They tend to play on until the bitter end, with an average game lasting just about 60 moves, showcasing impressive resilience and patience.

Stick around the King's Pawn Opening and its variations – especially the King's Knight Variation which yields a strong win rate of nearly 60%. Other secret weapons in the opening arsenal include the Bishop's Opening (winning over 70% of the time) and the tricky Scandinavian Defense Mieses-Kotrc Variation that seems to fluster opponents almost 62% of the time.

Defensive lines like the Caro-Kann Defense and the Philidor Defense sometimes cause a bit of a 50/50 split, but micky976 is never afraid to test these waters either.
