Rating Rollercoaster

Bullet and rapid ratings also tell tales of relentless fighting spirit, with rapid peak rating hitting an impressive 970.
Opening Gambits and Quirks
Known for a strong love-hate relationship with the Scandinavian Defense, MalloryGL sports a solid 70% win rate in blitz games employing it—clearly a signature opening to keep foes on edge. Other favorites include the King’s Pawn Opening and the ever-tempting Latvian Gambit Accepted, which showcases a bold, tactical approach.
However, beware! MalloryGL's flirtation with gambits like the Danish Gambit sometimes results in more losses than wins, a poetic dance of risk and reward.
