From Novice to Nightmare

Novice Noah is a chess paradox. The handle says novice, but the board says otherwise. Since surfacing online in 2020, Noah has played more than 4,400 rated games, with a particular love for Blitz and a bullet rating that once touched 2700. This is not a beginner; this is a volume shooter who treats every clock as a challenge.

Noah's first recorded Blitz games began near 941 in July 2020 and ended the year at 1748. By 2023 the rating had jumped past 2400, and in May 2025 Noah hit a peak Blitz rating of 2608 (2025-05-18). The climb shows up nicely in the chart below.

A Repertoire of Beautiful Weirdness

Noah does not live in the main lines. With White, the King's Indian Attack is a favorite, usually starting with 1.Nf3, g3, and Bg2. A typical setup looks like this:

With Black, Noah is comfortable in the Czech Defense, the Pirc Defense, and a collection of offbeat king pawn replies. The most surprising companion is the Hungarian Opening: Wiedenhagen-Beta Gambit, played more than 460 times in bullet alone. Noah also keeps the Amar Gambit in the back pocket, because why play a normal move when a strange one is available?

Rivalries and Grit

Noah has built a small online community through repeated battles. The most played opponent is allexo, with 40 meetings and 26 Noah wins. korean1988 has faced Noah 30 times, while x-8293604420 has been a particular thorn, winning 17 of 21 games. None of that stops Noah. The longest winning streak is 16 games, and the comeback rate is 86.64%, meaning a lost position is rarely a lost cause.

Playing Style and Quirks

  • Early resignation rate: just 1.56%. Noah fights.
  • Average decisive game length: around 80 moves, so bring patience.
  • First capture usually arrives around move 10, showing a calm buildup.
  • White win rate: 46.79%; Black win rate: 42.56%.
  • Best time of day: noon, according to the stats.
  • Tilt factor: 10. Comeback rate: also elite. Pick your poison.

Noah's preferred time control is Blitz, and the sheer number of Blitz battles shows it. The style is not always perfect, but it is relentless. The username may still say novice, but the results say something else entirely.
