Profile Summary: ManuehIV
Meet ManuehIV, the chess warrior whose journey through the 64 squares reads like an epic saga filled with thrilling victories, occasional setbacks, and a hearty dose of resilience. ManuehIV's rapid rating peaked at a respectable 1362 in late 2020, and since then, they've zigzagged through the ranks like a knight hopping over pawns — proving adaptability is the name of the game.
A truly versatile player, ManuehIV isn't just about slow and steady. Their blitz peak soared to 1241 as of November 2023, and on the daily scene, they've maintained a solid steady pace with a consistent rating around 800. Even in bullet, with flash-fast decisions, they have reached a peak over 1150, so it's safe to say the clock is never their enemy—except maybe at 5 AM when the win rate dips mysteriously to zero.
Playing Style & Stats
A champion of patience, ManuehIV enjoys the grind — their average winning games last over 62 moves, showing a liking for strategic battles rather than quick knockouts. But when the heat is on, their comeback rate of nearly 82% tells us this player never throws in the towel too early. Yet, be warned: even the mightiest face tilt, and with a tilt factor of 12, they keep it mostly classy, but a streak of 12 losses once made them reconsider if chess was a contact sport.
This player plays the whites with a slightly better winning record (51%) than with the blacks (45%), proving sometimes the first move advantage is real. Their top secret opening, engaging opponents in over 2100 rapid games, is nearly as mysterious as their favorite snack during tournaments — no official confirmation on that one.
Fun Facts
- Best Time to Play: Around 1 AM. Whether the world is asleep or just too tired to focus, ManuehIV seems to channel their inner Grandmaster under the moonlight.
- Favorite Opening: The Three Knights Opening with a perfect 100% win rate in rapid games. Clearly, when given the chance to play with three nights, they don’t miss a beat.
- Longest Winning Streak: 14 games. That’s almost two weeks undefeated — probably a good time to celebrate with some cake (or another game).
- Persistence Personified: With nearly equal wins and losses across rapid and blitz formats, ManuehIV exemplifies the classical chess motto: "Win some, learn some."
Recent Highlights
Just this month, ManuehIV clinched a fascinating victory against vincejoujou by game abandonment after a tense battle filled with strategic pawn pushes and timely bishop attacks — a real nail-biter ending.

Whether grappling with aggressive Scandinavian defenses or navigating subtle English Four Knights, ManuehIV’s love for the game shines through every move, every clock tick, and every victory cheer.
