Evgenij Novikov, Candidate Master

Meet Evgenij Novikov, a chess player whose rating history tells a tale as dynamic as a game of 3D chess — or should we say, a complex biological system where each move replicates the intricate dance of cellular processes. Awarded the prestigious title of Candidate Master by FIDE, Evgenij has demonstrated a growth curve worthy of a thriving organism, evolving from modest ratings in the early 2010s to peaking above 2600 in Bullet chess.

Strengths in Speed and Strategy

Known for their impressive tactical awareness, Evgenij boasts a stellar 98.93% win rate after losing a piece, proving that even when the board seems infected with disadvantage, the strategist’s immune system triggers a fierce comeback in nearly 90% of cases. Their average winning game stretches to ~79 moves, a test of stamina and neural endurance, while losses tend to be longer battles averaging 88 moves, reflecting a resilient will to outlast opponents.

Playing Style: The Endgame Enzyme

With an endgame frequency soaring near 85%, Evgenij thrives in the final phases of the game, carefully sequencing moves with biological precision. They’re the chess equivalent of a molecular biologist: patient, detail-oriented, and always ready to catalyze the right move at the perfect moment.

Opening Repertoire: A Genetic Code of Success

• Bullet: Favours the Scandinavian Defense Mieses Kotrc Gubinsky Melts Defense with a cool 67% win rate — an opening as rare and potent as a beneficial mutation.
• Blitz: Shows versatility, harnessing clicks like the Alapin Sicilian and Caro-Kann with over 52% success rates, demonstrating adaptive strategies suitable for rapid play.
• Rapid: A real specialist here with 100% win rates in several sharp lines including the Italian Game and Sicilian Defense, like a predatory enzyme hunting prey with unerring precision.

Psychological and Temporal Ecology

Evgenij’s gameplay fluctuates mildly with the hour, having peak win rates in the late morning (11 AM at 64.76%) and early afternoon (1 PM at 61.04%), suggesting that their cognitive enzymes fire best during these circadian peaks. They tend to maintain psychological stability under pressure, with a low early resignation rate (2.64%) and a respectable tilt factor of 11, meaning they usually keep calm, though like any living system, sometimes a bit of "twitch" reacts to stress.

Opponent Interaction: A Dominant Species

Evgenij enjoys a dominant ecological niche, boasting perfect or near-perfect win rates against a wide array of opponents, showing adaptability and resilience across the competitive biosphere. Their longest winning streak is a phenomenal 31 games — a true predator in the chess wild!
