Profile Summary of yoam978
Meet yoam978, a warrior of the 64 squares who has been challenging the mind-bending game of chess since 2010. Starting with modest blitz ratings in the 1200s and 1300s, this player quickly transformed from a hopeful novice to a formidable tactician, pushing his blitz rating beyond an impressive 2400 by 2024!
But don't be fooled by their upward trajectory — yoam978 is the embodiment of endurance and resilience. Their longest winning streak spanned a jaw-dropping 33 games, proving they’re not just here to play, but to dominate! Known for an extremely patient brand of chess, they average about 80 moves per win, meaning they like to savor every sweet victory — or perhaps intimidate opponents with their marathon sessions.
Yoam978 is no stranger to all time controls: their bullet games number in the tens of thousands, with a punchy average bullet rating pushing toward the 2500+ mark, often claiming brilliant comebacks with an amazing 88.88% comeback rate. When they lose a piece, watch out! Their win rate afterwards is a flawless 100%, because giving up early is just not their style. Still, they keep their cool on the battlefield—with a tilt factor of just 14, proving that rage quitting is not in their grandmaster vocabulary.
This player is also quite the well-rounded contender, comfortable across blitz, bullet, daily, and rapid, sporting decent win rates even in the slower daily games (over 60%!), yet they still like to get their adrenaline fix in fast-paced bullet matches. Early resignations are a rare sight here, accounting for only 0.42% of games, evidence that yoam978 is a persistent gladiator who fights until the bitter end.
Preferred openings remain mysterious, as their opening repertoire is classified as “Top Secret” — a chess enigma wrapped in a gambit! Their playstyle reveals a master of long games and endgame finesse with endgame frequency exceeding 82%, making yoam978 a patient guardian of the final phase in the royal battle.
When does yoam978 strike? Their peak hours are surprisingly normal, but with a tilt-resistant mind, they win most often late in the evening and early at dawn. Perhaps the nocturnal quiet sharpens their chess wit—or maybe it’s all the coffee and late night snacks fueling unstoppable tactics!
Off the board, yoam978 could be the type who chuckles at blunders, and beyond the screen, probably the life of any party... or the stealthy prankster who rearranges the pieces on your board while you’re away. Regardless, anyone lucky enough to face yoam978 can expect a battle of wits, patience, and more than a few surprises.
In short: A chess gladiator, a comeback king, and a secretive strategist - yoam978 keeps opponents guessing and fans cheering!
