Profile: shadmehr99 - The Chess Adventurer
Meet shadmehr99, a tenacious and spirited chess player whose journey through the ranks is nothing short of a roller-coaster ride — packed with thrilling victories, a fair share of losses, and the occasionally dramatic checkmate that leaves spectators gasping.
Rating Odyssey
Shadmehr99’s peak ratings are quite respectable: 1611 in Rapid (December 2021), a dizzying 1662 in Blitz (March 2022), and a swift 1584 in Bullet (January 2022). These numbers illustrate a player who’s quick on their feet but strategic enough to hold ground in longer games. Over the years, their rating has danced gracefully between highs and lows, showing resilience and a hunger to improve.
Playing Style & Psychological Traits
With an 80.97% comeback rate, shadmehr99 exemplifies the never-say-die spirit. Losing a piece? No problem, the comeback magic continues with nearly 45% win rate after such mishaps. Their preferred battlefield is the late game, with an impressive 70.36% frequency going to the endgame arena. They average about 68 moves per win, proving patience is a virtue — perhaps legendary patience, because tracing the path to victory might need a map and a snack!
Beware the tilt factor of 11, though — in chess, even legendary warriors have their off moments. The best time for a peak performance appears to be around 3 AM, so you might just catch shadmehr99 conjuring brilliance when the rest of us mere mortals are dreaming of pawns and castles.
Opening Preferences
Shadmehr99’s opening repertoire is an eclectic mix:
- Rapid: Skilled with the Top Secret (no spoilers!), the disciplined King's Pawn Opening, and the clever Scandinavian Defense boasting a strong 62.3% win rate.
- Blitz: Dabbles in tricky gambits like the Englund Gambit and builds solid fortresses with the Old Benoni Defense.
- Bullet: Favors sharp and dynamic openings like King's Fianchetto Opening and surprisingly loves the Owens Defense, boasting a solid 58% success.
Notable Achievements & Records
With an overall balanced scorecard — roughly equal wins and losses in rapid, blitz, and bullet formats — shadmehr99 knows how to hold their ground in the chaos of intense time controls. Their longest winning and losing streaks both clock at 11 games, revealing a player who embraces the highs and lows of competitive chess with equal gusto.
Fun fact: When facing opponents just a smidge lower rated, shadmehr99 wins approximately 76% of the time — a true king of the underdog battles! But beware the higher-rated foes — they tend to crumple the queen a bit more here, with only a 28% win rate.
