RCW827

Player Profile: RCW827

RCW827 is a highly dedicated and resilient chess warrior who has made a name for themselves primarily in the blisteringly fast and unpredictable battlefield of Bullet and Blitz chess. With a peak Bullet rating soaring to an impressive 2560 in August 2022, and a Blitz peak creeping close behind at 2477 just recently in December 2024, this player shows a remarkable blend of speed, skill, and staying power.

Starting at a modest 1635 Bullet rating back in late 2019, RCW827 has carved a steady path upward, showcasing a knack for adapting and improving against tough competition. With over 800 wins in Bullet alone (and nearly as many losses, proving they never shy away from a fight), their win rate hovers just above 50%, a testament to their competitive spirit and consistent tactical prowess.

Don’t be fooled by the rapid-fire pace—RCW827 also dabbles effectively in slower formats, boasting a hearty 84.6% win rate in Daily chess games, proving they can take their time when needed and still come out on top. Their Rapid rating also peaked around 2261, showing versatility across multiple formats.

Playing Style & Psychology

RCW827’s game is a marathon disguised as a sprint: averaging roughly 78 moves per win or loss, they clearly enjoy a long, strategic tussle rather than quick, shallow encounters—unless it's Bullet, of course, where fast reflexes reign supreme. Their endgame prowess is notable, with an endgame frequency over 82%, and an impressive comeback rate of 86.5%—they simply don’t know how to quit.

However, with a tilt factor at 9, RCW827 has a tiny tendency to get a bit frustrated, but nothing that dampens their fierce fighting spirit. They shine best around 5pm (17:00) where apparently the queen and bishop are perfectly aligned in their favor.

Signature Opening: The Top Secret Gambit

Among their opening repertoire, RCW827 keeps everyone guessing with a "Top Secret" approach—covering over 1500 Bullet games and 1100 Blitz contests. The mystery approach pays off with win rates hovering just over 50%, keeping opponents on their toes. Recently, we also witnessed a stunning game employing the Reti Opening Pirc Invitation, culminating in a swift checkmate against badyla in 37 moves in May 2025.

Records & Rivalries

RCW827 has often squared off repeatedly against a handful of formidable foes such as johnsonxi and classicgin, each encounter adding layers to an ongoing rivalry saga. They have demonstrated supreme dominance against many opponents, including 100% win rates against several, while still respecting the occasional nemesis who slips through (looking at you, mrfadeawayj24).
