Rating Trajectory & Achievements

Starting with a humble Rapid rating around 229 in mid-2024, nyarth8 quickly turned the tides — peaking impressively at 521 in Rapid by the end of 2024, and peaking an astonishing 760 in Blitz during mid-2025! Bullet chess shows steady growth too, boasting a max rating of 405. Even in Daily chess, nyarth8 maintains a solid presence, peaking at 546.

With hundreds of games played in Blitz and Rapid formats, nyarth8 sports nearly balanced win/loss records but a spirited fighting spirit with a notable longest winning streak of 13 games. Their comeback rate of 77.35% shows they don’t give up easily — a true chess warrior.

Playing Style

Tactical awareness is nyarth8’s middle name. They tend to play long games with an average of 47 moves per win, showing a patient, endurance-based approach. Their endgame frequency is quite high at 45.73%, proving they never back down in the late phase of the battle. Expect some early resignations here and there as well (6.49%), but hey, sometimes you just gotta preserve brain cells for the next fight.

Interestingly, nyarth8’s best time to play is around 10 PM, when their win rate peaks — so if you see them online late at night, beware! Their win rate with White (49.54%) slightly edges out Black (47.38%), but either color, they bring the heat.

Opening Repertoire & Strategy

When it comes to openings, nyarth8 likes to keep opponents guessing. The mysterious “Top Secret” category dominates their games, perhaps signaling a repertoire full of surprises and offbeat lines. In Bullet games, they dabble in the Scandinavian Defense, Englund Gambit (with an impressive 58.82% win rate!), and variations of the Queen's Pawn Opening, blending solid foundations with tactical tricks.

Recent Battles and Memorable Games

Recently, nyarth8 triumphed with a swift resignation victory against Kurama_Hinata in a Chess960 game — a quick "g4" and "b4" flank opening demonstrating unexpected boldness. Not all battles end in honor though; losses to opponents like sc2the show the ongoing struggle of any true competitor. Even so, the victory by checkmate and skillful resignation wins show nyarth8’s flair for decisive endings.
