Profile of Nefuas: The Rapid Rambler of the Chessboard

Meet Nefuas, a rapid time control enthusiast who thrives in the realm where quick wit and fast moves rule. With a peak rapid rating of 743 achieved on May 12, 2025, Nefuas has established a resilient, if somewhat rollercoaster, presence in their games — a true fighter with a win-loss record that tells tales of gritty battles and fierce comebacks.

With an average rating lingering around 564 in 2025, Nefuas has played 126 rapid games, winning 48 of them. Though losses outnumber victories (74 losses), don't mistake these stats for meekness. Every loss is a stepping stone — especially when coming off a longest losing streak of 9, a sign of dogged determination (and maybe a coffee shortage). The longest winning streak of 5 shows moments of brilliance and strategic precision.

Opening Gambits & Favorite Lines

Nefuas loves making the game lively and unpredictable. The King’s Pawn Opening, King’s Knight Variation is their playground, with a balanced 50% win rate across 12 games. When feeling spicy, Nefuas dances with the Scotch Game and Petrov's Defense Steinitz Attack, boasting a respectable win rate of over 66%. But beware the dreaded Petrov’s Defense Classical Variation and Philidor Defense — opponents have been less forgiving there, proving every player has their kryptonite.

A Battle-Tested Warrior

The psychological side of Nefuas is no less dramatic. They have a tilt factor of 9, so occasional emotional chess fireworks do happen. Yet, armed with a comeback rate of nearly 46%, they’re not just surrendering easily — these losses are often preludes to epic rallies. Known for resigning early about 17.5% of the time suggests a sharp self-assessment, possibly saving energy for the next skirmish.

When to Catch Nefuas in Action

If you want to challenge or cheer them on, afternoons around 16:00 seem to be their prime playing time — win rates peak around then (70% between 16:00-17:00). Weekdays aren't off limits either, with solid performances from Monday through Thursday and a slight slump on weekends.

The Master of Dramatic Endings

When Nefuas wins, they tend to put on a show — averaging 56 moves per win versus a quicker finish in losses (34 moves on average). They enjoy a good endgame challenge, with over 32% of their games casting the final spotlight there. Checkmates are satisfying and frequent — 18 wins ended with the elegant snap of the king, while resignations reflect the tough-minded chaser of efficiency.

Favorite Game Highlight

One spectacular recent victory saw Nefuas achieve a dazzling checkmate against ALXAL11 after a tactical melee on the board, unleashing rapid advance and strategic sacrifices that would impress even seasoned grandmasters.

All in all, Nefuas is a captivating chess persona — part strategist, part emotional rollercoaster, and 100% in it for the thrill of the rapid game.
