@Eledef07 and @Moekillz Ignite September 21–27 with Clutch Wins
The Let’s Castle chess club is off to a fiery start for the September 21–27, 2025, Player of the Week race, with @Eledef07
and @Moekillz
racking up crucial points in team matches on Chess.com. As the 2025 season charges toward its December 31 finish, their performances in daily games are shaking up the Player of the Year chase, with @Ydtd’s dominance and @J_Santiago’s blitz prowess still looming large.
On Board 1 in the ongoing The Players Of The World vs. Let’s Castle match, @Eledef07 swept @SharpAditya 2-0, both games ending on September 22 by timeout. In the first, a Réti Opening: Tennison Gambit (1. e4 d5 2. Nf3 dxe4 3. Ng5 Bf5), @SharpAditya’s 2. Nf3
mistake allowed @Eledef07 to seize the pawn 
and control, with no further moves played before the clock ran out. The second, saw The Eledefster unleash THE JOBAVA LONDON (1. d4 d5 2. Nc3 Nf6 3. Bf4 e6 4. Nb5), @SharpAditya timed out after four moves. These wins tie the team match at 2.5–2.5,
boosting @Eledef07’s Player of the Week bid!
Moekillz kicked off the week with a 3-2-0 record, showcasing his “Dominican assassin” flair. He displayed the Jobava London opening as well against @harichess01 (ended September 21), the turning point came at move 28 when @harichess01’s 28… Bxg4 
blunder handed @Moekillz a bishop with 29. Qxg4.
His 34. Bh6+ 
forced resignation, securing a 1-0 team lead against Chess Temple. @Moekillz later earned a split in that series so the team match between Let’s Castle and Chess Temple is currently tied
. Against @ayat1313 in a Pirc Defense: Kholmov System (ended September 21), @Moekillz’s 13… Bg4 and 15… Nd7 blunders allowed @ayat1313’s 16. h5 and 18. Rxd6 to dominate, ending in resignation after 23… fxg6. @Moekillz rebounded in a Queen’s Pawn Opening: Horwitz Defense against @ayat1313 (ended September 21), capitalizing on 17… Qxc3’s mistake with 18. Qxe6+ and a checkmate on move 43 with 43. Rb8#. Finally, in a Queen’s Pawn Opening: Chigorin Variation against @Nkosi05 (ended September 21), @Moekillz’s 15. Qxg6 blunder allowed @Nkosi05’s 15… dxc3 and 21… Nf4 to force resignation. A clutch win against @hlwun1 in a Queen’s Pawn Opening (ended September 21) saw @hlwun1’s 37. b3 and 38. c4 mistakes let @Moekillz’s king and pawns overrun with 44… g4+, securing resignation
With @Eledef07’s 2-0 and @Moekillz’s 3-2, Let’s Castle is firing on all cylinders.
As the Shocktober Tournament and OTB Classical Championship near, the Player of the Week race is anyone’s game—Let’s Castle is ready to rumble!
