Meet Noxx9: The Chess Connoisseur with a Dash of Humor
Since bursting onto the digital chess scene in 2020, Noxx9 has fought their way up from a humble rating of just over 1100 in daily games to an impressive 1806 by 2024. Not just a one-trick pony, this versatile player has conquered all time controls — from the frantic bullet battles, where they reached a blazing peak rating of 1972, to the more thoughtful rapid matches with an elite 2023 rating.
Known for endurance and a love for the endgame (a whopping 68.3% frequency!), Noxx9 is not the type to throw in the towel early - their early resignation rate is a modest 1.51%. They’re the comeback kid with an astonishing 78.72% comeback rate and practically unbeatable after losing a piece (win rate after losing a piece: 99.93% — talk about fighting spirit!).
Their average moves per victory hover around 63, giving opponents plenty of chances to wonder "Where did I go wrong?" while the few losses come after equally lengthy battles. Playing white slightly favors them (53.72% win rate) but don’t be fooled—when playing black, Noxx9 still wins nearly half the time.
Tactical awareness? Off the charts. Psychological resilience? Well, they have a tilt factor of 87, so watch out if things don't go their way, but it’s just part of the rollercoaster ride. Despite a few tilt moments, they keep their focus mostly solid and have amassed a win count exceeding their losses by a comfortable margin across all formats.
Noxx9’s secret? An unwavering dedication to the “Top Secret” opening that they wield with a mystifying win rate hovering around 50-60% across daily, bullet, blitz, and rapid games. One can only imagine it's a chess variant known exclusively to the grandmasters of the internet, or perhaps it’s simply “hide your plans well” strategy.
Off the board, opponents appreciate their tenacity, while fans admire their steady climb in rating and their gaming stints filled with over 18,000 bullet games alone! Even with a penchant for blitz and rapid, Noxx9 isn’t afraid of slow, steady daily games either.
Whether it’s grinding through bullet frenzies or crafting strategic masterpieces in rapid, Noxx9 is a chess enthusiast whose dedication and resilience make every game an adventure. Just don’t challenge them at 2 a.m.—their win rate spikes, and so might your frustration!
Hi Noxx9 – here’s a tailored review of your recent games
What you’re doing well
- Dynamic piece play against fianchetto setups. In your most recent win against davidprodigy you successfully opened lines with ...c5 and ...e5, then used the Nd4-f3-d3 knight manoeuvre to invade. The final combination 24...Qe3+ 25.Kh1 Nf2+! showed sharp tactical vision.
- Opening depth with 1...d5/…e6 structures. You consistently reach solid Queen’s Gambit Declined and Catalan-type middlegames, keeping pawn structure sound and pieces harmonised.
- Blitz conversion in favourable positions. Your 180-second win vs. Aminu-Musa demonstrated clean attacking technique – once you created a passed e-pawn you kept the initiative and finished with mate on h1.
Key growth areas
- Time management in Daily chess. Five of your six most recent losses were on time. Consider enabling move-reminders or reducing the number of concurrent games so each position still receives fresh calculation.
- Overextension of the queen in the opening. In the loss to Championsnightmare your early 5...Qa5 allowed Black to gain tempos with Nc6-d4-f5. Delay queen excursions until development is complete.
- Transitioning advantages into endings. Several blitz games show healthy material edges that drift when you hesitate to trade into winning endgames. Study model endgames (e.g. Lucena position, rook vs. pawn endings) and set a rule of thumb: when two pawns up, seek simplification.
- Handling cxd5 Qxd5 structures. Against the Queen’s Gambit Accepted/Austrian line you sometimes allow ...Nxd4 tactics on d4. Re-examine the typical plan (Be2, Nf3, h3, Re1) to keep the centre stable.
Action plan for the next month
| Week | Focus | How to work on it |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Clock discipline | Play three 10 + 5 rapid games a day; aim to keep >60 % of your initial time by move 20. Review with arrows where you spent >1 min. |
| 2 | Tactical endurance | 30 intermediate-level puzzles daily; tag motifs (pin, fork, deflection) to build a personal motif list. can help you pick your sharpest hours. |
| 3 | Endgame conversion | Study 15 rook-endgame positions from “100 Endgames You Must Know”. Recreate them on the board and play vs. engine until you win. |
| 4 | Opening tightening | Create a mini-repertoire file covering (a) QGD as White, (b) …e6 declined Slav as Black. Annotate one model game per line using the built-in analysis board. |
Quick reference stats
- Your Peak rapid rating: 2023 (2024-06-28)

Mini-checklist to use during play
- Is my king safe (pawn shield intact, tactical shots on g7/g2)?
- What is my opponent’s next threat? (Force yourself to verbalise it.)
- Which of my pieces is doing nothing – can it be improved or traded?
- If ahead in material, can I simplify? If behind, can I keep pieces?
- Before moving, spend 5 seconds on double-checks & zwischenzugs.
