Profile Summary: P M (aka phiphim)
Meet P M, a chess player whose online alias "phiphim" strikes like a stealthy knight—unexpected, cunning, and occasionally accompanied by the faint sound of a rook marching boldly forward. Starting modestly around 2013 with rapid ratings in the 900s, P M has steadily climbed the ranks, soaring to impressive peaks of 2113 in bullet, 2042 in blitz, and a solid 1549 in rapid by mid-2010s. Even the Daily format couldn’t escape their charm, reaching a strong 1831 rating.
P M’s style? Tactical wizardry blended with resilience. With a comeback rate sailing near 80%, this player thrives even after setbacks—often turning a lost piece into a strategic opportunity. Don’t be fooled by the moderate early resignations (only about 2%), because when the endgame comes knocking, P M is all in, with nearly 75% endgame frequency and a knack for squeezing out victories in long, tense battles averaging close to 70 moves per win.
On the opening battlefield, P M enjoys variety and flair. Favorites include the classic Kings Pawn Opening in rapid games with a 100% win rate, the aggressive Danish Gambit with a 75% success in rapid and over 70% in daily games, and the Scandinavian Defense shining in blitz with nearly 62% wins. Notably, P M has schooled opponents with less popular lines like the Vienna Game Max Lange Vienna Gambit and even ventured into the Philidor Defense.
When asked about their strongest time, P M slyly points to late evenings—22:00 is their prime hour, where the king marches confidently and tactics catch unwary opponents off-guard. Though psychological highs and lows exist (a tilt factor of 20 lets us know even grandmasters have their off days), this player’s persistence shines through.
P M’s game record is extensive: over 1800 wins in Bullet alone, supplemented by hundreds more in Blitz and Daily formats. Battles against familiar foes show remarkable dominance, like a 95% win rate against "gillespuydt" or flawless success against "supersilentspace" and "mpichon." Yet, for all the victories, the journey includes losses—like a recent bout where time slipped away against “harsheyboy,” reminding us all that even champions occasionally stumble.
Fun fact: P M has a penchant for winning in unusual fashions, from checkmate in elegant moves to time victories when the clock ticks mercilessly. Their longest winning streak reached a formidable 24 consecutive games—proof that when the pieces align, phiphim becomes unstoppable.
