Profile Summary: WHOLEEBACH

Meet WHOLEEBACH, a chess enthusiast whose journey on the 64 squares is as colorful as a box of mismatched chess pieces. With a peak daily rating soaring to 503 in May 2025, WHOLEEBACH has demonstrated resilience, determination, and a flair for comedic suffering on the board.

Starting 2024 with a rollercoaster of ratings between 100 and 400, WHOLEEBACH experienced every chess player's nightmare and dream—plenty of losses (126 daily losses) mixed with sweet victories (41 daily wins), and a stubborn refusal to settle for draws with just 2 in daily play. If perseverance were a chess opening, WHOLEEBACH would play it every game.

Playing Style & Trends

  • Endgame enthusiast: Over half of all games reach the endgame, showing a passion for the tense finale.
  • Early resignation rate: A humble 6.29% proves WHOLEEBACH rarely throws in the towel before the drama unfolds.
  • Average moves per win: About 34 moves—just enough time to brew a cup of coffee.
  • Psychological quirks: Tilt factor is a modest 18, but beware the 2 AM chess spike—WHOLEEBACH's prime time for genius or madness.

Favorite Openings

WHOLEEBACH plays a healthy mix of experimental and classic strategies. The King’s Pawn Opening and the elusive Van t Kruijs Opening are go-to choices, though the win rates around 28% hint at a bold “throw caution to the wind” philosophy. Rapid games reveal a fondness for the Queen’s Pawn Opening, performing better here with a strong 62.5% win rate!

Memorable Moments & Rivals

WHOLEEBACH’s journey is sprinkled with triumphs over familiar opponents like cheleautista and baboupo and learning experiences against tough challengers such as hassancortex. Their most recent daily victory was a brisk affair ending with a classic “won on time” finish in a King’s Pawn Opening. Not to mention the live battles that test nerves and tactics alike!

Climb & Comebacks

Despite some daunting 18-game losing streaks, WHOLEEBACH exhibits an impressive comeback rate of nearly 45% after setbacks, proving true grit. And with tactical awareness shining through, WHOLEEBACH manages to turn around losing positions about 17% of the time, because every chess story needs a comeback arc.

Rapid and Blitz

While rapid games reveal a taste for aggressive play and better success, blitz remains a challenging frontier with only a handful of games played and a current peak rating of 151. Perhaps the rapid format suits WHOLEEBACH’s style of thinking fast and confusing opponents (and themselves) in equal measure.

All in all, WHOLEEBACH is a vibrant personality on Chess.com, mixing passion, perseverance, and a touch of chaos. Whether you face them for the first time or the fortieth, expect a game full of surprises and a challenger who never gives up—even if their pieces occasionally seem to wander off the board on their own.
