Profile Summary: Pudgimist

Over the years, Pudgimist has emerged as a dedicated chess competitor whose journey reflects both steady growth and an analytical approach to the game. From early beginnings in 2020, when rapid ratings were modest at just over 1100, to achieving rapid milestones of 1500 in 2023 and 1600 in 2024, Pudgimist’s progress is marked not only by upward rating trends but also by an evolving tactical and psychological skillset.

In blitz encounters, Pudgimist’s early forays achieved a maximum of 1419 in 2020 but have since featured more measured performances with ratings in the 1050 range. Rapid and bullet formats illustrate a more dynamic competitive edge—a rapid rating that surged from 1102 in 2020 to 1557 in 2025, and bullet games where victories have been secured at a consistent rating level. This evolution highlights an ability to adapt to different time controls and pressures.

The statistics reveal an endgame specialist with a strong inclination for longer, methodical battles. With an endgame frequency of over 70% and average moves per win in the high 60s, Pudgimist approaches each game with careful planning and resilient tactical awareness. Notably, the comeback rate of nearly 77% and a perfect win rate after losing a piece signal extraordinary determination and resourcefulness in dire situations.

Time performance analysis shows that Pudgimist’s strengths surface even in specific time windows – with noticeably high win percentages at certain hours (for example, an astonishing performance peak at hour 11) and a fairly balanced win rate throughout all days of the week. These insights into time-of-day trends underline a well-balanced and strategic mindset under varied circumstances.

Beyond raw numbers, the player’s psychological steadiness is evident with a low tilt factor and only a modest gap between performance in rated and casual play. Nearly impervious to one-sided losses, and with minimal early resignations, Pudgimist embodies the traits of a thoughtful, enduring competitor who thrives in the crucible of complex positions.

In sum, Pudgimist’s biography in the chess world is one of continuous improvement, resilient strategy, and a measured yet ambitious playing style. The journey from humble beginnings to impressive milestones across classical, rapid, and blitz formats underscores a commitment to both the theoretical and practical dimensions of chess, ensuring that each game is approached with a blend of creativity, precision, and determination.
