About Turokol

Meet Turokol, a rapid chess enthusiast whose journey is as dynamic as their rating swings! Starting from a modest rapid rating of around 220 in early 2024, Turokol has shown impressive resilience and growth, peaking at an impressive 816 by March 2025. It's clear that this player doesn’t just play chess — Turokol lives it, breathing life into every pawn push and knight leap.

Despite the rollercoaster nature of their rapid ratings, ranging from humble beginnings to the peaks of 700+ territory, Turokol maintains an almost even win-loss record in rapid games, fighting tooth and nail with a nearly 50% success rate over thousands of battles. Just like a grandmaster of comebacks, they boast a remarkable comeback rate of 66.09% — so if you knock down one of their pieces, beware: Turokol might just turn the tables on you!

Their playing style reveals a true strategist who doesn’t shy away from fights lasting about 55 moves on average. An early resignation rate of about 6.18% suggests they're not the type to quit easy, a quality verified by their frequent endgames — nearly every other game sails into deep waters where patience and skill rule.

Openings: The Mystery and the Classics

Turokol has a penchant for the "Top Secret" openings (okay, maybe not so secret anymore with nearly 3,000 games logged!). They mix strategy with a dash of unpredictability, but they also wield classics like the Scandinavian Defense with an impressive 63.64% win rate in rapid, and have a sharp edge in openings like the Caro-Kann Defense and Pirc Defense.

Not Just a Rapid Player

While rapid is their battleground of choice, Turokol also dabbles in bullet and daily games, showing versatility even if bullet remains somewhat of a challenge with a 27% win rate. Daily games show a balanced approach, much like a chess noir protagonist pacing their moves thoughtfully.

When to Challenge Turokol

Fun fact: Turokol's best hour to play is at 2 AM! Maybe it's the moonlight, or just the quiet serenity of the world sleeping while they conquer the chessboard. With a tilt factor of 9, they’re mostly composed — but don’t be too cocky; a bad blunder might bring out some fiery reactions.

In a Nutshell

If you’re looking for a challenger who combines perseverance, strategic depth, and a sprinkle of endgame wizardry, Turokol is your player.
