Zechariah Josh C. Acuña: The Relentless Chess Warrior
Meet Zechariah Josh C. Acuña, a.k.a. the crafty strategist who dances elegantly across the chessboard, whether it's blitz, bullet, or rapid — and sometimes even daily, for those rare peaceful moments.
Early Moves & Rise
Starting from humble beginnings in 2023 with a rapid rating around 938, Zechariah quickly sharpened his tactical claws, soaring past 1592 by 2025 in rapid games alone. His bullet and blitz ratings tell a similar tale of relentless improvement: from just over 894 to a striking 1678 bullet peak, proving he's as deadly at lightning-fast decisions as in more thoughtful formats.
Playing Style
Endgame master? Check. With an impressive 66% frequency in reaching endgames, Zechariah thrives when the board clears and the mind sharpens. His average winning games stretch to 65 moves, showing both patience and precision.
Psychologically ironclad, he boasts a remarkable 82% comeback rate after setbacks — truly the "never say die" type. And if he loses a piece? His opponents might as well resign, since his win rate after losing material is a perfect 100%. Adrenaline-fueled beast or calm grandmaster? Why not both?
Win Records & Streaks
With over 1,172 wins in rapid and 1,470 bullet victories, Zechariah’s path is littered with toppled kings and humiliated opponents. His longest winning streak? A mighty 16 games in a row, because sometimes chess gods smile a bit too brightly.
He also seems to have an uncanny knack for beating his most recent opponents — winning 100% against the likes of eizljay, kasparovtal24, and others — so don't sleep on this rising star.
Secrets to Success
His opening? Top secret. Literally. Across rapid, bullet, blitz, and daily, his opening win rates hover around 50%, proving he's not just a one-trick pony but a master of disguise.
Fun Facts
- Typically plays his best between 10 AM and 5 PM, with a peak win rate at 4 PM hitting 57.14%.
- Least successful hours? Clearly nap time — 18:00 and 19:00 see zero wins recorded (just blame the pizza delivery).
- Favorite day? Thursday and Friday, boasting over 52% win rates, ending the workweek with checkmate flair!
