Player Profile: SkaTo8
Meet SkaTo8, the chess enthusiast whose rating journey reads like an epic novel filled with cliffhangers and comebacks. Starting 2024 with a Rapid rating of 647 and a Bullet rating of 424, SkaTo8 showed grit and determination by pushing those numbers to a solid 804 in Rapid and 551 in Bullet by 2025. Clearly, the pawns and knights have been working overtime!
Known for a tactical comeback rate of nearly 75%, SkaTo8 is the kind of player who doesn’t just give up when down a piece — oh no! With a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece, this player turns the tables faster than you can say “Checkmate!” It’s safe to say underestimating SkaTo8’s tactical awareness is a losing proposition.
SkaTo8 favors long battles, boasting an average of over 60 moves per win. Chess marathons? Bring it on. The player’s endgame frequency clocks in at a respectable 67%, suggesting a patient strategist who likes to settle scores when the board starts to clear out.
When playing White, SkaTo8 shines with a 48.67% win rate, while holding their own as Black at 46.65%. But if you think this player is all business, think again — with a tilt factor of 12%, SkaTo8 occasionally lets the frustration out (who doesn’t after a brutal blunder?), yet manages to keep the early resignation rate impressively low at just 1.49%. In other words, they stick around for the drama!
Speaking of drama, SkaTo8’s longest winning streak hit 10 games — nearly a full Open Championship in a row. Currently, however, the winning streak is at a humble 0, possibly enjoying a coffee break or plotting new strategies.
Their most storied rivalries include battles against opponents like coltontiffany, where SkaTo8 holds about a 83% success rate, proving that some adversaries just get outclassed. Of course, no hero's journey is complete without struggles: certain opponents remain tougher nuts to crack.
