Profile Summary: marly36

Meet marly36, a determined chess aficionado who dances gracefully between bullet, blitz, and rapid time controls—occasionally throwing in a daily game just to keep life spicy.

Ratings and Style

From a modest bullet rating of 113 in late 2022, marly36 soared to a peak of 393 in April 2023, showing some serious tactical flair in frantic, fast-paced games. Blitzing through 1409 wins (yes, really!) but almost as many losses (1451), this player clearly lives on the edge, embracing every win and loss like a drama-filled novel.

Rapid scores peaked impressively at 616 in November 2022, demonstrating that when given a little more breathing room, marly36 can strategize and outsmart opponents in style. And for the romantics out there, a single daily game maxed out at a cheeky 677, proving that slow and steady can sometimes win the race.

Opening Battles & Favorite Gambits

Known affectionately for a strong affection towards the Queen’s Pawn Opening Zukertort Chigorin Variation, marly36 wins over 90% of games with this line in bullet – a true weapon of choice! The trusty Pirc Defense also flutters in the repertoire with a respectable 64% win rate, showing flexibility against different opponents.

In blitz, the Pirc Defense remains a staple, while the kings pawn openings and English gambits sprinkle variety into the mix.

The Human Behind the Moves

Don’t be fooled by ebbing ratings or occasional losing streaks—this player sports a comeback rate near 61%, which means marly36 is the king/queen of bouncing back, even when the chips are down. Endgames are marly36’s playground, making up nearly half of their games; a patient tactician always looking to outwit in the final moments.

Psychologically? With a tilt factor of just 10 (low, very low), marly36 doesn’t let bad beats ruin the vibe—although the best time to catch them is around 1 AM, when chess magic seemingly happens.

Recent Adventures on the 64 Squares

Just recently, marly36 secured a victory with a sharp Italian Game (ECO C50), sneaking in a daring knight sacrifice—because why not?—against Aleksiryhanen123. In blitz and bullet, they’ve shown a knack for clever checkmates and gritty battles, even if sometimes the clock ticks a little too loud.

In a Nutshell

marly36 is that unpredictable but endearing chess warrior who embraces every gambit, joke, and blunder. With a passion that spans various time controls and a love for complex openings, this player reminds us that chess isn’t just a game, it’s an epic rollercoaster ride—sometimes exhilarating, sometimes humbling, but always worth playing.
