About Rukna5768

Meet Rukna5768, a chess player whose journey on the 64 squares is as unpredictable as a squirrel on espresso. Rated as high as 1386 in Rapid chess back in December 2024, Rukna5768 has shown that persistence beats raw talent—just ask their 56 wins against 91 losses in Rapid games.

Specializing in classic openings with a twist, Rukna favors the King's Pawn Opening, especially the King's Knight Variation, fighting fiercely with a win rate hovering around 33-37%. Occasionally, players have met an unexpected roadblock when facing the Caro-Kann Defense or the sly Scandinavian Defense, where Rukna enjoys a respectable 50-60% win rate.

Playing Style

If speed is the soul of wit, Rukna’s games display a patient soul—an average of roughly 50 moves to victory. Not one to sulk after setbacks, this player’s comeback rate stands at around 51%, proof that giving up is simply not in their chess vocabulary (except when they resign early about 11% of the time). White pieces grant a slightly better shot with a 41.56% win rate compared to 32.89% with Black, suggesting a bit of a love affair with the first move.

Memorable Moments & Records

  • Longest winning streak: 5 games (because five is lucky, right?)
  • Longest losing streak: 10 games (proof that even humans hit rough patches)
  • Current streak: Not so lucky with 2 losses—time to bounce back!

Openings Gallery

Whether playing the fiery King's Gambit or the steady Bishop's Opening, Rukna’s opening repertoire is diverse and sometimes delightfully surprising, even employing the Van’t Kruijs Opening—a rarity on the chessboard and a potential plotting ground for new tactics. With a 100% win rate in daily games using the Van’t Kruijs, Rukna clearly has some hidden tricks up the sleeve.

Psychology of Play

Morning workouts? Nah. The best time to face the opponent is 8:00 AM, the golden hour when the brain is sharp and coffee cup is full. Tilt factor is low (10%), proving that Rukna handles defeat with the grace of a cat—sometimes falling, but always landing on the feet.

Noteworthy Rivalries

Playing against chessa2696, avril117, or stevenphilippe spells a good chance of victory with a perfect track record. But beware when eyes lock with mateuszpatryk or jim3125, who have chalked up wins in encounters, reminding that even the best have their nemeses.

Recent Triumph

On June 8, 2025, Rukna5768 delivered a graceful performance against ChessA2696 culminating in a resignation victory—a classic reminder that patience and pressure win wars.


Preferred Arena

While Rukna's strength shines in Daily chess with a peak rating of 1600, Rapid remains a battleground of fierce struggle and perseverance, and Bullet is an adrenaline rush where every move counts (even if the rating is modest).
