Tharakan Tharakanjenil

Also known by the mysterious handle wdbcdci, Tharakan Tharakanjenil is a chess enthusiast whose journey resembles a rollercoaster of ratings, comebacks, and occasional blunders. Starting from a humble Daily rating of 341 in 2023 (with just one game under his belt), Tharakan quickly escalated his prowess across multiple time controls, reaching impressive heights by 2025.

Rise Through the Ranks

From rapid fire Bullet games to calculated Daily matches, Tharakan has shown versatility. His Rapid rating soared from 595 in 2023 to a peak of 1282 in early 2024, then steadied around a robust 1096 in 2025. Meanwhile, his Blitz performances dazzled crowds with a peak of 1006 rating. His persistence in Bullet matches is commendable, tallying over 600 games in 2025 with a respectable 748 rating, proving speed with strategy is his calling card.

Winning Streaks & Tactical Brilliance

Speaking of streaks, Tharakan's longest winning streak clocks a solid 12 games, while currently riding a small but confident streak of 2 wins. Always a fighter, he boasts a remarkable 100% win rate after losing a piece—because why surrender when you’re down a knight or two? With a comeback rate north of 73%, this player refuses to be counted out early.

Playing Style

Tharakan prefers to engage deep into the game, with an average of nearly 59 moves per win and taking it further in losses—averaging over 70 moves before conceding that the opponent outplayed him. Endgames are his playground (appearing in about 67% of matches), signaling a patient, strategic chess aficionado. While his win rates slightly favor playing white (52.24%) over black (47.56%), he is equally crafty with both.

Opening Secrets & Opponents

His opening repertoire remains a "Top Secret" well-guarded mystery, but it yields a winning rate consistently above 50% across all formats — even a dazzling 75% in daily games, which might be some sort of wizardry. His most frequently encountered rivals like skh007 and ap8055 have seen mixed fortunes, but Tharakan keeps them guessing every game.

Fun Facts & Quirks

  • Tharakan’s favorite hours to play and win? Afternoon delight vibes stuck at 13:00 to 14:00 with win rates hovering above 54%.
  • Late-night sessions seem tricky with a steep drop in win rate around midnight (a mere 33%) — maybe chess and sleep deprivation don’t mix well.
  • Despite a solid rating climb, he’s got a modest early resignation rate of just 2.07%, proving he’s not one to throw in the towel prematurely.
  • His "Tilt Factor" scores a casual 9 — indicating even grandmasters can have their off days, but it never lasts long!

Summary

Tharakan Tharakanjenil is a tenacious and adaptable competitor, who combines strategic depth and tactical resilience in every match. Whether blitzing through games or plotting endgame masterpieces, he embodies the spirit of chess: relentless, cunning, and ready for a comeback.
