Adam Brown (aka MrFolgers420)

Adam Brown is a chess player whose journey resembles an epic rollercoaster ride — full of daring attacks, nail-biting comebacks, and the occasional majestic blunder. Known to the chess world as MrFolgers420, Adam’s rapid rating has seen a thrilling ascent from a humble 183 in late 2020 to a peak of 596 by mid-2025. If Elo points were coffee beans, Adam would be a top barista brewing a double shot of wins and losses every day!

Playing Style & Personality

Adam favors a bold and dynamic approach, characterized by an early resignation rate of just 7.63%, proving he fights till the bitter end more often than not. His games average nearly 55 moves for wins, showing patience and endurance are his secret weapons. A master of psychological warfare, Adam's comeback rate stands at a striking 75%, and he doesn’t just keep playing when down a piece — he wins 44% of those scrappy battles. Like a chess ninja, he capitalizes on opportunities while embracing the chaos of the board.

Favorite Openings

Adam clearly has his favorite ways to start the party. He plays a variety of King’s Pawn Openings with nearly a 46% win rate overall, but really shines in the King’s Pawn Opening Kings Knight Variation, boasting an impressive 62% win rate over 55 games. The Four Knights Game, especially with the Italian Variation, is another favorite — and with a solid 68% winning rate in the broader Four Knights game, it’s clear Adam likes a classical dance with an aggressive twist.

Notable Records & Stats

  • Rapid Rating Peak: 596 (June 2025)

Recent Battles

Adam recently secured a crafty victory over sujeethan by resignation, showcasing his tactical depth in a Queen’s Pawn Opening battle. But it’s not always smooth sailing: his recent losses against opponents like mythyl03 and wizardrules remind us that chess, like life, is full of ups and downs.

A Word of Advice

If you ever face Adam on the board, expect a rollercoaster ride of strategic twists, surprises, and a stubborn refusal to fold early — because MrFolgers420 never lets the coffee (or the game) go cold!
