Hi ChessDeep, here’s your personalised feedback
What you are already doing well
- Sharp opening repertoire. With White you consistently reach dangerous positions in the Vienna Gambit and Closed Sicilian. Your score against 2200-rated opposition with 1.e4 Nc3 f4 is excellent. Keep nurturing this line—opponents often mis-handle the early f-pawn thrust.
- Piece activity & tactical alertness. In your win versus levisvk you seized the initiative with …Nd4 and …d4, then converted by coordinating queen & rook pressure (see PGN below). These striking, forcing decisions are a recurring strength.
- Practical mindset in bullet. You rarely hesitate to simplify into clearly winning king-and-pawn endgames or to force perpetual checks when down on the clock. This awareness of practical chances is a must in 1-minute chess.
Quick data glance

When you win most:
Consistency by day:Opportunities to improve
- Time management. Four of your last six losses (e.g. vs titlednottilted and victorag) were flagged positions. You were still better or equal on the board but down 10-15 s. Incorporate deliberate Premove sequences for forced recaptures and develop an “auto-pilot” checklist for safe moves when under 10 s.
- King safety when you have the attack. In the loss to ivofresns (diagrammed below) your own king stayed on the back rank while you pushed pawns. Black’s counter-punch …Qxd3 and …f4 came with tempo and you had no luft. When you play the Vienna, spend a tempo on h3 or g4 only after castling.
- Converting advantages. Several games reach ‑5 or better (Stockfish) yet slip away because you play “one more” flashy move instead of a quiet consolidator. Train the habit of asking “Is there a simpler path?”—especially after winning material. Conversion drills in puzzle rush survival mode can help.
- Broadening Black repertoire. The King’s Indian served you well, but versus stronger players you are drifting into passive positions after d4 c4. Spend a session on the Grünfeld or a solid 1…d5 Queen’s Gambit set-up so you can choose based on opponent style.
Illustrative moments
1. Successful strike (from your win vs LeviSvK)
Notice how quickly your heavy pieces reached the open c-file once you fixed Black’s pawn on c6. A textbook illustration of seizing the only open file.
2. Critical error (loss vs Ivofresns)
The loose pawn push 22.b4 weakened both b- and d-files. After 24…Qxd3 Black attacked with checks and you flagged. The key defensive resource was 22.Rd1!, contesting the file before expanding.
Action plan for the next two weeks
- Bullet drill: Play 25 games where you premove every forced recapture (
takes-back). Review the replays to be sure accuracy stays above 90 %. - Slow-game anchor: Schedule three 10|5 games focusing only on king safety. Annotate moments you were tempted to launch an attack without completing development.
- Opening expansion: Study one model game each in the Grünfeld and Queen’s Gambit Accepted. Add one of them to your Black repertoire and test in five games.
- Endgame mini-course: 30 min day-1: basic rook endings; day-2: opposite-colour bishop motifs. The goal is to feel comfortable trading into these endings rather than hunting for mate when low on time.
Keep the energy and attacking spirit—you are already outperforming most 2200 bullet players. Refining your clock handling and defensive discipline will push you toward the next milestone. Good luck and have fun at the board!
