Profile Summary: wizardatwork

Nickname: wizardatwork
Chess Rating Journey: A shooter in the Bullet arena, a contender in Blitz, a fighter in Rapid, and a patient strategist in Daily games. Since 2014, wizardatwork has been climbing the ladder, peaking just above 2000 in Bullet and 2142 in Blitz—because quick fingers make magic happen, but slow cooking is also an art!

Playing Style & Stats

  • Prefers the fast-paced excitement of Bullet with an average rating around 1800 and a commendable long winning streak of 16 games. A wizard indeed, sometimes making blunders disappear!
  • Blitz games are where wizardatwork really shines, pushing ratings past 1900, even reaching a max of 2142. Always ready to whip up a tactical melee—or a quick blitzkrieg.

  • Psychologically, this player admits to a modest "tilt factor" of 41%, proving even wizards lose their cool sometimes—but bounce back with a nearly 90% comeback rate. No rook is left behind!

An impressive WinRateByHourOfDay peaks at 51.33% at 4 AM—clearly this sorcerer works best in the witching hour when the opponent’s minds are foggy.
While the Early Resignation Rate is less than 1%, their average game lengths suggest a patient player who fights until the last square is claimed.

Personality & Fun Facts

A name that says it all: wizardatwork doesn’t just play chess, but conjures its intricate dances of disbelief and triumph. Are those magic wands? Nope, just fast wrists and sharp minds.
Known for patience and endurance, this player showcases that even if you’re tempted to resign early, great payoff comes from battles that stretch long—plus a comeback rate close to perfect. Until the last pawn, castling is his favorite kind of fireworks!
Despite the fierce battle tactics, there's a hint of humor in their playstyle — after all, being a wizard means knowing that sometimes the best trick is making your opponent think you know exactly what you're doing!
