Affan Saracevic: The Chessboard Contender

Also known by the enigmatic username Prokidac, Affan Saracevic is a rapidly rising chess player whose rating adventures are nothing short of a rollercoaster ride through the kingdom of sixty-four squares.

Rating Highlights & Playing Style

By 2025, Affan reached a peak Rapid rating of 678 (only to be humbled back to 574 later—chess is a humbling teacher!). In Blitz, his sharp eye rewarded him with a top rating of 648, showcasing his quick thinking in fast-paced clashes. Known for an impressive 70% comeback rate, Affan refuses to back down and often snatches victory from the jaws of defeat. True to form, he boasts a flawless 100% win rate after losing a piece, making him the nightmare of anyone who thinks an early blunder means certain doom.

Opening Moves: A Blend of Tradition and Innovation

When it comes to openings, Affan isn't shy around the board. His favorite battleground seems to be the Caro-Kann Defense, where he plays 142 Rapid games with a solid 49.3% win rate. He also flexes his creativity in the Queen’s Pawn Opening Accelerated London System and dances through the Indian Game with a respectable 52% win rate. Affan’s Blitz tactics include some "Top Secret" moves—maybe even a sneaky Pirc Defense or Scandinavian Defense—that keep his opponents guessing (and often losing!).

A Mental Chess Marathoner

With an average game length of roughly 60 moves for wins and 53 for losses, Affan clearly enjoys the slow, strategic grind of a chess marathon over quick tactical skirmishes. His endgame frequency at 55% shows he's comfortable navigating the delicate finale where every move counts. However, beware his early resignation rate of 6.19%—even the bravest sometimes know when to throw in the towel (or maybe he just really hates hanging pawns).

Quirky Habits & Stats

Affan has a curious pattern of performance depending on time and day: his best moves come early in the morning around 7 AM (a staggering 75% win rate—clearly a dawn person) and also at 8 AM with over 61% success. His psychological tilt factor is a manageable 7 out of 100, proving he keeps his cool better than most when the chess gods test his resolve.

Notable Opponent Encounters

Facing frequent rivals like ajidaa and krazykaymak, Affan maintains a competitive edge with a 75% win rate against the former and almost 86% against the latter. His record against some tough opponents demonstrates a mix of absolute dominance and areas needing growth—after all, no chess warrior is undefeated forever.

Final Thought

Affan Saracevic is the quintessential underdog with a penchant for long battles, strategic resilience, and the occasional cheeky quick move. Whether he’s pulling victory from thin air after piece loss or navigating endgames with finesse, one thing is clear: the chessboard is his playground, and he’s always ready for the next challenge (even if it means facing his demons and resigning early now and then).
