Chess Biography of neverreginald
neverreginald is a blitz-first battler with a taste for chaos and charm. With well over a thousand blitz games under the belt, this player thrives on speed, surprise, and the occasional royal stroll with 2.Kf2. Expect creativity over caution, instincts over engine lines, and a sense of humor sturdy enough to survive the occasional 11-game skid—and celebrate the 8-game heater right after.
Blitz is home base, both by volume and by vibe. The journey has had dramatic arcs and comebacks, but most of all: endless practice. Here’s a quick glimpse of that grind:
Playing Style and Opening Repertoire
neverreginald’s repertoire is delightfully unorthodox. Expect the mischievous Barnes Opening: Walkerling and the swashbuckling Elephant Gambit to show up early and often, with guest appearances from the tricksy Amar Gambit and the surprisingly successful Amazon Attack. When the position calls for classical sanity, you’ll still see sturdy choices like the Philidor Defense and the dogged Scandinavian Defense.
- Quick facts: average win in blitz lands around 36 moves; losses hover near 38—this is hand-to-hand chess, rarely a snoozy endgame (endgame frequency ~24%).
- Best day to play: Thursday; best hour: 10:00 with a hot win rate. Coffee helps. A lot.
- Favorite chaos: Amazon Attack performs particularly well; Barnes brings steady wins; even the French behaves nicely when called upon.
- Mindset: low early-resignation rate and a healthy Tilt Factor—expect fearless rematches rather than quiet retreats.
- Head says Rapid, heart says Blitz: the strength-adjusted numbers nod to Rapid—but the blitz board is where the stories happen.
