Player Profile: RGA2248
Meet RGA2248, a daily chess warrior steadily climbing the ladder from humble beginnings around the 400s rating mark in early 2024 to breaking a peak rating of 803 in January 2025. This player’s chess journey resembles an epic novel full of ups, downs, and surprise plot twists — including a longest winning streak of 8 games and, on the flip side, a dreaded 5-game losing streak (because hey, even the best stumble sometimes).
Chess Style & Strengths
RGA2248 has an endgame penchant, engaging in late battles over 60% of the time, showing resilience and tactical awareness by pulling off comebacks in over half of the losing-position battles. White pieces are their lucky charm, boasting a 68.29% win rate, while Black isn’t too shabby either at just under 59%. Average games tend to stretch over 60 moves no matter the outcome—talk about endurance and patience!
Favorite Openings & Tactical Quirks
This player doesn’t shy away from variety, but some openings clearly tickle their fancy:
- Queen's Pawn Opening — undefeated in 6 games with a flawless 100% win rate. The crowd goes wild!
- Alekhine's Defense — a spicy option, yielding an impressive 80% win rate—clearly a weapon to keep opponents on their toes.
- Van Geet Opening and its Reversed Nimzowitsch Variation also bring smiles, each with a solid 75% win rate.
Not every tactic works every time though—sometimes the Chigorin Variation of the Queen's Pawn Opening gives RGA2248 a headache, converting only 2 wins from 6 attempts. But hey, we all have that one quirky line we love to hate.
Personality on the Board
RGA2248 manages tilt quite well, with a low tilt factor of 5, demonstrating a calm approach even when the going gets tough—no early resignations here! Not just a one-trick pony, this player’s comeback rate of nearly 55% means never counting them out once they’ve lost material. Psychologically, mornings (around 9 AM) are the golden hour; perhaps a strong coffee and a chessboard make the perfect combo.
Notable Battles
Some rivals have faced the storm more than others: fathertenboom (29 games, 72% win rate), tblai (16 games, 81% wins), and Marie11a (5 games, 60% wins) have been frequent opponents, twice witnessing RGA2248’s checkmating flair.
Recent Highlights
Their most recent victory was a spectacular checkmate against Marie11a on March 2, 2025 — a finesse-filled match crowned by a stunning final move, Ne7#. And if that doesn’t prove their tenacity, the fact that RGA2248 has triumphed 51 times, lost 25, and drawn only 4 in a good number of fights shows plenty of grit and love for the game.
Fun Fact
With a perfect 100% win rate on Sundays and at some odd early hours like 1 AM and 9 AM, RGA2248 might just be nocturnal (or just really lucky with the chess spirits on weekends)!
Whether grinding daily or refining the endgame battles, RGA2248 is a player who brings both strategy and stubborn perseverance to the board. Keep an eye on this rising star — they're proof that dedication slowly but surely turns pawns into queens.
