With a rollercoaster rating journey that peaked at a commendable 984 in Rapid chess during September 2023, Prathamesh2052 proves that steady progress (and occasional setbacks) are part of the game.
Playing Style & Strengths
Prathamesh2052 approaches chess like a curious mix of an explorer and a resilient fighter. With an endgame frequency of over 58%, this player enjoys the long haul, grinding through those final phases when pawns become queens and rook duels get fierce. A knack for comebacks shines bright here, boasting a remarkable 80.89% comeback rate — clearly never one to give up after a stumble.

But don’t mistake patience for passivity — our tactical awareness is highlighted by a solid ~42% win rate even after losing a piece. Stubborn? Absolutely. Early resignations are rare, just about 6.6% of the time, signaling a willingness to fight on till the bitter end (or until the opponent blinks first).
Favorite Openings
Some might say their opening repertoire is a secret, but actually it’s full of favorites with quirky names! In Rapid chess, Prathamesh2052 seems fond of the King’s Pawn Opening (Leonardis Variation) and the Scandinavian Defense, with respectable win rates around 50% and above. Meanwhile, the Philidor Defense sometimes causes headaches (win rate ~43%), suggesting it might be time for a few new tricks up the sleeve.
