Jerzy Małyska - The Relentless Tactician

Jerzy Małyska, known in the chess realms as Seldon1717, is a player whose passion for the 64 squares is as deep as his love for lengthy queen endgames. With a Blitz peak rating nudging just above 1400 in 2025 and a Rapid zenith of 1493 the same year, Jerzy demonstrates a sturdy grip over multiple time controls, albeit with a penchant for some beautifully messy and interesting games.

Unlike the stereotypical speedster, Jerzy’s chess journey seems to flourish during the evening hours, with a particularly impressive 64.29% win rate at 2 AM—because why not conquer the board while the rest of the world sleeps?

Statistical Highlights & Behavior Quirks

  • Comebacks: Jerzy boasts an astonishing 88.33% comeback rate, ensuring never to let a game slip away without a fight.
  • Endgame Enthusiast: Nearly 77% of his games swing into the endgame, favoring long, strategic battles over quick knockouts.
  • Early Resignation: A humble 0.65% early resignation rate; clearly, Jerzy likes to give his opponents every chance to witness his endgame wizardry.

Jerzy’s tactical awareness shines through with a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece—a cheeky reminder that in chess, it’s not over till it’s over... or until you’ve blundered a queen into a clever fork!

With a longest winning streak of 21 games and a current streak of 2, Jerzy’s chess spirit remains unstopped, riding the tides of victories and occasional pit stops in the realm of learning.

Playing Style

Marrying resilience with tenacity, Jerzy combines solid defense with aggressive strikes, maintaining an average of 77 moves per win—don’t expect any quick and dirty games here!

True to his name, the occasional tilt factor of 13 suggests he might mumble some colorful critiques at the board—but with a difference of -11.31% in rated vs. casual games, even the best have their off days.

Fun Facts

  • Most played opponent: eugenkovin - a fierce rival with dozens of battles under their belt.
  • Jerzy’s secret opening? Well... that’s top secret! But with an almost 48.2% success rate in Blitz, it’s definitely causing some frustration to opponents.
  • He plays with such endurance that his last recorded game keeps pushing the clock to 77 moves.

Jerzy Małyska isn’t just a player; he’s a saga in motion, proving that chess is a marathon, not a sprint. Ready your pieces and prepare for one heck of a fight when facing him!
