Profile: plorpz, International Master

Meet plorpz, the chess virtuoso who holds the prestigious title of International Master awarded by FIDE. Known for an explosive style and a heart of steel, plorpz isn't just a player—they're a blitz and bullet aficionado with ratings that would make even grandmasters raise an eyebrow.

In 2024, plorpz skyrocketed from a respectable 1790 blitz rating at the year's start to a mind-blowing peak of 2822, finishing at a solid 2783. Even with just a handful of games played in 2025, plorpz maintained near-perfect form, cruising at a blitz rating just shy of 2800. Bullet chess? No problem. With an average rating of about 2750, and flawless recent results, plorpz is basically a human bullet timer.

Their secret opening? Classified under "Top Secret"—and with a win rate above 66% in blitz and 70% in bullet, secrecy obviously has its perks. Opponents beware: plorpz has dominated a wide array of challengers, boasting perfect win records against many, including "lennis93," "speed-o-sonic," and "davit_tiraturyan." If you see plorpz on the pairings board, you might want to sit back and grab popcorn instead of trying risky gambits.

Holding a longest winning streak of 11 games and a current streak at 6, plorpz is a juggernaut on the rise. Their average game length hovers just shy of 88 moves when winning, which means they’re in it for the mental marathon—not just a quick checkmate dash. Their endgame skills shine through, visible in a remarkably high endgame frequency of over 84%, showing patience, precision, and nerves of titanium.

Psychologically, plorpz is a comeback king with an astonishing 90%+ recovery rate after setbacks and a flawless 100% win rate after losing a piece—make no mistake, they laugh in the face of adversity. Though they do have a slight tilt factor of 6 (hey, nobody's perfect), their average early resignation rate is impressively low at just 2.33%.

When asked about plorpz’s best playing time, weekdays aren't much of a surprise: afternoon hours and early mornings are prime turf, with nearly perfect win rates between 3 AM and 3 PM. It seems the brain's sharpest between caffeine shots and cat naps.

In short, plorpz is an International Master with a knack for blitz and bullet, a mysterious opening repertoire, and a mind capable of turning losing positions into dazzling victories. Challengers beware: facing plorpz might just be your own secret agent mission—top-secret and high-risk.

Hi plorpz! Your recent blitz/bullet streak shows great energy at the board. Below is a concise, practical road-map to keep that rating climbing.

Peak rating so far: 2955 (2025-06-10).

What’s working well ✅

  • Fast initiative-grabbing openings. In your win against Loic Travadon you threw the Harry pawn (h-pawn) down the board and never looked back, demonstrating confident attacking instincts.
  • Tactical vision under time-pressure. Sequences such as 15.Ng5+ Ke8 16.f7+! show you spot forcing moves even with seconds ticking.
  • Endgame grind. The 74-move conversion versus Νik kontos proves sound technique once you reach a winning ending.
  • Practical time handling. You often finish with 10-20 % of your clock intact while opponents flag — a key bullet skill.

Recurring trouble spots 🚧

  1. Over-extension of the h-pawn vs solid defence. • Loss to Pieter Heesters ended after 14…Qd7 when your pieces lagged behind your pawn storm.
    • Tip: Before pushing h4-h5, ask “Can I complete development if Black simply ignores me?” If not, postpone the thrust.
  2. Development lag & central neglect. In several defeats (e.g., vs HamedWafa4, move 12…Rc8!) opponents struck in the centre while your queen bishop and king’s rook were still asleep.
    • Drill the guideline “three minors & king safety before side pawn advances.”
  3. Predictability in repertoire. Almost every White game begins 1.d4 2.Bg5 or 2.h4; as Black you rely heavily on the Modern (…g6). Good to master a pet line, but at 2800+ players prep quickly.
    • Add one classical system each side (e.g., QGD with Black, Catalan or London with White) so opponents cannot book-trap you.
  4. Time losses in won positions. Two recent games show “won but flagged / abandoned”. Try 15-min weekly sessions of increment (3 + 2) to train finishing technique without the flag anxiety.

Action plan for the next 2 weeks 📅

TaskHowGoal
Opening diversity Play 10 rapid games with Classical lines (no early h-pawn). Log critical positions. Build a second weapon & spot transpositions.
Centre-first mindset Annotate your own loss PGN

highlighting moves that ignored central tension.
Internalise “develop, centre, castle” mantra.
Tactics cooldown Daily 15-minute puzzle rush sprint followed by 5 quiet endgame puzzles. Balance sharp calculation with calm technique.
Finish line practice Play 5 games at 3 + 2; when winning, switch to “increment mode”: make the safest move, premove only checks. Eliminate unnecessary flaggings.

Keep the momentum!

Your current style is a crowd-pleaser — just anchor it with a bit more classical discipline and opponents will dread both your pawn storms and your positional squeezes. See you on the leader-boards, and happy hunting!
