Profile Summary: Zbgn
Meet Zbgn, a rapid chess enthusiast whose moves zip across the board almost as fast as their rating climbs and dips! Kicking off 2024 with a modest rapid rating flirting around the low 600s, Zbgn showed remarkable resilience and improvement, rocketing to a peak rapid rating of 882 by May 2025. That's not just progress; that's a chess rocket launch fueled by strategic cafes and possibly caffeine.
A Glance at the Stats
- Total Rapid Games Played: Over 1,500 games (and counting!) with a nearly even split between wins and losses—695 wins to 645 losses and a sprinkle of draws to keep things mysterious.
- Blitz and Daily: Blitz is an occasional playground for Zbgn, with fewer matches but a fierce 5–9 win-loss record. Daily chess seems like a test of patience here—two losses, but hey, who's counting?

- Notorious Losing Streak: A tough 12 in a row—because even the best have their "coffee spill on the keyboard" days.
Openings of Choice & Mastery
Zbgn fancies the classic allure of the King's Pawn Opening, engaging in this over 190 times in rapid games with a respectable 54% win rate—sometimes cheeky, sometimes confident.
The Four Knights Game Scotch Variation reveals a fondness for rich, strategic battles where Zbgn’s win rate peaks around a classy 55%. Though the Scotch Variation Accepted seems to have thrown a few curveballs, this player’s journey is full of learning and adaptation.
On blitz boards, Zbgn sprinkles a mix of openings from the Vienna Game Max Lange Defense to Queens Pawn variations, showcasing versatility and a taste for adventure.
Playing Style & Quirks

Average game lengths hover around 54 moves regardless of win or loss, indicating thoughtful, possibly marathon matches rather than quick-fire Blitz brawls.
Interestingly, the best time of day to challenge Zbgn's patience and prowess might be around 1 AM. Night owls and insomniac strategists, beware!
When white, Zbgn has a slightly better record (around 52%), but black pieces don’t mean they're backing down either.
Memorable Games & Highlights
In May 2025, Zbgn dazzled with a swift, surgical checkmate after just four moves, using the classic Scholar’s Mate (1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6 4.Qxf7#)—sometimes the simplest tricks are the deadliest.
Another impressive victory came with a meticulous endgame checkmate, demonstrating that patience and precision pay off.
But hey, even chess heroes face defeats. Recent losses were against highly skilled opponents who managed to spot the cracks. These losses only fuel Zbgn's drive to come back stronger—and sharper.
