Profile Summary: maputobun

Meet maputobun, a chess aficionado whose journey on the 64 squares is as dynamic and unpredictable as a rollercoaster ride — with fewer screams and more strategic checkmates.

Rise Through the Ranks

Starting in late 2023 with a modest Rapid rating of just 925, maputobun didn't waste time warming up. Within a year and a few months, they surged to a peak Rapid rating of 2288 in April 2025 — an inspiring climb akin to watching a pawn evolve into a queen.

Style and Strategy

Known for a patient approach, maputobun averages nearly 70 moves per win and even more per loss, showing a deep love for endgames, which feature in their games with impressive 77% frequency. Their style is marked by resilience: a remarkable 76% comeback rate after setbacks and a low tilt factor of just 8, proving that they keep their cool even when the pressure is on.

Win-Loss Record and Openness

With a Rapid record boasting over 400 wins, this player favors what they like to keep secret — their opening lines remain classified as "Top Secret," a cheeky hint that competitors will need to guess their next move before the game even starts. Their winning percentage in Rapid sits just shy of 49%, a tough figure given their fierce competition.

Battle-Tested Across Time Controls

maputobun’s prowess isn't limited to slow-and-steady; they’ve dabbled successfully in Blitz and Bullet formats, scoring peak ratings of 2085 and 1837 respectively. Even in the rapid-fire seconds ticking away during Bullet games, maputobun maintains a respectable win rate, proving quick thinking is part of their arsenal.

Favorite Time to Conquer

Turns out, 17:00 hours is prime time for maputobun, with a 100% win rate at this hour — maybe that's when the coffee kicks in, or when the neighborhood squirrels stop distracting them from their calculations.

Notable Games

On April 11, 2025, maputobun dazzled with a textbook victory in a Caro-Kann Defense: Gurgenidze System matchup, executing a graceful maneuver culminating in a resignation from their opponent. Just the day before, they outwitted SeanWinshand in a Philidor Defense battle, sealing the game after nearly an hour of intense play.

Opponents Beware

With an amusing and somewhat alarming 100% win rate against a surprising number of opponents — including some with names as formidable as a dragon ("amory777777") — maputobun’s consistency is no joke. Though they’ve suffered some recent setbacks, losses are just another prelude to their next glorious comeback.

Fun Fact

Longest winning streak? 11 games straight. Longest losing streak? A humble 8 games. Clearly, maputobun is the type who shakes off defeats like a knight dusting off their cloak and rides off to the next battle with renewed vigor.

All this while keeping an early resignation rate under 3% — because quitting early just isn’t in their DNA.
