Profile Summary: rawiiii

Once upon a time in the wild world of 64 squares, rawiiii emerged not just as your average chess player, but as a blitz warrior with a knack for dramatic swings and tactical flair. Starting their journey in 2013 with a humble blitz rating around 1080, rawiiii has sprinted and stumbled up to a peak of 1880 in November 2016 — a rating that surely caught the eyes of many opponents and possibly a few grandmasters raising an eyebrow.

Playing Style & Strengths

rawiiii is no stranger to gambits and aggressive openings. Whether it's the Scandinavian Defense (especially the Boehnke Gambit), the thrilling Kings Gambit, or the Alapin Sicilian, this player likes to dance on the edge of chaos with a win rate hovering around 50-55% in these sharp lines.

The player's games average around 65 moves when victorious, suggesting a strategic battle rather than quick fire blunders. Also notable is a remarkable comeback rate of 89.85% — rawiiii keeps fighting like a chess phoenix rising from the ashes after losing a piece.

Favorite Time Control

rawiiii clearly favors the calm and calculated realm of Daily chess, achieving a peak rating of 1488 in 2018. This contrasts with their bullet and blitz ratings that showcase their aggressive, faster-paced tendencies. However, when the clock ticks faster, rawiiii remains a formidable opponent—holding solid ratings and performances in bullet and rapid games too.

A Tale of Many Battles

Over the years, rawiiii has amassed an impressive 4627 wins in blitz alone, with nearly as many losses, indicating fierce competition and relentless engagement. Against frequently faced rivals like fmchesstrainer and lisfabre, rawiiii showcases resilience, often splitting results in what must be legendary encounters.

Psychological Quirks

Interestingly, rawiiii's tilt factor is noted at 12, which for chess players means “a bit of spice” — they might occasionally throw a little temper tantrum over a stubborn blunder, but nothing too serious. The best time to catch rawiiii at their sharpest is around 5 AM — early riser or night owl, the chessboard is their stage at dawn!

Signature Victory

One of rawiiii’s recent gems came in a Caro-Kann Defense Exchange Variation, where they gracefully outmaneuvered their opponent to win by resignation. Moves like 33. Rc5 Rxb2 34. Rxb2 Rxb2 35. Ra5 demonstrate precise calculation under time pressure and a knack for squeezing advantage from tense endings.
