Profile Summary: tahdae

Meet tahdae – a chess player whose rating journey is as thrilling as a roller coaster ride... but with brains! Starting off at a modest Rapid rating of 421 in late 2024, tahdae swiftly climbed the ranks, hitting an impressive peak of 875 by May 2025. Not bad for someone who clearly enjoys the strategic dance of chess over brute-force blitzing alone!

tahdae’s love affair with the Rapid format is evident: they've logged over 500 rapid games with a solid positive win-loss record (276 wins to 200 losses). Blitz and Bullet chess are also in the mix, though with slightly more humble ratings (peaking at 498 in Blitz and 444 in Bullet). It’s clear tahdae prefers carefully brewed contemplations over caffeine-fueled bullet brawls.

Speaking of playstyle, tahdae is not a quitter. Early resignations are rare (5.62%), and they fight through endgames with a respectable frequency (over 57% of their games reach the riveting finale). These late-game battles average around 56 moves per win—plenty of thinking, plotting, and occasionally muttering to themselves, no doubt.

With a comeback rate near 70%, tahdae is the embodiment of resilience. Losing a piece? No problem—there's almost a 50/50 shot they turn the tables. Even when the chips are down, tahdae refuses to hand over the victory on a silver platter.

Opening Secrets...

tahdae’s opening repertoire could be classified as delightfully mysterious. Their most-played opening is intriguingly labeled "Top Secret"; possibly a disguise for the classic King's Pawn Game? They shine with a 53.4% win rate here. Other favorites include the French Defense with a near perfect 100% win record in the Kings Indian Attack variation—because who doesn’t love a sneaky defense that keeps opponents guessing?

Best Time to Confuse Opponents

Not a morning person? No worries! tahdae’s peak performance happens around noon, boasting an 80% win rate at 12:00 PM. Oddly enough, the victory rate at 2 PM is just 20%, so watch out if you challenge them then—they might be off hunting for their afternoon snack.

Battle Tales

tahdae recently played a brilliant victory against sailorsmonkey, wrapping up the game by resignation after an intense Kings Pawn Opening battle.

Of course, not every story is a happy one—just the day before, Joelgoncalves14 delivered a merciless checkmate, reminding tahdae that even the mighty stumble.

Psychological Quirks & Trivia

Their "tilt factor" hovers around 7%, meaning tahdae occasionally blinks after tough games but bounces right back—true poker face material with a knightly twist. Intriguingly, phemonenon shows tahdae does better against lower-rated opponents, winning over 86% of these skirmishes, but struggles when the ratings are higher, with a 76% loss rate against stronger foes. Classic underdog story with a hint of “David vs. Goliath” excitement!
