Player Profile: xcoalx

Meet xcoalx, a chess enthusiast whose rating history is nothing short of a dynamic evolutionary tale in the ecosystem of blitz, bullet, and rapid games. Emerging into the chess wild in 2023 with a modest bullet rating of 466 and rapid soaring at 743, xcoalx has since undergone quite the metamorphosis, reaching a peak rapid rating of 835 by 2025. Truly a creature of adaptability!

Playing Style & Strategy

With an average moves per win hovering around 57, and a similar count in losses, xcoalx’s games tend to be marathon duels rather than fleeting encounters—a slow burn rather than a quick snap, if you will. This player boasts an impressive comeback rate of nearly 72%, proving resilience worthy of a chessboard chameleon, adapting and thriving even after losing material. Their endgame frequency is a robust 58.5%, showing a penchant for the final act where many games breed their fate.

Interestingly, xcoalx's win rate is slightly better with white pieces (around 51%) than with black (47%), hinting at a subtle preference for going first—every little advantage matters in the jungle of pawns and knights!

Favorite Openings – The Genetic Code of the Game

Like the genome of a master predator, xcoalx’s choice of openings reveals both versatility and specialization:

  • Blitz: Favoring the Giuoco Piano Four Knights Game and Four Knights Italian Variation, boasting win rates over 60%, showing a taste for classical skeletons in the opening repertoire.
  • Bullet: The Bishop’s Opening dominates with a paw-riffic 77% win rate, making it a lethal weapon in lightning-fast duels.
  • Rapid: Strategic choices like the King’s Pawn Opening Kings Knight Variation and the Giuoco Piano Four Knights Game again signify a balanced blend of aggression and development.

Psychological Profile & Performance Traits

xcoalx’s psychological endurance is remarkable with a tilt factor of just 9—far from the reactive neurotic behavior of a startled shrimp. The player consistently bounces back and learns, never succumbing to the stress of sudden losses (one-sided loss rate only 9%). Their early resignation rate is low (4.65%), indicating a fighting spirit that clings to the board like a barnacle to a ship’s hull.

Competitive Record & Opponents

With a combined total of 1,730+ games across all formats, and a near 50% win rate in blitz, xcoalx is no mere plankton drifting in the sea of players. Against recent opponents like hstna and max_a_p, xcoalx maintains a perfect win record—a true apex predator, striking with precision.

Final Notes

In the vast biosphere of chess, xcoalx has carved out a niche as a resilient, versatile, and tactical player. With a solid adaptability gene, a carefully honed opening repertoire, and an endgame strategy that would make even a grandmaster pause and retract their claws, this player is truly one to watch—and maybe even imitate.
