That rating places the bot in super-grandmaster, near engine-level territory, where it plays close to theoretically perfect chess. As white, it favors the [Queen's Gambit](/resources/openings/queens-gambit), steering games toward rich middlegames rather than early trades. Its repertoire also draws on the Indian Game mainlines and Ruy Lopez structures, reflecting a preference for keeping tension on the board. Opponents can expect a relentless, attacking style that searches constantly for initiative and punishes slow or passive play with precise, often sharp tactical blows.",null,"legend_alekhine","France","fr","33476adaf474a6818093644c65295d52e02e4feb0a2934b98695ef06e0fed3c1","2026-10-05",3259,"json",[15,18,21],{"question":16,"answer":17},"What rating is Alekhine?","Alekhine carries a Chessiverse rating of 3259, placing it at a super-grandmaster, engine-tier level of play.
