Meet maxflowmincut, a chess enthusiast whose handle sounds like a network algorithm but whose playstyle is all about cutting down opponents' hopes!

Rating & Performance

As of 2025, maxflowmincut boasts an impressive Blitz rating hovering around 2288 and a Bullet rating near 2292. This player is no stranger to the fast-paced adrenaline of quick games, with over 2,300 Blitz and 1,400 Bullet games under their belt, showing an average win rate just shy of 52% in both formats.

Playing Style

With an early resignation rate of just 0.5%, maxflowmincut and their opponents love to duke it out till the very end — and with an average of around 84 moves per game (on wins and losses alike), these matches are marathons, not sprints. The player shows a strong endgame presence, with an endgame appearance rate of 85.85%, suggesting deep strategic foresight and stamina.

They have a greater success rate when playing White (55.73%) versus a respectable 48.46% as Black. But whether striking first or responding, they maintain a remarkable 100% win rate after losing a piece and an incredible 93.21% comeback rate. Basically, maxflowmincut isn't just resilient – they're downright relentless.

Streaks & Opponents

Maxflowmincut has enjoyed a longest winning streak of 11 games. Although currently not on a streak, don’t count them out. Their opponent stats read like a veritable who’s who of online chess aliases — pawnbreaking, get_off_my_case, and titpro to name a few. Notably, they have a lovingly ruthless 81.82% win rate against titpro, proving they’re the type to break hearts and pawns alike.

Psychological & Time Traits

With a tilt factor of 11, maxflowmincut occasionally lets frustration sneak in, but their psychological resilience shines through with a rated vs casual win difference of 52.09%. They prefer gaming in the evening hours — their highest win percentages spike around 12 PM, 8 AM, and 13 PM (if only someone could tell what timezone!). Tuesdays and Mondays are prime battle days, with win rates exceeding 53% on those weekdays.

Fun Fact

Despite the name hinting at complex algorithms and graph theory, maxflowmincut’s chess strategy seems more like a gritty underdog story — slow, steady, and unpredictably devastating. Expect long games, dramatic turnarounds, and the occasional unexpected sacrifice.

In summary: A tactical beast with the patience of a grandmaster and the stubborn persistence of a cat refusing to come down from the chessboard tree.
