Meet Jundi Ibadirrahman, known in the chess cosmos simply as lntake, a player whose rating swings and opening repertoire tell quite the story — a mix of daring gambits, epic comebacks, and occasional “oops” moments. With a blitz peak rating of 394 in June 2025 (yes, under 400 but don’t underestimate the fire!), Jundi is the type who prefers to keep opponents on their toes, sometimes tilting games like a boss with a tilt factor of 9 (because who isn’t a little human when it comes to 64 squares?).
Playing Style
Jundi's chess style is a charming cocktail: tactical awareness that fuels an impressive comeback rate of nearly 70%, but watch out — the early resignation rate of 14.6% shows they know when to admit, “Yep, this one’s lost,” and save energy for the next battle. Games tend to last, with an average of about 50 moves per win, suggesting plenty of strategic depth and endgame play (which happens in 38% of games).
Favorite Openings
Variety is the spice of Jundi’s chess life. In blitz, the Pirc Defense and King’s Pawn Opening, King’s Knight Variation shine brightest, boasting win rates over 64%, while the Scandinavian Defense Closed also keeps the margin positive at 62.5%. In bullet, they surprise foes with the Englund Gambit and Queen’s Pawn Mikenas Defense, both with a 75% win rate — a testament to fearless, aggressive play when the clock ticks under a minute.
Statistical Highlights
Blitz record dances on the edge: 272 wins to 270 losses with 17 draws — talk about balanced rivalry!
Rapid: almost equal footing with 91 wins and 89 losses.
Bullet battles are quick and messy: 47 wins against 41 losses.
Daily chess peak rating? A surprising 800 — apparently, Jundi shines with the patience of a saint when time is generous.
Psychological Quirks
Jundi’s best cerebral sparks fly around 4 a.m. — maybe fueled by midnight snacks or just pure genius when the world sleeps. Although they don’t always win against higher-rated opponents (16.67% win rate above their rating, ouch!), they demolish those rated below with nearly 85% wins, proving they’re no pushover.
Recent Games Snapshot
In their latest famous victory, Jundi (playing as White) outmaneuvered hotshot1017 with a precise King's Pawn Opening, winning on time after a thrilling 36-move tussle full of tactical fireworks. The last loss? A tough checkmate by AEGEZ in the Scandinavian Defense — hey, even champs get checkmated!
Whether dismantling opponents with a sneaky Scandinavian or storming the center with Vienna Game insights, Jundi blends passion, unpredictability, and moments of pure brilliance. When not conquering the board, you might find them debating if the next opening should be a slick Pirc or a wild Englund Gambit — why not both?
