Profile of Chess Enthusiast: liel31

Meet liel31, a resilient and tactical player whose chess journey is sprinkled with notable highs, strategic comebacks, and the occasional plot twist on the 64 squares.

Rating Highlights & Style

Liel31’s peak blitz rating of 1362 (achieved back in December 2020) suggests a swift and aggressive style, complemented by a bullet peak of 1132 and rapid at 729. Not a grandmaster—yet—but definitely a fighter who knows how to bounce back:

  • Comeback rate: A stunning 78.66% — when the chips are down, expect a gritty battle.
  • Average moves per win: About 50 moves, suggesting patience and persistence.
  • Early resignations: Just 4.53%, making it clear: surrender is a last resort.

Opening Repertoire & Performance

When it comes to openings, liel31 has a quirky but effective style:

  • Blitz: Master of the Van t Kruijs Opening — boasting an unbeatable 100% win rate over 16 games. Yes, undefeated.
  • Favored other openings like the French Defense and the Giuoco Piano where success rates hover around 80%.
  • Bullet games are more varied; wielding the Englund Gambit like a dagger with a surprising 76.92% win rate.

Strengths and Quirks

Liel31 doesn’t back down from a challenge, but they do have a “tilt factor” of 10 — which means losing a handful in a row can leave them grumbling before resetting their brain chips. Their best time of day to play? Exactly 7 am — the magical hour when their mind is sharp and the coffee is fresh.

Recent Battles

On May 6, 2025, in a bullet tournament, liel31 conquered the board with a sleek checkmate using the classic Giuoco Piano Italian Four Knights Variation. The final flourish came after an intense 35-move duel — quite the morning workout!

Yet, the road is not without bumps. The same day, a loss on time in a tricky English Opening reminded them that even the best have off moments. But fear not—liel31 tends to come back stronger, ready to surprise foes with sharp tactics and endgame cunning.

Opponent Insights

With a win record against many opponents edging close to perfection (100% vs several players!), it’s clear that liel31 has a knack for learning from and dominating lesser-known rivals. Against familiar foes like sifatarifen, the battles are tougher (around 57% win rate), proving every game is a new challenge.

Summary

Whether blitzing through a rapid exchange or edging out a bullet finish by the clock, liel31 is a player who mixes tenacity with tactical flair. Not afraid to venture off the beaten path (thank you, Van t Kruijs Opening!), and armed with a comeback instinct rivaling the best, this player reminds us all: chess is as much about spirit as strategy.

Keep an eye on liel31 — the next sharp move may just checkmate your expectations.
