Profile Summary of uhu1

Meet uhu1, a chess adventurer who has been navigating the checkered battlefield since 2020. With a peak rapid rating of 1193 achieved in November 2020, uhu1 has shown the spirit of a true strategist battling it out on the 64 squares.

A notable aspect of uhu1's style is the fondness for the King's Fianchetto Opening, especially its symmetrical variation, showcasing a preference for solid, flexible structures. With nearly 5,000 games played in this opening and a win rate flirting closely with 50%, uhu1 doesn’t just play openings; they live them.

The Modern Defense with its subtle complexities is another battlefield where uhu1 has mixed it up nearly 4,000 times. Though the win rate is slightly less optimistic here (~46.57%), it testifies to the will to take on sharp and dynamic positions without blinking.

Rapid games are the playground for uhu1, with over 11,800 recorded results: 5,630 wins, 5,685 losses, and 531 draws. Not just a number cruncher, their longest winning streak of 11 games shows uhu1 can find excellent form, while a tough 12-game losing streak reminds us that even mighty knights stumble. And yes, that tilt factor of 12 keeps things interesting — chess is a mental game, after all.

The favored time to unlock those tactical muscles? At the serene 05:00 AM hour, when the world sleeps and pawns tremble. It's also the hour where their comeback rate dazzles at 84.46%, proving they never admit defeat easily.

Now, uhu1 isn’t just about early quits; with an Early Resignation Rate of only 2.27%, they fight most battles to the very last rook drop. Their games tend to be epic battles too — averaging nearly 71 moves per win and almost 59 moves even in defeat. Chess isn’t a sprint here; it’s an intriguing marathon.

Psychological resilience is key, and uhu1’s Win Rate after losing a piece is a solid 44.69%, showing the tenacity to battle back from material disadvantage. However, those oh-so-painful one-sided losses happen only 3.8% of the time, so fear not — this player keeps the fights close.

Some insider tidbits:
- Wins more with White (48.76%) but still holds ground with Black (46.29%).
- Has a penchant for the King's Fianchetto Opening Indian Defense, with a personal best win rate of nearly 57%.
- The average move count suggests the games have drama, tension, and probably a few panicked blunders (who doesn’t?).
- Loves rapid chess but bravely steps into blitz and bullet waters occasionally, hitting peak blitz and bullet ratings slightly above 1030 and 1040 respectively.

Recent battles have been exciting! In one recent game, uhu1 masterfully employed the King's Fianchetto to force their opponent into resigning around move 23 after a precise knight fork check. Whether it’s grinding wins or fighting through tough losses, uhu1 keeps their head in the game.

In short, uhu1 is a determined & imaginative player with a chess journey full of ups, downs, tactical fireworks, and a little bit of early-morning madness. Like a chess detective armed with patience, they enjoy the strategic dance, the feints, the gambits, and always embrace the eternal quest for that elusive checkmate.

“Check yourself before you wreck yourself” might just be their unofficial motto — or maybe it’s just what their opponents whisper after playing them!
