With a taste for mystery, Near_NR has tried the "Top Secret" opening extensively in Blitz and Bullet with almost a 50% win rate — a sneaky name that no one can quite predict. Other favored chess quirks include a flawless record with the French Defense Knight Variation Two Knights Variation and reliable performances in the Sicilian Defense.

Winning Patterns and Rivalries

On their best days, Near_NR wins half their games on Mondays and even more impressively, a cool 56% on Sundays — ideal for Sunday chess brunches, perhaps! They’re most dangerous at 6 AM and 7 AM, when their win rates soar above 65%, so morning birds beware.

Recent Highlights & Lowlights
