Player Profile: Xayf

Meet Xayf, a chess player whose journey on the 64 squares has been as fascinating as a well-fought Sicilian Defense! Starting humbly in 2011 with a bullet rating under 1100, Xayf has steadily climbed the ranks to become a true force in faster time controls, boasting a peak bullet rating north of 2584 in 2025. Not one to shy away from intense tactical battles, Xayf exhibits a sensational 100% win rate after losing a piece—apparently, giving up material is just part of the master plan.

With a penchant for bullet and blitz, Xayf’s blistering play style involves lots of moves—averaging around 82 moves per win, which is impressive considering so many players prefer the quick knockout. They like to stick it out until the very end, with their games often lasting nearly the entire clock (hence an 83.9% endgame frequency). That's patience and stamina wrapped in fun-sized fashion!

Known for exploiting the secrets (an opening aptly named “Top Secret” with over 79,000 games played!), Xayf keeps opponents guessing and queens trembling. And if things get rough? No problem—there’s a 90% comeback rate to keep the drama alive. For a player who started on humble beginnings, Xayf now dances among the bullet titans with the poise of a seasoned blitz fanatic.

When it comes to daily chess, Xayf might be a bit of a ghost, playing almost exclusively in the breathless world of rapid-fire bullet and blitz. Yet their play spans all hours and days, with an odd preference for small-hour magic—morning to midnight, Xayf’s sword swings sharp, even if the occasional sleepy knight seems to transition to a pawn (*or two*).

Warning to challengers: Xayf's psychological resilience is solid with a tilt factor of only 17, meaning if you manage to rattle them, it’s probably because you’re doing something extraordinary… or they finally let a blunder slip.

In the end, Xayf's profile reads like a tale of steady growth, fierce tactical awareness, and a love for the fast-paced pulse of online chess warfare. Expect excitement, clever ploys, occasional blunders, and mostly, pure chess entertainment whenever you cross swords with this bullet maestro.
