Profile: Neruox

Neruox is the living embodiment of the phrase "chess is a marathon, not a sprint" — mostly because the rating history reads like a rollercoaster designed by a caffeine-fueled grandmaster.

Rating Highlights

  • Peak Rapid Rating: 1362 (September 2020) – A shining star moment that set expectations high… very high.
  • Peak Blitz Rating: 1366 (April 2023) – Fast and furious, Neruox strikes like lightning (sometimes equally fast at losing).
  • Peak Daily Rating: 1509 (December 2020) – The peak calm, showing that with a little time to think, Neruox can totally outclass opponents.
  • Peak Bullet Rating: 1017 (November 2020) – Bullet games might be a bit wild, but hey, everyone loves a bit of chaos!

Playing Style & Personality

With an endgame frequency of almost 64%, Neruox clearly likes the tail end of the battle where every pawn move matters. Despite a modest win rate hovering around 40% with both White and Black, the player shows notable resilience, boasting a comeback rate of over 64% – yes, Neruox can turn a grim outlook into hopeful possibilities quicker than you can say "check!"

However, watch out for streaks! Neruox once hit a longest winning streak of 6 games, proving capable of domination, but also suffered a tough longest losing streak of 8 — apparently even chess has its mood swings. The tilt factor is a manageable 8, suggesting a pinch of frustration but nothing that a fresh cup of coffee can't cure.

Favorite Openings

When it comes to openings, Neruox prefers sticking to classics peppered with personal flair:

  • King’s Pawn Opening Leonardis Variation: Played 40 times with a slightly above 50% win rate — not bad for such a tricky line!
  • Queen’s Pawn Opening: Winning over 53% of the time in 13 games — Neruox knows how to handle the d4-based drama.
  • Philidor Defense: Played 11 times with a near even but slightly sneaky success rate (45.45%).
  • Undefined openings: Neruox’s wild card with a surprising 71% win rate, proving even mystery can pay off.

Recent Battles

In the latest encounters, Neruox has shown both the sting of defeat and the thrill of victory:

  • Most Recent Win: A tough game against clempol, clinched by resignation in a Philidor Defense Nimzowitsch Variation – a textbook win demonstrating patience and pressure.
  • Most Recent Loss: A harrowing time-flag defeat to Patryk-R using the King’s Pawn Opening Leonardis Variation — a reminder that even the best have off days (or off clocks).

Fun Facts & Quirks

Neruox's best time of day to play is apparently 11:00 AM, which is suspiciously around the time when coffee kicks in – coincidence? Probably not. Interestingly, Neruox has a higher win percentage against lower-rated opponents (68%), but struggles mightily uphill (only winning 13.5% against better-rated foes). So, a word to challengers: this player prefers a fair fight, but surprises can always happen!

Oh, and the average game length is quite the saga: wins come after about 56 moves, losses linger with nearly 65 moves, so Neruox definitely enjoys a drawn-out battle rather than a quick smash and grab. It's chess as theater, not just sport.

Overall

Neruox is a dedicated player who navigates the chessboard with determination, an intriguing blend of classic openings, and a knack for late-game drama. Expect battles filled with ups and downs, tactical twists, and spirited comebacks. Whether it’s crushing daily games or enduring the rapid rating rollercoaster, Neruox keeps the chess world guessing — because sometimes, the game isn’t just about winning, but making it entertaining along the way!

Keep an eye on this one; every loss only fuels the next fiery win.
