Profile Summary: Shmell89

Meet Shmell89, a chess adventurer thriving in the chaos of rapid and blitz battles while dabbling occasionally in bullet and daily games. Known for a staggering longest winning streak of 29 games, Shmell89 once blazed through opponents like a tactical tornado, although current winning streaks might be on a brief coffee break.

Ratings Rollercoaster

  • Blitz: Improved from a modest 416 in early 2024 to a respectable 604 by the start of 2025, with a personal best soaring up to 733. Quite the comeback kid!
  • Rapid: Peaked just shy of 1000 in 2024, showing an aggressive yet slightly unpredictable style.
  • Bullet & Daily: A casual flirt, with fewer games but showing flashes of brilliance—perfect for when you’re short on time or patience.

Play Style & Personality

Shmell89’s games are a strategic mix of persistence and tactical flair, with an impressive 66.7% comeback rate and a 100% win rate after losing a piece! That’s right: the chessboard equivalent of turning lemons into lemonade, lemonade into a cocktail, and cocktail into a party.

With an early resignation rate of just over 4%, this player refuses to give up easily—unless, of course, they’ve spotted an inevitable checkmate and want to save time for the next battle.

Psychological Quirks & Stats

Shmell89 isn’t immune to tilt (13% tilt factor), but bounces back stronger. Rated versus casual games show a 47.5% better win performance—clearly, the pressure makes this player shine brighter!

Favorite Opponents & Rivalries

There’s a love-hate relationship going on: undefeated against some (100% win rate against “rodryeg” and “devdeepgupta”) and utterly humbled by others (0% against “r4inberries” and “abodmanaa”). No chess journey would be complete without a few nemeses!

When to Catch Shmell89 at Their Best

Prime time is evenings around 16:00 to 18:00, where win rates hover just above 50%, with a peak tactical genius suspected between 4 AM and 7 AM (win rates in the high 50s to 57%), likely fueled by caffeine or sheer madness.

In Conclusion

Shmell89 is no grandmaster (yet), but they are a fierce competitor with a flair for dramatic comebacks, a stubborn will to fight, and a penchant for top-secret openings that keep their opponents guessing. Whether you’re playing for fun or fiery rivalry, facing Shmell89 guarantees a rollercoaster of emotions and chess brilliance.
