Profile Summary: XCaveat_EmptorX

Meet XCaveat_EmptorX, a chess enthusiast whose game is an intriguing blend of perseverance, tactical comebacks, and occasional early resignations—because even the best need coffee breaks!

Rating Journey

Starting with modest beginnings in blitz around 2020 with ratings hovering in the mid-500s, XCaveat_EmptorX showed steady improvement, breaking into the 900s by 2024 and inching close to 950 in 2025. Bullet ratings tell a more dramatic story, fluctuating wildly but settling comfortably around mid-500s to high 600s with tens of thousands of games played—proving this player certainly loves the adrenaline rush of fast-paced chess!

Daily chess is their calm retreat, boasting peak ratings over 900, with a commendable consistency even in a small sample of games. Rapid games display a rollercoaster ride from the 500s with a steady climb to the 1000+ zone, highlighting steady strategic growth.

Playing Style

With an early resignation rate of about 6.5%, XCaveat_EmptorX knows when to walk away—wasting no time on hopeless positions. Their endgame presence is strong, appearing in over 43% of their games, and they average around 49 moves per win, savoring the fight till the last pawn stands.

Interesting tidbit: they have a nearly perfect track record bouncing back from losing a piece (100% win rate after losing a piece!). Clearly, a fighter who hates to give up. Their comeback rate of roughly 66% means if you think you have them down, think again!

Psychological Resilience

With a tilt factor of 15, XCaveat_EmptorX handles the ups and downs with good humor and grit. The rated-versus-casual win difference (~14%) suggests they bring their A-game when the stakes are higher, proving true chess mettle.

Opponents and Records

With over 1210 wins in blitz and some 2566 wins in bullet, XCaveat_EmptorX has faced a sea of opponents. Sometimes a nemesis, sometimes a conqueror—like their 17.6% win rate against greenxarrow (probably a fierce rival) and a dominating 100% against many others who might want a rematch... or might not.

Prime Time Player

Most successful matches seem to happen late evening hours: 21:00 with a solid 55% win rate, and a sneaky peak at 13:00 hitting 54.5%. Looks like XCaveat_EmptorX does their best thinking either post-lunch or when the day winds down.

Fun Facts

  • Longest winning streak: 16 games—guess someone was on fire!
  • Favorite opening? Top Secret (because mystery wins chess battles).
  • Win rate with White is slightly better (51.9%) than Black (49.3%), so best to avoid giving them White!

In the grand chessboard of life, XCaveat_EmptorX proves to be a resilient, tactical, and occasionally mysterious warrior. Approach with caution, and may your strategies be as clever as theirs—or be prepared to watch your king topple to a relentless foe!
