Player Profile: neauwlane

Meet neauwlane — a rapidly rising chess enthusiast whose blitz battles and rapid duels are as unpredictable as a squirrel on espresso.
Though still warming up with a modest blitz peak rating of 288 as of May 2025, neauwlane’s rapid games tell a different story: soaring to an impressive 575 just last October! Clearly, the rapid time control suits this player’s style like a perfectly fitted crown on a king.

Playing Style: neauwlane is not one to prolong suffering unnecessarily — with an early resignation rate of just 6.7%, this player knows when to fight and when to fold. The average game length hovers around the 45 to 55 moves mark, indicating patience and a knack for endgames, which show up in half of their battles. Interestingly, black pieces seem luckier here with a black win rate pushing 55%, while white games could use just a touch more fairy dust at 37.5%.

Strengths & Quirks: Their comeback rate (56%) and ability to claw back after losing a piece (36%) hint at a fighting spirit — no surrender, no regrets! But beware: a tilt factor of 3 suggests the occasional “whoops” moment when the pressure mounts. Best time to challenge neauwlane is at 4 PM — that’s when the stars (and rooks) align.

Favorite Openings

• Rapid: Prefers the King’s Pawn Opening – King’s Knight Variation with an undefeated 100% win rate and the Petrovs Defense Steinitz Attack, another shiny 100% success story.
• Blitz: Shows love for the Reti Opening, also clocking a perfect win.

However, experimental forays into the Pirc or Scandinavian Defenses in blitz have been less fortunate — those openings have yet to yield a win, but hey, every master was once a disaster!

Record & Rivalries

With an overall rapid win-loss record nearly balanced at 15-13 and a blitz record still fledgling at 1-2, neauwlane is tough but fallible. They have encountered the opponent hmmpassepard seven times, achieving a respectable 43% win rate — a rival worthy of many future duels! Meanwhile, opponents like w1tchb14de have tasted the sting of defeat at neauwlane’s hands.

Recent Highlights

In a spectacular display of persistence, neauwlane’s most recent win came against w1tchb14de in blitz, snagging a victory on time while executing a sharp and tactical Reti Opening maneuver.
But not all battles go its way; recent losses to crpt08 and other stalwarts remind us even the best stumble. It’s all part of the chess warrior’s journey!

A Glimpse into the Future

With a longest winning streak of 7 games under the belt, and a predilection for steady perseverance, neauwlane is poised for growth in blitz and rapid arenas. Expect evolving strategies, more tactical fireworks, and perhaps, in due time, a climb toward the 600+ rating echelons.

For those willing, challenging neauwlane promises intriguing battles filled with surprising comebacks and the occasional bold gambit. Now go forth and chessify!
