Playing Style & Strengths

Despite enjoying an average of 55 moves per win (apparently they like the long haul), nicotab4 manages to stay composed during tricky moments: after losing a piece, there's a cool 63.64% chance they still turn the tables.
Battle Stats
With a rapid record of 63 wins against 35 losses and only a couple of draws, and a bullet record of undefeated 1-0 (don’t ask about the sample size), nicotab4's games are a rollercoaster of excitement. Their longest winning streak peaked at 7 games — a nice winning streak, but chess is all about ups and downs, right? The current losing streak of 5 might sting, but it only fuels the comeback spirit!
Memorable Moments
Not all battles end quietly for nicotab4. The player’s recent wins often end with spectacular checkmates that would make even seasoned grandmasters sit up in admiration—take a look at their crushing finish using the Indian Game. The last victory? A beautiful series of moves culminating in Ra8# that probably had spectators’ jaws on the floor.
Psychological Edge and Timing
Timing is everything. For nicotab4, the magic hour is 15:00 — the prime time to turn chaos into triumphs. Beware opponents who challenge them in the evening hours where the win rate sadly dips (0% at 18:00 – maybe a coffee break?). They also have a slight "tilt factor" of 5, which means losing five games in a row can test their zen... yet bounce back they do.
Notable Rivalries
Facing eliottabaric 26 times and boasting a solid 77% win rate there, nicotab4 clearly has a nemesis-turned-victory story. Meanwhile, some foes like osho666 have proven tougher nuts to crack (0% win rate). Classic chess drama!
