Recent Game Feedback

Your recent bullet wins demonstrate strong positional understanding and endgame technique. For example, in your victory against yoni, you effectively transitioned to a winning passed pawn and capitalized on your opponent's time pressure to convert the game. In multiple wins, your usage of the King's Indian Attack setup has provided you with solid middlegame play and attacking chances.

In your recent losses, common themes include time scrambles and tactical oversight, often against aggressive and prepared opponents. In particular, watch for tactical vulnerabilities in open positions and ensure you keep track of your king safety when under pressure. Some losses ended by checkmate or quick tactical strikes, which indicates a need to remain vigilant for opponent threats especially in the middlegame.
