Profile: Wizard498
Known in chess circles as the enigmatic Wizard498, this player might not wield a wand, but their rapid and blitz battles are nothing short of magical… sometimes with tricks, sometimes with treats. Starting off with a modest Rapid rating of 598 in 2023, Wizard498 swiftly conjured up improvements, peaking at 650 in 2024 before a bit of a rollercoaster ride settled them back to 562 in 2025. Their Blitz rating tells a similar tale: flashes of brilliance intertwined with puzzles to solve.
Wizard498's record boasts a combined 43 wins in rapid and blitz, but watch out — with a tilt factor of 7, a few losses can trigger a storm in this cauldron of a player. Still, their tactical prowess is undeniable: an impressive 72% comeback rate and a flawless 100% win record after losing a piece reveal a fighter who refuses to surrender to the dark arts of defeat.
Opponents beware! While Wizard498 has a respectable 42% win rate with the mysterious opening dubbed "Top Secret", their spell work against certain rivals is legendary: some opponents see a perfect 100% win rate vanish before their eyes, while others manage to evade the curse.
Their style? Patient and persistent — with an average of 59 moves in victories, it’s clear that Wizard498 enjoys weaving long stories on the board rather than quick incantations. White pieces yield better success (around 46%), but even playing Black, this wizard manages to pull tricks out of the hat about a third of the time.
Timing matters too: Sunday and Friday battles tend to charm out the best results, with a perfect Sunday win rate and a strong Friday showing, while evenings bring a mix of brilliance (19:00 hours = 100% wins) and mystery (20:00 hours = 0%). Clearly, the magic is real but unpredictable.
Whether battling the likes of myavuztrabzon or trabzonli6161616161, or mesmerizing fresh foes, Wizard498 crafts each game like a spellbinding tale — sometimes triumphant, sometimes instructive, but always memorable.
In short: a chess player who proves that even wizards have their off days — but never their off moves.
