Player Profile: raw822

Meet raw822, a resilient and industrious chess player steadily making progress one calculated move at a time. Starting in 2024 with a rapid rating peaking at a humble 1200, raw822 has shown a determined climb to nearly 900 in rapid chess by mid-2025, proving that perseverance is king on and off the board.

Although the blitz and bullet ratings might suggest raw822 prefers a thoughtful, deliberate pace over lightning-fast tactics (with peak blitz at 741 and bullet at 310), their rapid game is where strategies mature and battles unfold. With an overall rapid win record standing at 465 victories to 422 losses and a handful of draws, raw822 embodies the classic “never say die” spirit — bouncing back with a commendable comeback rate of 63.4%.

Specializing in Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack variations and Scandinavian Defense lines, raw822 has a penchant for openings that dazzle with unexpected twists; perhaps secretly hoping opponents will wonder, "Did they really just try that?" A win rate over 56% in the Nimzowitsch Larsen Attack Modern Variation at rapid time controls speaks volumes about their tactical comfort zone. When the clock ticks, especially in the quiet hours of early morning (the prime time being 4 AM, where raw822’s win rate soars to 75%), this player strikes with precision and a steady hand.

Raw822’s playing style is a mix of patience and perseverance. The average moves per win hover around 46, and games often stretch into miniature marathons, featuring endgames in more than a third of matches. They are not afraid to resign early from unwinnable battles (about 6% early resignation rate), saving energy for the next clash.

Despite the occasional losing streak that can stretch to 10 games (hey, everyone has those days), the current streak stands strong at 5 wins. When playing White, raw822 scores just under 50%, and as Black, roughly 45%. A true battler in every sense, faced more often with higher-rated opponents, challenges are embraced even if odds are tough.

Off the scoreboard, raw822 is a tactician with a strong psychological resilience, with a measured tilt factor of 10 (human, not machine). And always ready to surprise – just like in their latest game victories where checkmates and time pressure victories close the curtain with style.

For opponents and fans alike, raw822 represents the archetype of the scrappy chess battler: no supercomputer skills needed, just relentless spirit, early morning brilliance, and tactical creativity. Whether it’s a Scandinavian Defense or a Kings Pawn Opening, expect passion, perseverance, and maybe a sneaky queen sacrifice.
