Profile Summary: NgocDepGaiSo1

NgocDepGaiSo1 is not your everyday chess player — this is someone who’s battled through rating rollercoasters and emerged with stories (and pawns) to tell. With a peak rapid rating of 565 reached in early 2025, our intrepid tactician has danced with victory and defeat in almost equal measure, holding a record of 14 wins, 16 losses, and 3 draws in rapid games.

Despite some ups and downs — including a notorious 5-game losing streak that could humble even the boldest chess warriors — NgocDepGaiSo1 displays a remarkable comeback rate of 85.71%. Losing a piece? No problem! Nearly 42% of the time, this player flips the script and snags a win anyway. A true fighter!

Playing Style

  • Prefers a solid 53 moves on average to clinch a win, savoring the long tactical fights.
  • Not shy about early resignations — only 6.25% of games end that way, so don't expect quitting at the first blunder.
  • Ends games with a flourish roughly 42% of the time, showing a liking for the drama of endgames.
  • White pieces bring a sweet 47.06% win chance, while black requires a bit more hustle with 37.5%.

Favorite Openings

NgocDepGaiSo1 has some openings they return to like a warm blanket:

  • Van 't Kruijs Opening: Their playground of choice with a sharp 71% win rate over 7 games. Clearly, this opening is "Ngoc’s jam."
  • Pirc Defense: A more cautious battleground with a balanced 50% win rate.
  • Queens Pawn & Bird’s Opening: The dark horse openings where every game apparently ends in victory.
  • A few rocky rides with Mieses, Caro Kann, and Philidor defenses where the losses piled up—proof that everyone has a Kryptonite.

Psychological Profile & Fun Facts

Best time to challenge NgocDepGaiSo1? Around 4 AM, when the mind is sharpest and the reflexes quickest. Beware — their “tilt factor” is surprisingly low at 5, indicating this player keeps a cool head under pressure, even if a few pieces go missing!

NgocDepGaiSo1 shows a distinctive pattern of winning big against lower-rated opponents (an amazing 86.67% win rate) but struggles fiercely against higher-rated foes, losing over 88% of those encounters. Still, there’s honor in the fight.

Recent Highlights

One recent brilliant match ended with NgocDepGaiSo1 winning on time against djfrag in a fiercely contested Queen’s Pawn Opening game. A thrilling victory, chased to the final move — total game count? 62 moves of pure chess drama!

On the flip side, a tough loss came at the hands of samarthxchessgod, where resignation was the humble bow after a complex battle in the Modern Defense. Every loss is a step on the path to mastery, after all.

The Verdict?

NgocDepGaiSo1 is a spirited, gritty rapid chess player with a flair for long games and a knack for bouncing back. They may not always be at the top of the leaderboard, but they bring heart, humor, and a surprising amount of tactical wizardry to every match. Opponents beware — especially at dawn!
