Profile Summary: maickelc

Once a humble pawn, maickelc has been climbing the ranks with the tenacity of a knight on a caffeine rush. Starting in 2023 with a rapid rating around 315, this chess adventurer has steadily improved, now cruising at a respectable 681 in rapid and maxing out at 745 in daily games. Don't let the numbers fool you — there’s a cunning strategist behind those clicks.

Known for a love of the English Opening King's English Variation and a surprising fondness for the Sicilian Defense Bowdler Attack (yes, that’s a thing), maickelc’s opening choices spell danger for the unprepared. Winning almost half their rapid games with these openings shows a modern mix of patience and aggression – imagine someone who sips tea while plotting checkmate.

If games were epic movies, maickelc’s would have dramatic comebacks: a 62.5% comeback rate and a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece. That’s right, losing a piece is just another plot twist. This player’s patience shines in the endgame, playing nearly 63% of games till the rook and pawn dance, averaging about 55 moves per win – so get ready for a long, exciting battle if you face them!

A quick note: maickelc hates early resignations (only 1.89% rate) and likes to see things through — a true gladiator of the 64 squares. Though the tilt factor is a modest 11, beer and tears may occasionally mix after a baffling loss.

With a current winning streak of 3 games and a longest streak of 12, this player is not just improving; they’re in it to win it. Beware, opponents: maickelc has undefeated records against several recent rivals and boasts a psychological edge over casual players, outperforming them by over 10%.

When asked about preferred hours, maickelc seems to operate best mid-afternoon to evening, rocking a peak 64% win rate at 2 PM and a dazzling 55% at 4 PM. Looks like chess skills are powered by a strong afternoon espresso!

Overall, maickelc is a resilient and improving player whose blend of stubbornness, tactical brains, and a love for classic English openings make them a formidable (and rather entertaining) opponent in online chess circles. If chess were a party, maickelc would be the guest who stays late, challenging everyone to one more game.
