Xentra (aka WGMXen)
Born from a fusion of tactical brilliance and questionable meme references, Xentra has been carving a path through the chess world with a blend of gritty endgame mastery and lightning-fast bullet games. With a peak rapid rating soaring close to 1800 in 2025, this player’s journey has been anything but dull—starting in 2023 at an average rapid rating just shy of 1000 and skyrocketing to an impressive 1774 two years later.
Style & Strengths
Xentra’s gameplay is like a finely brewed cup of coffee: strong, energizing, and occasionally wakes you up with a brutal early resignation. With a low early resignation rate of just 2.2%, they prefer to grind through endgames, boasting an endgame frequency of 63.5% and averaging 66 moves per win. When behind, watch out—comeback rate hits a staggering 80%, and they never lose after losing a piece (win rate after losing piece: 100%). Basically, quit while you’re behind? Not a chance.
Formats and Ratings
- Rapid: From a humble beginning at 994 in 2023 to a career-best 1774 in 2025.
- Bullet: A terrifying beast with a jump from 1138 in 2023 to smashing over 2100 in 2025.
- Daily & Blitz: Steady, strategic, and consistent, maintaining ratings around 1200 and 1200 respectively in the latest year.
Favorite Openings
Xentra loves a good challenge—and their opening repertoire proves it:
- Rapid: Nimzowitsch Defense Scandinavian Advance Variation (win rate: 65%), Queen’s Pawn Chigorin Variation (65.6%), Three Knights Opening (60%).
- Bullet: Caro-Kann Defense Main Line (59%), Indian Game (62%), French Defense Rubinstein Variation (60.8%).
- Daily: A perfect 100% win rate with Indian Game and Ruy Lopez Old Steinitz Defense—talk about reliable!
Psychological Profile
With a tilt factor of 11, Xentra keeps cool enough not to throw their mouse across the room after a bad move, but with a Rated vs Casual win difference of -24.33%, appearances might be deceiving. Maybe casual games are too chilled to spark the fire? Also, their all-time longest winning streak is an impressive 17 games, currently riding a 5-game streak—a player in form or just lucky? You decide.
Fun Facts
- Wins around 55% of games with White but drops slightly with Black (48.6%). The age-old struggle for initiative!
- Responds well to playing late at night and early morning—win rates peak between 5 AM and 7 AM and again in the early evening.
- Has played nearly 5000 Bullet games, with a win/loss record of 2235/1989—a true veteran of the fast and furious format.
If Xentra was a chess piece, they'd probably be a knight: unpredictable, tricky, and full of surprises. Keep an eye on this player—both for their games and their next epic comeback!
