In the vast battlefield of 64 squares, few players embody the spirit of gritty determination quite like N-T-sika. Starting from a rapid rating of 902 in May 2023, this player’s journey resembles a roller coaster designed by a chess madman—forging resilience through ups, downs, and sideways moves.
Rating Chronicles & Playing Style
While not quite shaking the world elite, N-T-sika currently carries respectable rapid ratings in the mid-700s, peaking at 789 earlier in 2025. Their daily chess exploits hint at potential with a top daily rating soaring just above 1100, showcasing the ability to outmaneuver opponents in longer, strategic battles.

Their average winning game is a healthy 49 moves, indicating a player who loves to grind out victories with patience and clever tactics.
The Arsenal of Openings
Strategically adventurous, N-T-sika favors some less orthodox paths:
- The Scandinavian Defense is a favorite battleground, with a calm 50% win rate over 50+ games—proving they can parry the queen’s pawn hurrah with aplomb.
- The Englund Gambit, known for its surprise value, has yielded a sneaky 60% success rate—because who doesn’t enjoy a gambit that keeps the opponent squirming?
- Other variations like the Queens Pawn Chigorin and Mieses-Kotrc lines also form pillars of the repertoire.
Recent Battles & Thrilling Victories
