Playing Style
Known for an average game length of about 78 moves in wins, robbiek85 enjoys the marathon of thought and calculation. With a propensity to resign early only about 0.54% of their games, this player knows when to fight and when to save face. Their endgame skills shine through, with an endgame frequency of over 81%, proving that the final act is anything but dull.
White pieces yield a slightly higher win rate (53.33%) than black (49.56%), but don’t tell robbiek85 they have a color preference — each side gets the royal treatment.
Opening Repertoire
If openings were a playlist, robbiek85’s would be a chill yet slightly mischievous mix of the Reti Opening and Nimzowitsch-Larsen Attack, favored in both Blitz and Bullet. The Sicilian Defense, in various spicy flavors such as the Taimanov and Nyezhmetdinov Rossolimo, also figures prominently, making early rounds unpredictable and exciting.
Curiously, sprawling out in openings like the King's Indian Defense and English Opening, robbiek85 likes to keep opponents on their toes — and occasionally biting their nails.
Psychology & Trends
The self-proclaimed "tilt factor" measures at a humble 11, suggesting some nerves get the best of this player sometimes — but hey, who doesn't lose their cool when the clock’s ticking down? Their best time of day to strike: 9:00 AM. Morning birds get the pawn worm!
