White
Do you win more with white or black?
OTB my win rate is really weird. It's something like:
White win = 50%
White draw = 35%
White loss = 15%
Black win = 20%
Black draw = 20%
Black loss = 60%
But online I don't think there's much of a difference. Slightly better with white

why is the draw percent so high?
White probably, because I feel great while playing with white and gives me the feeling of attack, whereas with black I try to defend all the time,

YO HOW? DRAW RATE = 20-35%? YOU SERIOUS?
Lmao I had an otb tournament where I drew all 5 of my games once
I play really solidly and don't like taking risks. Plenty of draws against titled players too so that's nice
I don't play otb. Here in rapid 58% win with white 35% loss, 44% win with black 46% loss. In blitz 41% win with white 53% loss, 55% win with black 43% loss. Lol apparently somehow I do better with black in blitz, and it's quite long tendency, on lichess too
My win rate percentages as of this writing are as follows:
90 Days
White: 39%/11%/50% (I've kinda sucked as of late.)
Black: 63%/5%/32% (The Sicilian Defense rarely does me wrong!)
All Time
White: 53%/4%/43% (Typical, I suppose.)
Black: 54%/4%/42% (It's real close!)
I definitely win more with white, everything feels better right off the start, I think statistics say white has a slight advantage from the beginning, because you move first, but I think its different for people who tend to play more defense vs attacking, I feel that when I'm black that I want to be more defensive and cautioned at the beginning, say 14 moves....
