Player Profile: LYNN2358
LYNN2358 is a determined and resilient chess enthusiast who has been making their mark primarily in the fast-paced world of Blitz and Rapid chess. Known for their aggressive openings and sometimes questionable early resignations (7.61% of games, but who’s counting?), LYNN brings an average of about 64 moves per win but gives up a bit quicker when the tides turn, averaging 56 moves per loss.
They’ve topped out at a peak Blitz rating of 853 in February 2024 and reached a respectable 1553 in Rapid back in October 2023. These numbers suggest a player who's still climbing the ranks but armed with enough experience to be feared in quicker time controls.
Playing Style & Strengths
- Preferred Time Control: Blitz (where the adrenaline and finger speed truly matter)
- Best Time of Day to Play: 8 PM — because apparently, the chess gods are nocturnal.
- Comeback Rate: A fierce 77.26% – LYNN is not one to roll over after losing material, proving that heroes do exist in chess.
- Opening Repertoire: A fondness for the Van't Kruijs Opening, scoring nearly 48.42% victories in Blitz and a slightly improved 51.39% in King's Pawn Variations, showing some classic tastes with a flair.
- Endgame Commitment: LYNN loves a good endgame, making it to this phase in nearly 60% of their matches — probably because they believe true skill is tested when fewer pieces are on the board.
Notable Opponents & Performance
LYNN2358 has battled an impressive array of opponents, holding interesting records such as a clean 100% win rate against asin_bitsin, but struggles a bit against tougher adversaries like danison70 with a challenging 23.58% win rate. The player's competitive spirit shines through though, consistently climbing back after tough matches.
Recent Form
Recently, LYNN secured some fresh wins by resignation and checkmate, showing strategic prowess and confidence when it counts. Their battlefield includes fierce exchanges in openings like the Van't Kruijs Opening and the Scandinavian Defense, proving their willingness to experiment and learn.
Fun Fact
With a tilt factor of 41 (yes, that pesky emotional chess factor we've all struggled with), LYNN's journey is a testament to perseverance and learning from each swing of fortune. They might not always win, but you can bet they’re having fun and plotting the next great checkmate.

Feedback for LYNN2358
Great job on your recent games! Here are some observations and suggestions to help you improve your chess skills:
Strengths
- Opening Play: You have a solid grasp on a variety of openings such as the Scandinavian Defense, King's Indian Attack, and Vienna Game. You're actively contesting the center and developing pieces quickly, which is excellent.
- Tactical Awareness: You successfully spotted and executed tactical shots, for example winning a knight in the Scandinavian Defense game and capitalizing on exchanges to gain material advantage.
- Endgame Technique: You managed to convert winning positions and even forced resignations on multiple occasions. Your moves to simplify or trade pieces when ahead showed good game sense.
Areas for Improvement
- Handling Pressure and Defense: Some losses featured critical moments where you were put under pressure, particularly in middle games. Working on defensive techniques and recognizing when to exchange pieces to relieve pressure could help.
- Calculation Accuracy: There were moments where more precise calculation was needed, especially in complex positions involving queens and minor pieces coordination. Practicing tactical puzzles regularly can enhance your calculation speed and accuracy.
- Time Management: A few games ended on time losses or on time pressure. Try monitoring your clock better and balancing thinking time across all phases of the game to avoid rushing in critical spots.
- Positional Understanding: Work on recognizing positional themes such as weak squares, control of open files, and pawn structure weaknesses. This will help you make plans beyond immediate tactics.
Next Steps
- Review your recent games closely, especially the losses, and identify key turning points with the help of an engine or coach.
- Continue practicing common tactical motifs such as forks, pins, and discovered attacks.
- Study classic endgames to improve your technique and confidence converting advantages.
- Experiment with a consistent opening repertoire to build familiarity and depth.
- Manage your clock better by setting mini time goals per move, avoiding major time scrambles.
Keep up the hard work, and remember that consistent practice and analysis will yield gradual but steady improvement. Looking forward to seeing your progress!
