Racing Kings Shield Winners:
IMakeManyMistakes (293) won November's Shield, and it wasn't close. He destroyed second place, fatherwar587 (205), by 88 points, taking home his 4th Shield. His performance wasn't anything short of great, with a performance of 2333, and a win rate of 70%. Arjan_chess2 takes the victory in December! This time, it was close. Second place, aliakbar_2025, trailed 8 points behind Arjan's 275. A very good Shield, especially by Seth and QED who had a 2501 and 2524 performances, respectively.

News

The RKWC is officially over! Natso (no surprise) wins the 2025 RKWC, being the first winner to have won a World Championship of a different variant as well! Meanwhile, R2300 still hasn't received his trophy that was due in 2024! These tournaments are a good way to show that rating doesn't define your skill level.
