Hi Batsaikhan Tserendorj 👋

Congratulations on maintaining a 2300+ blitz level! Your recent games show a fearless, dynamic style that often overwhelms opponents—especially in sharp Sicilian and King’s-Indian–type structures. Below is a brief performance snapshot, followed by targeted advice to push you toward the next rating band.

Your recent activity

• Peak blitz rating: 2408 (2020-06-30)
• Typical session rhythm:
• Day-to-day consistency:

What you already do well

1. Opening versatility  ▶ You handle both sides of main-line Sicilians (Najdorf, Dragon, Lowenthal) and 1.d4 Indian setups with confidence. In the win vs. raimon_campeon you smoothly switched from a sideline (4.f3) into a powerful central bind.
   
   
2. Tactical eyesight  ▶ Rapid recognition of forks, skewers and clearance ideas. The Nf6–d5–f6–e8 sequence in the same game is an excellent miniature on using a knight as a “Swiss-army knife.” zwischenzug opportunities rarely escape you.
   
   
3. Practical aggression  ▶ You are happy to march the h-pawn in Grünfelds and King’s Indians or meet 1.e4 with immediate …c5 …g6. This creates uncomfortable positions for many blitz opponents.
   
   

Key growth areas

1. Time-management
   • Four of your last six losses were on time from drawable/defensible positions.
   • Consider a “passport” rule: never let yourself drop under 30 sec before move 25 in 3-minute games. If still in book, bank time for the complications later.
   
   
2. Anti-Sicilian structure handling
   • In the loss to masterhec (Adams Attack, 6.h3 g4) you entered an equal endgame but fell behind on development and clock.
   • Study model games where Black meets g4 with …h6 or transposes to a Hedgehog instead of immediate …d5. A small repertoire tune-up will prevent opponents from steering you into sidelines you dislike.
   
   
3. Endgame conversion
   • Against notagmbruh you had ♗ + passed pawn vs. ♗ and still flagged.
   • Regularly drill technical endings (rook-and-pawn vs. rook, queen vs. pawn on 7th, etc.). Faster technique = more clock for defence.
   
   
4. Defensive alertness after pawn storms
   • The Dragon loss to jerryberrytv arose because 24…Qxh4 grabbed a pawn while your back rank collapsed.
   • Before launching or accepting a pawn storm, run a quick “king safety checklist”: piece defenders, flight squares, and opponent’s counter-sacrifices.

Final encouragement

Your attacking flair is already master-level; polishing clock control and defensive technique will add the missing points. Stick to the plan above and breaking 2400 blitz is realistic within a few months.

Good luck, and enjoy the grind! – Your Chess Coach
