Roman20000000: The Chess Adventurer

Roman, famously known in the chess community as Roman20000000, is a player who dances elegantly on the 64 squares — sometimes pirouetting with brilliance, other times faceplanting with a grin. His journey is a thrilling saga of ups, downs, and sideways skirmishes with kings and pawns alike.

Rating Rollercoaster

Since first clocking in around 2022, Roman's ratings tell a story of perseverance. His blitz rating soared from humble beginnings (around 530) to a peak blitz rating of 869 in March 2025, showcasing his growing tactical prowess under time pressure. Over in daily chess, he reached a zenith of 1144 in late 2022, combining thoughtful strategy with more relaxed pacing. His rapid chess is no less impressive, boasting a peak rating of 1133 in mid-2024, while bullet chess sees him dash to a peak 620 in 2025, proving he’s not afraid to get fast and furious.

Style & Strategy

Roman favors solid beginnings, with King’s Pawn Opening reigning supreme in all formats. His blitz wins a hearty 56% of the time when deploying this reliable old friend. However, he's not afraid of eclectic choices like the Pirc Defense or the mysterious Top Secret openings—keep your eyes peeled for a curveball!

His gameplay shows a strategic patience: an average game involves about 58 moves per win, proving he enjoys a good chess marathon rather than a quick dash. And should he lose a piece early, don’t count him out — Roman has a respectable 42% chance to win after dropping material and a mind-boggling 72.5% comeback rate overall. A true fighter!

A Mind With Humor and Grit

With a tilt factor of just 10, Roman stays remarkably steady even when the chess gods seem to frown. His best time to play? Midnight, naturally — perhaps when the world is quiet, and the opponents are drowsy.

Oh, and if you catch Roman resigning early, don’t mistake it for giving up; it's just a polite tip of the hat before regrouping for the next storm on the board. After all, only about 4% of his games end in early resignation — he prefers to tussle till the bitter end (or until his opponent blunders spectacularly).

Notable Battles

Roman’s recent victories are nothing short of cinematic. In one memorable blitz battle, he dismantled Robzom11 with a seamless execution of the Caro-Kann Defense, clinching victory with a well-timed queen sacrifice that tilted the scales irrevocably.

Conversely, losses such as a tough encounter against Bastiyan remind him (and us) that even the best have off days — a tiny hiccup in an otherwise promising climb.

Community & Competition

Facing a diverse array of opponents from the cautious to the aggressive, Roman holds his own quite well. His top rivals include petewates and honza103, with mixed results that keep every match unpredictable. His win rates can hit 100% against some opponents, proving that for some, Roman is the dreaded "mate in one" nightmare.

Final Thoughts

Roman20000000 may not yet be a grandmaster, but he embodies the spirit of chess: strategic, resilient, and occasionally mischievous. Whether blitzing like a hurricane or plotting slow daily games, Roman keeps the chessboard alive and electrifying. Keep an eye out for this spirited player, for his next surprise checkmate could be just a move away.
