Profile of pax161: The Enigmatic Chess Adventurer

Meet pax161, a chess player whose journey is nothing short of a rollercoaster ride through the ranks, with the charm of unpredictability and a touch of mystery. Despite hovering in the under-1000 rapid rating zone, pax161 proves resilience and persistence are just as important as Elo points.

Starting off in 2024 with a rapid rating high of 983 and dropping to 438 by year's end, pax161 clearly took the scenic route down the leaderboard. In 2025, rapid play continued to challenge them with ratings ranging from 171 up to a modest 470, while blitz made a cameo—a single game where victory was elusive.

With a rapid record of 148 wins and 165 losses (not counting the 14 draws), pax161 demonstrates a fearless approach—never afraid to tussle with tougher opponents. Their longest winning streak? A respectable 7 games, proving they can string good moves together when the stars align. The current streak is a solid zero, reminding all that even chess heroes have their off days.

Specializing in "Top Secret" openings (really, the data is just as mysterious as the name suggests), pax161 boasts about a 45% win rate over more than 320 rapid games. One wonders if their penchant for secrecy extends to confounding playing style—a lesson in unpredictability!

Poker face? More like a chess face: pax161 often starts bravely but has a habit of throwing in the towel early around 14% of games. Nonetheless, they engage in endgames frequently (almost 40% of the time), and interestingly, they average nearly 47 moves per win — a sign of enduring patience or thrilling tactical battles that make for great stories.

Psychological resilience is a core strength here. Even after losing a piece, pax161’s win rate soars magically to 100% — proving that underdog comeback stories might be their signature. However, they also have an amusingly low tilt factor of 8, keeping their composure in the heat of battle without turning into a fountain of frustration.

The weekly rhythm reveals pax161 is at their best on Fridays and Saturdays with win rates above 50%, while mornings have some hidden magic with an 8 AM perfect win record. Night owls beware: late evening games (10-11 PM) also show impressive success.

Opponents are a mixed bag: pax161 has tasted full triumphs against many but struggles against a handful (sorry, bigbumboibrody, only 50%). In any case, the chessboard is a battlefield where pax161 keeps fighting with humor, grit, and a sprinkle of unpredictability.

In short, pax161 is a charming mixture of strategy, persistence, and a pinch of mystery — a player who’s still writing their chess legend, one game (and one surprise) at a time.
