A discerning fan of the King's Pawn Opening and their somewhat cheeky go-to, the Englund Gambit (where they maintain a win rate above 50%!), wlch mixes classical wisdom with unpredictable flair. Rapid and blitz games see them favoring Scandinavian and Center Game lines, while bullet games reveal a love for sharp Kings Knight Variations.
