With a peak 3037 (2025-04-10) hovering around 3030 and a win over Daniel Naroditsky, you are clearly in excellent form.
The data below (see
and ) shows steady results, but close inspection of your most recent games reveals patterns you can polish to break through the next performance ceiling.
Your current super-powers
Opening versatility. You handle the French (Tarrasch & Exchange) seamlessly as Black and switch comfortably between the Italian, anti-Sicilian and Caro-Kann Advance as White.
Practical piece activity. In the win against Naroditsky you consistently hit the initiative – 12…f6!! and the later pawn storms showed excellent judgement.
Resourceful defence. Several lost positions were saved or prolonged thanks to creative counter-sacrifices (e.g. 27…e3 vs. Naroditsky, 38…Rg8+ vs. Little_Skib).
Recurring pain-points & targeted fixes
1. Time management in 3-minute games
Four of your last six defeats were on the clock, not the board. You tend to sink below 60 seconds by move 20 while your opponents keep ~90–110 seconds.
Fix: set a soft internal alarm: if you reach move 15 under 1:50, switch to “increment mode” – play simpler moves that keep tension instead of searching for the absolute best.
Drill: play 10 bullet games where you must keep >20 s in hand at move 20. The exercise forces you to develop “fast-but-sound” reflexes.
2. Over-ambitious pawn storms with <30 s
In both losses to Little_Skib you launched a h-/g-pawn rush but missed tactical shots once the position opened.
Before pushing flank pawns ask: “Can the centre crack first?” – a five-second blunder-check would have saved you twice.
3. Italian structures vs …Bg4 set-ups
You lost the following position because Black seized the d4-square and your king remained exposed:
Study plan: review 10 master games where White meets …Bg4 with h3, g4, Be3, Qe2 structures. Build a micro-repertoire card.
Tactic: notice that 12.h3 (instead of 12.Bg3) could have forced the bishop decision under safer circumstances.
4. Conversion technique when ahead
You sometimes allow counterplay in totally winning endgames (e.g. 41…Ra2+ in the English-Opening loss).
Adopt the “two-result only” mindset: trade all major pieces before grabbing pawns once you’re +4.

Mindset nugget
Remember the concept of zugzwang: sometimes the best move is to do nothing and hand the move to the opponent under mounting pressure.
Incorporating this patience into your ultra-tactical style will make you far tougher to beat.
Next milestone
A stable 3050+ blitz rating is well within reach.
Keep sharpening the openings you love, tame the clock, and continue analysing fearlessly – the breakthroughs will follow.
