigates the choppy waters of chess openings with nearly a 50% win rate in these tested arenas. Whether unleashing the
Englund Gambit or maneuvering the Queens Pawn Opening Zukertort Variation, Lewis has a tactical arsenal designed to keep opponents guessing – and often scratching their heads.
Statistical Snapshots and Humorous Nuggets
- A nearly balanced Win/Loss record in blitz, a tightrope walk of 5768 wins to 5767 losses – talk about suspense!
- Regularly clocks the best moves around 10:00 AM, but hey, don’t bet against him rolling a blunder at 4 AM, when his win rate spikes to an impressive 54.47% — night owl tactics!
- Doesn’t admit defeat early unless absolutely necessary, sporting a surprisingly low 3.1% early resignation rate. This guy fights on until the last pawn whispers "checkmate."
Recent Triumph And Tribulations
Just recently, Lewis took down the formidable KasparovZeynel with a sharp execution in the Queens Pawn Opening Accelerated London System,
clinching victory by resignation after a tactical dance of pieces. Not all battles end happily; a tough checkmate loss to RizalFadly shows that
even warriors stumble. But as chess legends say, every loss seeds the next victory.
