Haphazardly with occasions of good luck? Oops, not an option.

Oportunist.

I think the concept a that anyone under 2200 has a style of play is most silly and pretentious.
Even at highest levels, no one can force a style on another player.

I don't know. How can I know this? Maybe I can some direction to work towards!

"I've always believed that playing "conservative" "defensive" "drawish" chess is inherently inferior to playing the best move you can in any given situation"
I guess Petrosian was world champion for 6 years because his moves were inferior.

I said dynamic, because you never know if my next move is going to be brilliant or a blunder...

What about "either I pwn my opponent with mad skills or my opponent pwns me with mad skills"

I guess the word that called out most to me is "dynamic"
I've always believed that playing "conservative" "defensive" "drawish" chess is inherently inferior to playing the best move you can in any given situation, if your playing style doesn't involve you making the moves that give you the best shot of winning, you should reevaluate your playing style. I typically place positional advantages in front of material ones; if you aren't on the offensive, you aren't winning.

Dynamic, at least I try to play like that ...

Style is an illusion.
markstrange
All of them, the best games I play involve most if not all styles, used by both opponents.

Intuitive, even though my instinct sometimes fails me.

You left out "bumbling." That's me.
