Meet patchessw: The Chess Adventurer

patchessw is not your everyday chess player – they've got a quirky style that mixes bold risks with some classic mid-game escapes! As of 2025, patchessw’s peak Rapid rating stands proudly at 1020, a commendable milestone that’s been steadily climbed from a modest starting point of 674. Not a bad journey for someone who’s played 90 rapid games, winning more than half of them (51 to be exact) and sneaking in just a few draws to keep the suspense alive.

Blitz Battles and Bullet Bulletins

In blitz, patchessw clocked in over 500 games, a marathon of fast moves and faster decisions. With an average rating around 624 and a nearly even split between wins and losses, it’s clear this player thrives on sheer volume and experience—in fact, the longest winning streak is an impressive 9 games straight. Bullet games, where things happen at lightning speed, are a story of mixed success: a max rating of 963 but a fighting spirit reflected in over a dozen wins out of 36 matches.

The Mysterious Opening: "Top Secret"

It seems patchessw loves to keep their opening repertoire under wraps—quite literally labeled “Top Secret.” Whether in Rapid, Blitz, or Bullet, this opening holds the lion’s share of their games and quite decent win rates, especially a nifty 56.7% in rapid. For the rare times other openings have breezed through, the performance is a mixed bag with occasional perfect records in tiny samples (Philidor Defense, anyone?).

Statistical Shenanigans

  • Early Resignation: Nearly half (47.4%) of the games get cut short early—either a strategic retreat or a "there goes my queen" moment.
  • Comeback King: A strong 39.9% comeback rate proves patchessw doesn’t give up easily; losing a piece only fuels their hunger, with a 55.6% win rate after such setbacks.
  • Daytime Strategist: Their best hours? Early mornings and late afternoons, with win rates soaring above 60% at certain times like 6am, 13:00, and 18:00.

Opponents Beware!

patchessw has faced many challengers, sometimes repeatedly. The most frequently met rival is nothing_210, with 130 encounters that ended roughly split — about 45% wins for patchessw. But beware, some opponents have never tasted victory (looking at you, bl2zero) while others have been swept off the board early and often. A psychological tilt factor of 10 shows patchessw keeps their cool better than most when the pressure's on.

Whether you’re playing Rapid, Bullet, Blitz, or a casual Daily game, patchessw brings a blend of perseverance, secret weapon openings, and a dash of unpredictability. If you catch them in their prime hour or catch an unsuspecting blunder from the opponent, things might just get really interesting!

Keep an eye on this rising star—patchessw is playing the long game, one thrilling move at a time.
