While the daily grind may seem casual, Bachana’s rapid-fire bullet and blitz matches are where the magic unfolds – amassing thousands of games with a chilly 43-44% win rate, which is respectable given the brutal competition in online fast chess.

  • Known for early resignations at a modest 0.84%, proving that when it’s hopeless, it’s just graceful to quit – but only after giving the opponent a worthy fight!
  • His favorite mystery “opening” is top secret – literally! Opponents never see it coming, and neither do we.

Rivalries & Opponents

Bachana’s favorite sparring partners include shikshawithpraveen, zuraazmai, and zurabazmai, each game a new chapter in a fast-paced chess saga. Some opponents have enjoyed a slice of victory, but with Bachana’s tactical prowess, most found crossing swords a hard-fought challenge.

When it comes to winning, Bachana’s popularity peaks against masbahi and z_phikel – undefeated or nearly so in multiple encounters.

Off the Chessboard

Bachana’s tilt factor is relatively low at 12, indicating a calm and composed mindset, even under pressure – a must-have trait for any strong player. However, the difference between rated and casual wins hints that Bachana enjoys a good challenge, preferably one that counts.

Feedback for Bachana Morchiashvili

Great work on your recent games! Here are some constructive points to help you continue your progress:

Strengths

  • Opening Preparation: You show a solid understanding of common opening principles, frequently developing pieces actively and castling early, which leads to safe king positions.
  • Endgame Technique: You consistently convert advantages in the endgame, demonstrating good technique—like in your last win where you promoted a pawn decisively.
  • Tactical Awareness: Your games show sharp tactical vision, capturing opportunities to gain material or launch threats that your opponents struggled to parry.

Areas for Improvement

  • Time Management: In several games, the clock was a crucial factor. Try to balance your thinking time to avoid flagging, especially in complex positions where every second counts.
  • Handling Pressure in Complex Positions: Although your tactical skills are strong, improving your comfort in slightly worse or equal positions could help minimize losses. Spend some time studying defensive techniques and simplifications under pressure.
  • Pawn Structure Awareness: Some games feature isolated or doubled pawns that became targets later in the game. Continue to monitor pawn structures carefully to avoid giving your opponent lasting weaknesses.

Next Steps

  • Analyze the critical moments in your most recent losses to understand what led to dropping the advantage or opening opportunities for your opponent.
  • Incorporate practice on puzzle rushes or tactical trainers focusing on time management and calculation speed to sharpen your practical skills.
  • Explore Pawn Structure concepts in more depth to learn how to maintain healthy pawn formations and use them to your advantage.

Keep up the strong work! With steady focus on these areas, you'll see even more consistent results. Feel free to share any games you'd like to review together.
