Reibisa: The Rapid Rookmaster

Meet Reibisa, a rapidly rising star in the chess cosmos, known for both tactical fireworks and the occasional emotional rollercoaster. Despite the humble Rapid rating hovering around 400-500, Reibisa’s journey is nothing short of entertaining and inspiring for anyone who’s ever blundered a queen but bounced back with style.

Rating and Match Stats

• Peak Rapid Rating: 544 (May 2025)
• Total Rapid Games: Over 2700 played with a close call record of 815 wins, 802 losses, and 70 draws — talk about living on the edge of your seat!
• Average Moves: Matches often last around 60 moves per win and even longer in losses, showing persistence and stamina that Corvettes envy.

Playing Style

Reibisa is not your average button presser. With a relatively low early resignation rate (3.37%) and a penchant for intense, often long endgames (appearing in nearly 64% of games), Reibisa fights tooth and nail until the bitter checkmate or elusive draw. Not afraid to experiment, Reibisa has a 53% win rate with White and a slightly humbler 43.5% with Black — proving a bit of color bias exists even in chess.

Favorite Openings

• King’s Pawn Opening: 200 games with a 44% win rate; a classic battleground where Reibisa’s creativity sometimes meets chaos.
• Van ’t Kruijs Opening: 153 games and nearly 50% wins — a favorite mix of cunning and surprise.
• French Defense: Winning over half (54%) in 46 games, a reliable choice when Reibisa wants to spice things up with solid defense and counterattacks.
• Queen’s Pawn Zukertort Variation: The real overachiever with a 61% win rate in 36 games — the secret weapon for sneaky positional play.
• Also dabbling in the Philidor Defense and Bishop’s Opening, though with mixed success — hey, nobody’s perfect!

Tactical Bravery & Psychological Insights

With a hearty 70% comeback rate, Reibisa shows uncanny resilience: losing a piece? No problem, the fight’s far from over! However, an occasional tilt factor of 9 reminds us that Reibisa is human — after all, who hasn’t slammed their mouse after a brutal blunder?

Best time to catch the magic: 3 AM sharp — when the world sleeps, Reibisa’s brain kicks into genius mode (or madness, one can’t be sure).
