Profile: luke247346
Meet luke247346, a tenacious and slightly unpredictable chess adventurer whose ranking journey resembles the thrilling ups and downs of a rollercoaster — sometimes rising to dizzying heights, sometimes plummeting with a gasp. Starting at a respectable daily rating peak of 946 in early 2023, Luke has battled through fluctuating ratings, showing resilience that could impress even the most stoic grandmasters.
Specializing mainly in Blitz, Bullet, and Rapid formats, Luke swings between fierce skirmishes and quick tactical maneuvers. With over 700 games played in Bullet alone, boasting a nearly even win/loss ratio, Luke keeps opponents guessing — and his game count shows he’s more persistent than a pawn determined to become a queen.
Highlight moments include a peak Rapid rating of 953 in 2024—clearly when Luke’s mind is firing on all cylinders. His recent victories often come from the classic and ever-reliable Giuoco Piano Game, where he has a perfect 100% win record (though, admittedly, only from two intense showdowns). Luke’s style? A blend of patience and sudden bursts of activity, with an average winning game lasting about 55 moves—proof that he’s no-speed-runner but rather a strategist who enjoys the long chess dialogues.
Luke’s psychological profile reveals a player who sometimes wrestles with the infamous lineup killer: tilt — clocking a tilt factor of 12, which means when things go sideways, it can get spicy. His best time to attack the board? The mystical early hours around 4 AM, when sleep deprivation breeds creativity or madness (jury’s still out). Interestingly, Luke has an impressive 68% comeback rate after falling behind, making him a formidable opponent who hates giving up.
Off the board, he’s a connoisseur of Early Resignation (5.59% of games) to save time — probably imagining himself binge-watching a favorite series rather than staring at a hopeless position. His most legendary winning streak reached an epic 11 games, balanced by a humbling 12 straight losses at one point—because, hey, even heroes have bad days.
Who has felt the sting of luke247346's pieces? Angel-fanben and em1l1oplayschess have the dubious honor of facing up to a 100% loss rate against him, while carsonjones12 proves a more stubborn adversary, flirting with a nearly even win battle.
Recent Epic Triumph
In a recent live game from May 2025, Luke executed a masterful checkmate using the Giuoco Piano opening — a slow-burning battle ending in a sharp knight strike delivering the final blow. The game lasted 33 moves, a blend of tactical precision and patience culminating in checkmate at move 33, proving that sometimes old-school openings still pack a punch.
In Summary
In essence, luke247346 is a persistent, passionate, and somewhat unpredictable chess battler who navigates through the thrilling chaos of online chess with gusto. Expect rollercoaster games, a knack for dramatic comebacks, and occasional strategic brilliance mixed with learn-as-you-go enthusiasm. He might not be Magnus Carlsen just yet, but against luke247346, you better be ready for a fight — and maybe a laugh or two.
