Profile Summary: TxPaiN

Meet TxPaiN, a rapidly evolving chess aficionado whose love for the game is only matched by their rollercoaster rating journey. While not yet storming the upper echelons of chess ratings, TxPaiN’s stats paint the picture of a determined gladiator on the 64-square battlefield.

Playing Style & Tactics

Known for an endgame frequency of 67%, TxPaiN is no stranger to long battles, patiently grinding opponents down for the win after an average of 64 moves per victory. Early resignations occur in about 8% of games – perhaps when the chess gods are not smiling – but don’t let that fool you. The comeback rate is an impressive 65%, proving resilience is their middle name.

Openings — A Smorgasbord of Surprises

TxPaiN doesn’t stick to just one opening; instead, they experiment across the board. Some favorites include:

• Reti Opening – wins 67% of games here. A solid choice for a crafty start.
• Van Geet Opening – a 50% win rate, showing adaptability to less common openings.
• Mieses Opening – another 50% win rate, keeping opponents guessing.
• ...and even dabbling in the Alekhine's Defense, however it’s a tough nut with just 25% wins in rapid play.

Battle Record & Rivalries

With a nearly even rapid record (73 wins, 76 losses, 25 draws), TxPaiN fights fiercely across the ranks. Notable opponents include txretr0 (the “most played” nemesis), where TxPaiN holds a respectable 51% win rate, and emoryherpichtate, a contender they’ve defeated 80% of the time.

Time of Day Wizardry

The mornings at 6 AM seem to be the sweet spot for TxPaiN, scoring the highest win rates (67%) in that hour. Late afternoon and evening are also strong with decent win percentages around 18:00 and 20:00 hours.

Personality in Play

TxPaiN exhibits a tilt factor of 6, which roughly translates to "occasional dramatic sighs and minor keyboard frustrations," but also a fantastic ability to bounce back without throwing the board. Their paradoxical charm? While dominating against lower-rated foes with a 72% win rate, the big guns tend to humble them—only about 10% success against above-rated players.

Summary

In all, TxPaiN is a fighter with passion, willing to try quirky openings, stick it out in long endgames, and keep coming back stronger after setbacks. With a love for bullet and a willingness to experiment, it’s only a matter of time before TxPaiN transmutes that pain into chess glory.
