Just-na: The Woman FIDE Master with a Mysterious Flair

Meet Just-na, the chess virtuoso who has earned the prestigious title of Woman FIDE Master. A player whose username might suggest a pause or hesitation—but on the board, hesitation is nowhere to be found! Just-na combines deep strategic insight with a tactical sharpness that makes every game an exciting battle of wits.

Rating Rising like a Pawn to Queen

Just-na’s blitz rating has soared impressively, reaching a peak of 2558 in May 2025, with bullet ratings comfortably hovering around 2400+. Not one to shy away from fast-paced games, this player thrives under pressure, flaunting a long winning streak of 18 games and a comeback rate of a whopping 83.6%.

Opening Secrets and Signature Moves

While Top Secret is the most played opening by Just-na—shrouded in mystery like a spy novel—there’s no doubt their love for the English Opening Agincourt Defense pays off with a stellar 62.5% win rate. The Queen's Gambit Declined Ragozin Defense is another jewel in their repertoire, boasting an undefeated 100% win rate across several games.

Stylish and Steadfast

Just-na exhibits a mature playing style marked by a love for the endgame (86.55% frequency) and a patience that most grandmasters would envy—the average moves per win reach almost 80, proving that slow and steady often wins the race. Despite a tilt factor of 8 (yes, they’re human too), their resilience shines through.

A Battle-Tested Competitor

With over 360 blitz and bullet wins combined, Just-na shows no signs of slowing down. Losses? Sure, but when life gives Just-na lemons, they turn those into checkmate combos with a cheeky comeback rate near 84%. Their psychological warfare includes mastering the timed element too, frequently besting opponents in their favorite early-morning hours.

Highlight of Recent Games

In their latest victory on May 23, 2025, Just-na masterfully executed a checkmate with the English Opening Agincourt Defense, asserting dominance and flair until the very last Rook move.

In Summary

Whether battling in bullet or blitz, Just-na is a force of nature—a cunning strategist who can turn even the wildest positions into victories. A mind sharpened by experience, a heart fueled by passion, and fingers lightning quick on the keyboard. Chess world: watch out, the queen (and master) known as Just-na is here to make her move!

Your Super-Powers

  • Tactical radar: The win against Francesco Seresin featured a clean final combination (72…Rf4#).
    Snippet:
  • Dynamic pawn play: You frequently generate queenside space with a3–b4/b5 and kingside pressure with h4-h5. When timed correctly (e.g. vs amkarych), it gives you the initiative very early.
  • Conversion of material edge: In several wins you transitioned to technically won endgames (e.g. opposite-colored-bishop ending vs Jonáš Karch) without allowing counter-play.

Recurring Pain-Points

  1. Clock management – Five of your six losses were on time with playable or even promising positions.
    • Try a “soft ceiling”: never drop below 10 s unless the position is absolutely winning.
    • When the opponent is thinking, decide your next two candidate moves so you can blitz one reply.
  2. Loose kingside pawn pushes – Early g4/h4 (loss vs trailoflies) invited counter-sacrifices. Before advancing a wing pawn ask, “If it gets exchanged, what squares become weak?” This is classic Prophylaxis.
  3. Handling the Symmetrical English as White – In the loss to wanyaland your a3 Rb1 b4 plan was met by …c5 d6 Bf5, giving Black easy pressure. Study the model game Short-Karpov, Linares 1992 for the ideal timing of b4.
  4. Central tension avoidance – A few games show you exchanging in the center (dxc5, cxd5) without need, freeing the opponent’s pieces. When you already have space, keep pawns locked so the other side feels cramped.

Action-Plan for the next week

FocusDaily drill (≈15 min)
Time-pressure decisions Play 5 + 5 games and write down the move number where you drop under 1 min. Aim to delay that point by 5 moves each day.
English Opening (White) Review 3 annotated games where White employs c4 Nc3 g3 Bg2 a3 Rb1 b4; note common Black counter-ideas (…b5, …a5, …Nd4).
Kingside safety Take your own losses where g4/h4 backfired, set the position before the push and ask “What if I castle first?” in analysis mode.
Endgames under 30 s Use a table-base trainer: practice converting K+R vs K under a 10-second increment to build nerves and technique.

Micro-tips to apply immediately

  • During the opening, touch the center pawns second, not first – develop & castle, then strike.
  • When you have an outside passed pawn, place your king behind it before pushing (prevents counter-checks).
  • If the opponent’s last move surprised you, spend at least 5 s asking, “What changed? What is threatened?” – this alone saves blunders.

Keep the momentum!

You are already converting tactics at a high level. Shoring up the few structural and time-management issues could push you well beyond 2600 blitz. Enjoy the journey, and feel free to share any interesting positions you encounter next session.
