Soni Bro (aka RikaAbsoni)
Meet Soni Bro, a chess battler with a rating rollercoaster worthy of a thrill ride! Climbing from a modest Rapid rating of 568 in early 2024 to a nimble 970 in 2025, Soni’s game has definitely been on an upward swing. It's safe to say they're no stranger to the classics—or "Top Secret" openings, dominating nearly 3200 Rapid games with a close-to-50% win rate. Looks like the secret’s out!
With a penchant for Rapid chess (their favorite playground with 3,204 games), Soni has been quite the gladiator—over 1,500 wins balanced by just as many losses and some well-earned draws to keep it interesting. In Blitz and Bullet, the story is a bit more, shall we say, “expressive” with a handful of games but modest success—a bit like trying to sprint through a marathon.
Fun fact: Soni once rocked an 11-game winning streak, proving they're not just about chess moves, but also about chess grooves. However, the current streak rests at zero—perhaps plotting a grand comeback or just taking a well-deserved breather.
Playing Style & Psyche
- Endgames: Soni dances through endgames 57% of the time—clearly loving those final battles on the 64 squares.
- Move Counts: Wins average about 62 moves, losses about 53, so they really stick around for the long haul—who said chess is a short game?
- Psychological Quirk: A tilt factor of 12 means Soni gets a bit salty sometimes, but recovers with a comeback rate of 74%, making them the Houdini of the chessboard.
- Resilience: Soni never throws in the towel early—only quitting quickly about 3% of the time.
When to Challenge Soni?
Beware the hours between 0:00 and 16:00, where Soni’s win rate peaks, especially the mighty 71% smash at 16:00—probably after a strong coffee or a quick tactical warm-up. Weekdays are solid as well, with Thursday and Friday edging towards 51% wins.
Opponent Tidbits
Soni has faced a smorgasbord of opponents, with a mixed bag of results but notable 100% win records against the likes of spicytunasalad and lmpratap. On the flip side, some challengers like rojan_tmg tend to send Soni home empty-handed.
Summary
Whether you're an aspiring grandmaster or just want a friendly match with a flair for comebacks and perseverance, Soni Bro is the one to watch. Eternal optimist, endgame enthusiast, and a tactical ninja, they turn every game into a saga. So, queue up your best moves—but watch out, because Soni never loses pieces without a fight and turns every disadvantage into a winning story.
