Profile Summary: TomcatSpeed

TomcatSpeed is the kind of chess player who wouldn't just chase the mouse, but chase every pawn, knight, and queen with lightning speed. Starting as a fledgling strategist in 2020 with modest ratings around 900 in Blitz and Bullet, this feline fury has relentlessly sharpened his claws over the years.

By 2025, TomcatSpeed boasts impressive peak ratings: Blitz 1402, Bullet 1607, and a fiery Rapid rating hovering above 1300. Daily rated games seem to be his chill zone, with steady improvement and a solid 960 rating.

Playing Style & Strengths

  • Endgame Whisperer: TomcatSpeed loves a long fight, playing an average of 65 moves per win and 71 moves per loss. His endgame frequency is a notable 71.5%, proving he’s not just about quick tricks but also solid finishers.
  • Tactical Beast: With a staggering 94.96% win rate after losing a piece, and a fierce comeback rate of 77.54%, this player bounces back harder than a cat catching a laser pointer.
  • Psychological Warrior: Despite a tilt factor of 17 (hey, nobody’s purrfect), TomcatSpeed’s rated vs casual win difference sits at a respectable 27.54%, showing he turns up when it counts.

Quirks & Fun Facts

  • TomcatSpeed's longest winning streak stands at a mighty 22 games, with a current streak of 15 — that’s a lot of purrs and checkmates!
  • Playing at unconventional hours seems to pay off: 5 AM yields a 60.53% win rate, while a nap at 6 AM might be why he only wins 22.22% then.
  • He’s partial to “Top Secret” openings, with nearly half of his games in Blitz, Bullet, and Rapid played with this mysterious strategy, keeping opponents guessing.
  • Wins almost equally as White (about 50%) but struggles a bit as Black (44%), so TomcatSpeed might like starting with the initiative — or just prefers the sunny side of the board.

With thousands of games logged and a reputation for never giving up (those resignations only happen 5.81% of the time), TomcatSpeed is a tenacious competitor who’s ready to pounce on any opportunity — sometimes with a sly grin (and sometimes a mischievous twitch of the tail!). Whether it’s bullet speed or rapid tactics, this player’s a force to be reckoned with on the virtual chessboard.
