Player Profile: max01142
max01142 is a fearless rapid-fire tactician with a flair for the dramatic — winning some battles by resignation, losing others after heroic stands. Their journey on the 64 squares is a rollercoaster of gallant attacks, surprising defenses, and occasionally, the humble early surrender (a modest 11.8% early resignation rate, because sometimes even chess heroes know when to call it).
Rating & Style
At their peak, max01142 hit a rapid rating high of 472 in early 2023— not world champion material yet, but enough to cause serious headaches! Their blitz and bullet ratings hover around the 220 and 208 mark respectively, proving they can sprint as well as they can marathon. A crunchy average game length of around 43 moves in wins shows a penchant for well-fought battles and gritty endgames. Speaking of which, they finish about a third of their games in the endgame zone, revealing patience sprinkled with tactical sharpness (they maintain a quirky 56.7% comeback rate, ready to strike back after adversity).
Opening Choices & Battle Favorites
This player loves the classic charm of the Kings Pawn Opening family but also dabbles in the exotic with an impressive 85.7% win rate in the Scandinavian Defense Mieses Kotrc Variation—a move that even some seasoned players don’t see coming. The trusty Italian Game and the Van't Kruijs Opening add flair to the repertoire. In blitz, max01142’s one-game wonder with the Sicilian Defense Bowdler Attack is a clean sweep, winning its single battle.
Psyche & Quirks
Known for their resilience, max01142 has a tilt factor of 8 — which is to say, sometimes they get ticked off but mostly keep their cool. Their best blitz time is around 3 PM, preferably with a coffee (or energy drink) in hand. They don't mind facing higher-rated opponents — though when matched with stronger foes, it’s a tough climb, reflected by a win drop to around 13% against higher-rated players. However, against lower-rated competitors, their win rate rockets to an impressive 84%—proof that max01142 loves an underdog’s charm.
Most Memorable Recent Battles

This little gem showcased max01142’s tactical precision and excellent endgame awareness. Not all battles go their way though — losses to Lumpy909 and p3temangus show the relentless spirit of competition, as well as the bitter reality of chess where sometimes the king just says "nope."
