Profile Summary: ThulasiTholanur

Meet ThulasiTholanur, a rapid chess player whose rating has danced gracefully between the highs of 1126 and the humbling dips around 900. With over 3,000 rapid games under their belt, this formidable competitor boasts a win count of 1,347—slightly outweighed by 1,367 losses—plus a handful of thrilling draws (86 to be exact), proving that in chess, every battle counts, win or lose!

Known for a comeback rate of 76%, ThulasiTholanur never truly throws in the towel, except maybe when the opponent forces a resignation—which happens quite often, as 793 wins ended that way. They also have a sharp tactical mind, winning nearly half the time even after losing a piece. But beware: a tilt factor of 10 means the stress of the game sometimes makes this player rethink reality, probably blaming that unexpected blunder on a sudden room temperature change.

When it comes to opening choices, this maestro shows a fondness for the classics, frequently engaging in battles with the King's Pawn Opening (King's Knight Variation) and the Scandinavian Defense, enjoying a respectable win rate of around 55-57% in these lines. Less successful but ever persistent, openings like the Italian Game and the Four Knights Game Italian Variation serve as favorite challenges to crack.

Style-wise, ThulasiTholanur prefers the long haul: with an average winning game running 65 moves, they’re clearly not in a hurry. This patient strategist reaches the endgame frequently (63.5% of their games), showing true endurance and love for the intricate dance of kings and pawns.

Most wins come when playing white (a modest 51% win rate), but don’t underestimate their black pieces, which still yield a respectable 45% wins. However, when matched against stronger foes, victories drop to 18%, reminding us all that grandmaster dreams require a bit more practice... or maybe just some extra coffee.

When and where to challenge ThulasiTholanur? They shine best around midnight (especially at 00:00), where their win rate reaches a perfect 100%—clearly, the moonlight fuels their chess genius. Weekends are decent too, but no day is safe if you want a match!

Their recent games tell stories of exciting struggles: a recent triumphant victory ended in a smooth checkmate against an opponent rated just below 1,000, illustrating their knack for tactical precision. But losses also spiced their journey, including a tough match where resignation was the final move after a grueling 44-move duel.

Off the board, you might find ThulasiTholanur studying the King's Pawn Opening King’s Knight Variation or bravely exploring the Four Knights Game Spanish Variation. Their chess journey is anything but dull.

In summary: ThulasiTholanur is a dedicated, resilient rapid chess player with a love for long, strategic battles, a flair for classic openings, and a midnight-magic touch. Expect fiery games, a fierce fighting spirit, and the occasional tilt-induced sigh—chess is as much a mental marathon as it is a game of kings!
