Chess Player Profile: paregorics

Meet paregorics, a seasoned chess warrior whose rating graph looks like the rollercoaster at Chesslandia! With a peak Bullet rating of 2287 achieved in January 2022, this player balances speed and strategy with nearly 15,000 Bullet games under their belt. Whether racing through Bullet games or navigating the more deliberate pace of Daily chess, paregorics leaves a trail of eager (and sometimes bewildered) opponents.

Chess Style & Strengths

  • An early resignation rate under 1% shows incredible fighting spirit – "Never give up, unless you're losing terribly", evidently their motto.
  • Master of endgames with an impressive 81.9% endgame frequency, proving patience and precision are their best friends.
  • Average moves per winning game clock in at around 83 moves – a marathoner, not a sprinter.
  • Remarkable comeback rate of 89.5%. If paregorics loses a piece, expect the tables to turn! (And fast!)
  • White pieces enjoy a slightly better win rate at 50.44%, but Black is far from a pushover with a respectable 46.11%.

Competitive Highlights

  • Accumulated over 7,370 Bullet wins and 8,558 Blitz victories with a near 48% win rate—intense competition indeed!
  • Rapid chess win rate climbs even higher, topping over 70% in over 200 games, showcasing adaptive prowess across time formats.
  • Favorite openings include the elusive "Top Secret" strategy, dominating nearly 15K Bullet games with stealth and success!

Recent Battles

In a recent nail-biter Bullet match, paregorics outsmarted Tumbesino2025 using the Alekhine's Defense Normal Variation, clinching victory on time after a tense 56-move duel – clearly, clock management is a skill kept sharp!

Another memorable triumph was against Rofiq113, checkmating in a finely played Italian Game. Paregorics shows a taste for classic openings with modern flair.

Psychological Resilience

Tilt factor stands at a modest 13, proving that even when the heat is on, paregorics keeps a (mostly) cool head. And while the best time to play is at 7 AM – perhaps those early risings fuel the brain like a cup of chess-flavored coffee.

Fun Facts

  • Holds a curious record: a win after losing a piece nearly half the time (46.56%), making opponents rethink their 'piece up' advantage!
  • When it comes to time scrambles, paregorics thrives – winning an astounding 8,099 games on timeout, proving patience is a virtue, but speed is king.
  • Despite thousands of games, the player occasionally experiences a brief losing streak of up to 13 games – hey, even grandmasters have bad days (or coffee runs).

With such a rich tapestry of games and stats, paregorics is clearly a force on the 64 squares – combining tactical flair, gritty determination, and a hint of mystery. Whether blitzing through a Bullet game or thoughtfully maneuvering in Rapid, this player is always ready to wrestle the king and cheekily whisper, “Checkmate’s coming!”
