StoneIslandfan: The Chess Explorer
Meet StoneIslandfan, a relentless chess adventurer who’s been navigating the 64 squares with a mix of tactical flair and occasional fashionably timed setbacks. Starting their recorded chess journey in 2021, this player climbed quickly to a rapid peak rating of 1057 in September of the same year, proving early on that they’ve got some serious board vision.
Not one to be pigeonholed into a single time control, StoneIslandfan dabbles across the spectrum: from the thrilling speed of blitz, where they smashed their personal record at 1154 as recently as May 2025, to the more contemplative daily games, boasting a peak rating of 1213 in late 2024. Bullet? Sure, they tried it, hitting a modest peak of 657, perhaps affirming the idea that rapid-fire isn’t their natural habitat — but hey, everyone needs a challenge!
Playing Style & Strategy
Known for a substantial 58% endgame frequency, StoneIslandfan enjoys grinding out advantages in the late stages of the game where patience and precision truly shine. Their average moves per win and loss hover around 58, which suggests they're no hurry to finish early — they savor every twist and turn on the board.
With a quirky early resignation rate of just over 1%, they aren’t one to quit without a fight. The comeback rate is an impressive 82.5%, meaning even when down a piece or two, StoneIslandfan channels their inner phoenix and battles back. Their black pieces hold a slight edge in wins over white, highlighting their comfort defending and counterattacking.
Opening Repertoire Highlights
- Rapid: Queen’s Pawn Opening reigns supreme with a confident 53.85% win rate, alongside favorites like the Scandinavian Defense and the trusty King’s Pawn Opening.
- Blitz: An adventurous blend, including a perfect score with the Caro Kann Defense and a love-hate relationship with the “Top Secret” line (low win rate, but high commitment!).
- Daily: Master of the Queen’s Gambit Declined and the ever-reliable Queen’s Pawn Opening, boasting nearly flawless win rates.
Record & Rivals
With almost 70 rapid games played, their overall rapid record is a balanced tale of 39 wins against 46 losses and 7 draws. Blitz and daily results similarly showcase a relentless warrior spirit, emphasizing learning through every game — wins, losses, and those precious unpredictable draws.
Among opponents, horse77x stands out as the most frequent rival with 31 battles on record, a near 50-50 split making it a chess rivalry for the ages. The “ddefeijter” duel series is more tilted, but StoneIslandfan has demonstrated grit, including a recent stunning victory by resignation in a sharp Modern Defense encounter.
Moments of Glory & Laughter
The most recent win was a tactical masterpiece against ddefeijter on May 20, 2025, showcasing a beautiful attack from a Modern Defense setup leading to a forced resignation. Meanwhile, losses sometimes come by unexpected checkmates, reminding us all that even the best explorers walk into traps (and occasionally lose their castles and dignity).
Known for a “tilt factor” of 12, StoneIslandfan keeps things real by embracing ups and downs with good humor — possibly while wearing their namesake brand’s gear, adding fashion points to their chess finesse.
