With a peak rapid rating of 1010 achieved in March 2025, Theo has shown flashes of brilliance amid the battlefield of pawns and knights. Though the losses sometimes stack up faster than clean dishes, Theo’s comeback rate of 61.67% proves resilience is the name of the game.
Style & Strategy
Theo prefers rapid chess, where the clock ticks like a suspense thriller, averaging about 39 moves per win and 52 moves per loss—because who doesn’t enjoy a good dramatic marathon? Not one to resign early, with an early resignation rate of only 3.57%, Theo battles on, hoping for that miraculous turnaround. When it comes to openings, the Bishops Opening Berlin Defense is Theo’s sweet spot with a useful 62.5% win rate, though the infamous King's Pawn King's Knight Variation is more like a tough staircase—with only a 20% win rate after 10 attempts.
Recent Adventures on the Board
Theo’s latest victory came in rapid fashion, checkmating the opponent in just six moves using the Bishops Opening Boi Variation. It appears the queen and bishop make a deadly duo in these matches, as witnessed in the thrilling .
