Marlon Quevedo: The Chessboard Biologist
Meet Marlon Quevedo, or as he often goes by online, MarlonQhdezzz: a rapid chess player whose games are a fascinating blend of strategic symbiosis and evolutionary gambits. With a peak rapid rating of 1430 in 2025, Marlon's chess engine hums at an average rating of about 1085, highlighting both his growth potential and the occasional tactical mutation on the board.
Marlon’s playing style is a curious specimen in the wild world of chess. With a 40% win rate with white and a more modest 29.27% win rate playing black, he tends to navigate through lengthy games — averaging over 61 moves per win — proving he’s more of a marathon bacterium than a quick-fire amoeba. Perhaps his strongest gene is his comeback rate of nearly 79% and a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece, showcasing his uncanny ability to adapt and survive, much like a chessboard chameleon cleverly shifting its strategy under pressure.
A fan of the Queens Pawn Opening and the Sicilian Defense, Marlon’s most successful opening is the Old Sicilian Variation where he boasts a jaw-dropping 75% win rate. His lineage of opponents is diverse, with a mixed gang of rivals like aksh2204 and jspenc72, some yielding no victories, while others—like srsarfare and filipp-90—fall prey in 100% of their encounters.
Despite a tendency for early resignations in about 10% of games (maybe a little impatience—a common trait in rapid players!), Marlon's endgame appearances occur more than half the time. He's got a tilt factor of 10, meaning even when the emotional amoeba inside him gets ruffled, his competitive instincts usually get the better of the mood swings.
When asked about his preferred time to play, Marlon’s chess clock ticks fastest in the golden hours between 0:00 and 3:00 AM with an impeccable 100% win rate at midnight and a consistent 50% at odd hours like 23:00 and 3:00. Clearly, his neural networks work best while the rest of the world is dreaming—maybe it’s during these hours that Marlon’s mind truly replicates its finest strategies.
With a quirky blend of biological resilience and humble ambitions, Marlon Quevedo continues to expand his opening repertoire and sharpen his tactical claws. Whether he’s mutating his approach or folding under pressure, one thing’s clear: in the ecosystem of rapid chess, Marlon is a unique organism worth watching.
