Meet shaker05, a chess player whose journey through the 64 squares is a rollercoaster of valiant wins, humbling losses, and those clutch moments where a timely resignation saves face... or so they hope. With a peak blitz rating soaring to 1066 and a rapid high of 709, shaker05 is definitely no stranger to competitive play – though sometimes, the feared “tilt factor” of 11 proves that even the best can have a meltdown after a string of unfortunate moves.
Known for a tactical comeback rate of nearly 79%, shaker05 has saved many games from the jaws of defeat. Their toolbox includes a strong preference for the King’s Pawn Opening in blitz (winning nearly 60% of those 88 games) and a crafty approach to the Queens Gambit Accepted Central Variation Alekhine System with an impressive 61% win rate. When time controls tick down, shaker05’s resilience shines brightest between 1 AM and 3 AM—their statistically best time of day to play (sorry, sleep!).
Their playing style? Expect a blend of patience and calculation, with an average of about 48 moves per win. However, the endgame is where they dance the most, appearing in about 38% of games, making those final moments as thrilling as a cliffhanger episode.
This player’s favored battlefields are blitz and rapid, where they’ve honed skills through hundreds of battles. The blitz journey has been a saga of ups and downs, from a jaw-dropping 1066 peak in late 2023 to the ongoing grind that keeps numbers fluctuating. Rapid games show a steady climb, recently hitting a peak of 709 in late 2024. Bullet and daily formats? Let’s just say shaker05 is still warming up there.
