Playing Style and Quirks
Known for a surprising comeback rate of almost 75%, silpa02 never says die – losing a piece isn't the end, it's just the beginning of the story. Their win rate after losing a piece is a perfect 100%, which might make opponents think twice before taking any pawn. Average moves per win hover near 60, suggesting a penchant for the long game and psychological warfare.
Although they sometimes take early resignation more than usual (about 1.9% of games), their games often last, with endgames making up over half of their matches. Plus, a tilt factor of 10 indicates silpa02 is human after all, occasionally letting emotions peek through the armor.
Time Preferences & Tactical Awareness
Fun fact: silpa02 plays best early in the mornings (5-8 AM) and late evenings around 11 PM, proving that sometimes burning the midnight oil really does fuel tactical brilliance. Blitz rating improvements and impressive comeback statistics highlight a player who learns quickly and thrives under pressure.
