Meet mayuresh_k, a rapid chess enthusiast whose journey has been a rollercoaster ride through openings, time scrambles, and unexpected checkmates! With a peak rapid rating of 800 achieved back in August 2024, mayuresh_k has since experienced the bittersweet taste of both victory and defeat in almost equal measure.

Although wins and losses nearly balance out (54 wins to 67 losses, plus 18 draws), this player is never shy about battling it out on the board — whether it’s defending with the French Defense (with an impressive 85.7% win rate, the shining jewel in their repertoire) or bravely diving into the Van 't Kruijs Opening, known for its tactical twists and turns (41.5% win rate – room to grow!).

Don’t let the modest peak rating fool you: mayuresh_k boasts an impressive comeback rate of 77.78%, showing a resilience that stubborn pawns would envy. When losing a piece, this player still fights back fiercely, winning 35% of such battles – a true chess warrior who hates giving up early, reflected in a low early resignation rate (~6%).

The average game for mayuresh_k is a prolonged marathon: their wins last about 55 moves, while losses tend to drag on even further, averaging over 72 moves. Clearly, patience is a virtue – or maybe they're just indecisive with all those queens and knights dancing around!

Playing style? Oh yes, they've got one:

  • Endgame specialist: Over 68% of games reach endgame phases, where subtlety and nerves prevail.
  • Likes the afternoons: Best performance from around 3 PM, when coffee kicks in and focus sharpens.
  • Black or white? Both competitive: 40% win rate with White and almost 38% with Black – the color doesn’t scare them.

Opponents beware! While some like egg012345678 and mikealfaromeo have managed to snag wins, others such as efi-2000 and saipanchess have fallen prey to the relentless clock pressure and tactical finesse of mayuresh_k. Time trouble? Not a worry, as many victories have come via timed wins, proving that quick thinking + quick fingers = success.

And speaking of quick fingers, here’s a taste of recent glory: in a thrilling encounter against efi-2000, mayuresh_k demonstrated spectacular technique and caused the opponent to topple on time. Not all days are perfect, but when the stars align, this player’s Monday-to-Saturday win rates hover between 25% and 52%, peaking midweek—Wednesday is their “checkmate day.”

To sum up, mayuresh_k is a resilient rapid player: part strategist, part gladiator, part coffee-fueled tactician, and entirely dedicated to the passion of chess. Whether opening with the tricky French Defense or braving the wilds of the Van 't Kruijs, this player makes every game an adventure worth watching.

Long may the kings and queens fall—and may mayuresh_k’s rating climb back up!
