Biography of Chess Player M2c_13
Meet M2c_13, a rapid-fire tactician and a blitz enthusiast whose style screams creativity and a hint of unpredictability. Though their peak rapid rating of 580 might not have grandmasters trembling, it’s clear this player loves a good fight and thrives on the thrill of the tactical battlefield. With a blitz peak rating of 435, they can surprise opponents with sharp moves faster than you can say "checkmate".
M2c_13 favors the unconventional, showing a particular fondness for the Bird's Opening, boasting an impressive 80% win rate in rapid games. Not to be outdone, the Nimzowitsch Defense and the Sicilian Defense are also favorite battlegrounds with solid success. Clearly, M2c_13 dances to their own opening repertoire.
Known for lengthy, dramatic battles, their games average over 70 moves to victory and even longer—over 80 moves—when vanquished, showing a dogged refusal to quit early. Opponents might note that M2c_13 sometimes calls it quits early, but only about 8% of the time—respectable for a player who invests so much into endgames, which appear in over three quarters of their matches.

When to catch M2c_13 at their absolute best? Apparently around 8 PM, where their play shines, boasting a 100% win rate during that hour (take that, circadian rhythms!). Their mood is steady with a very low tilt factor of 2, so don’t expect angry keyboard smashing—just cool tactical calculi.

Hi M2c_13! 🎯 Overall impression
You play lively, fighting chess and already hit a 580 (2025-04-22) that many beginners would love to reach. Your games show creativity and tactical awareness—especially when you launch pawn storms with f4, g4 and flank pushes. Below are some observations to help you convert that creativity into consistent wins.
What you are already doing well
- Initiative-seeking openings – Bird’s (1 f4) and the Grob (1 g4) often catch opponents off guard in the 200–400 rating range, letting you grab space and open attacking lines.
- Tactical alertness – The win against
matheoamicropaf(June 3) shows you spotting forks, counter-checks and mating nets in messy positions. - Endgame grit – Several victories were ground out in pawn endings where you kept pushing connected passers until promotion—nice perseverance!
Key themes to improve
-
King safety before attacking
• Loss vsThe-Punisherroarr: after 15…Ba6+ your king had wandered e1–f1–g1–g2 with no pawn shield.
• Common pattern: earlyRg1/Rg3&Bh3moves leave e1/e8 kings stuck in the centre.
Action: Until ~800 rating, follow the basic checklist: Develop pieces, castle, connect rooks before starting a pawn storm. -
Over-pushing flank pawns
Your first five moves are often pawns only (f-, g-, h- and a-pawns). When they get blockaded you’re a tempo down in development.
• Example PGN fragment:1.g4 Nf6 2.Nf3 … 4.h4left you behind in piece activity and centre control.
Action: Try one session playing only classical openings (Italian, Scotch, Queen’s Gambit). Feel how fast pieces flow when you fight for the centre instead of the wings. -
Blind-spot: loose pieces & long diagonals
• In multiple games you lost a bishop to …Qxh3+or …Bxh2+because the a7–g1 / a2–g8 diagonals were left undefended.
Action: Each move, ask the “LPDO” question (Loose Pieces Drop Off). Discipline yourself to spend 2 seconds scanning every long diagonal after you push a pawn. -
Endgame technique vs stronger defence
The abandoned game vseliottbg25reached an easily drawable K+R ending but drifted into zugzwang.
Action: Drill the “rook-and-king vs rook” and basic pawn endings on a tactics trainer five minutes daily.
Opening tweaks (quick wins)
| You play | Common reply | Safer alternative |
|---|---|---|
| 1 g4?! | …e5 ! hitting g4 | 1 e4 or 1 d4 – build centre first |
| Bird’s 1 f4 | …e5 (From Gambit) | Study 2 e3 & 3 b3 setups to keep king side solid |
Mini study plan (four weeks)
📅 Week 1-2: 20 tactics a day; annotate your own losses focusing on “why was my king unsafe?”
📅 Week 3: Play ten games starting with 1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bc4 (Italian). Write down the first ten moves from memory afterwards.
📅 Week 4: Endgame boot-camp: pawn breakthroughs & basic rook checks. Finish with two slow games applying the new endgame ideas.
