Profile Summary: mxlmn

Meet mxlmn, a spirited rapid chess player navigating the thrilling rollercoaster that is the 500-1000 rating zone. With a peak rating of 1044 achieved in April 2025, this player epitomizes the relentless spirit of a chess gladiator who’s seen victories and defeats in almost equal measure—and isn’t afraid to keep coming back for more.

Starting out in late 2024 with a modest rating of 800, mxlmn quickly ventured into the 1000+ territory, showing flashes of brilliance especially in the King’s Pawn Opening, King’s Knight Variation and the Four Knights Game Italian Variation, boasting win rates up to 66.67% and 50% respectively. The Bishop's Opening and Three Knights Opening have also been favorite battlegrounds where mxlmn flexes an 80% win rate—because who doesn’t love an unexpected tactical twist with those bishops and knights?

Despite a challenging win/loss record (96 wins vs. 130 losses), perseverance is the name of the game. Mxlmn's longest losing streak stretched to 15, but the comeback rate is a hopeful 80.21%, proving that giving up is not in their vocabulary. In fact, after losing a piece, mxlmn still manages to snag a win nearly 38% of the time, showcasing some serious tactical resilience.

When it comes to timing, mxlmn is a night owl: 22:00 hrs marks their prime time, when the stars (and hopefully pawns!) align for their sharpest gameplay. Notably, games played on Fridays carry the highest win rate, at a striking 64.29%. Perhaps it’s the pre-weekend adrenaline or a lucky charm secret handshake with the chessboard.

Style-wise, mxlmn tends to engage in long battles—averaging nearly 59 moves per win and 62 moves per loss—meaning you’ll rarely spot a quick surrender here. Early resignations occur in just about 3% of games, hinting that mxlmn enjoys fighting battles to the last move, and maybe a few more just for good measure.

Victories are often sealed either by resignation (45 wins) or the classic checkmate (43 wins), but timeouts also spice things up (they’ve won 8 on clock pressure!). This suggests mxlmn might sometimes rely on blitzing opponents into submission—or possibly just loves to keep things suspenseful.

The opponent list is a colorful mix, but mxlmn has a perfect record against players like sam4walker and sakibali123, achieving a 100% win rate. On the other hand, some rivals have been thorny, and the learning curve continues.
