Profile: Nitike83
Meet Nitike83, a rapid and blitz enthusiast who proves that chess can be both serious and delightfully unpredictable.
With a current rapid rating zooming close to 2000 (peak 1997 in November 2022) and blitz games flirting with a nearly 2000 rating
peak as well, Nitike83 is no stranger to the battlefield of 64 squares. Armed with a tactical flair and a respectable comeback rate near 65%, this player isn't just throwing pawns around randomly—they're plotting the grand scheme... usually before breakfast.
Originating from humble beginnings (a rapid start at 1400 back in 2020), Nitike83 rapidly accelerated through the ranks, mastering tricky openings like the
Scandinavian Defense Mieses Kotrc Main Line and the Indian Game with a perfect 100% win record in rapid matches. In blitz, they show a penchant for dynamic and sharp lines, thriving notably with the
Sicilian Defense Nyezhmetdinov Rossolimo Attack and
the trusty Dutch Defense, boasting a flawless 100% win rate in those openings. However, like all mortals, there have been missteps, such as a stint of Dutch Defense Raphael Variation where the victory escaped their grasp.
Known for an average of nearly 58 moves per victorious game, Nitike83 is in it for the long haul, carefully plotting strategies and not rushing to a quick mate… or quick resignation, since early resignations are quite rare here (only about 3.5%).
When it comes to performance by color, Nitike83 is slightly more dangerous with the black pieces (almost 60% win rate) than white (around 56%). So if you dare face their black setup, prepare for some real fireworks.
Off the board, Nitike83's eagerness to learn and improve is evident from the wide variety of openings encountered and studied. Also, with a longest winning streak of 10 games and a current run of 3 wins, they're clearly in good form—watch for the thunderous moves around prime time, especially at 19:00 UTC, their best time of day to play.
Now, a chess player with a tilt factor of 4 manages to keep chill even after a tough game—because what's better than winning? Winning with style!
