Hi Kondylev — Personalised Post-Game Feedback
Quick profile snapshot
- Peak Rapid rating: 2027 (2019-01-04)
- Preferred defences with Black: Hyper-/Accelerated Dragon & Caro-Kann
- Typical activity pattern:
What you already do well
- Dynamic openings – You willingly enter sharp Sicilian and King’s Indian structures and generally seize the initiative early (e.g. 14…fxg4! in your 04 Jan 2019 win).
- Tactical alertness – Good eye for intermediate moves such as 21…Bxf6 neutralising White’s attack in that same game.
- Space-gaining pawn thrusts – Consistent use of …a5/…a4 or …f5 to create pawn levers and open files for rooks.
Main improvement targets
- Clock management
Two of your recent losses were on time while still defensible. Adopt a “red-zone” rule: under 1 minute, play solely from pre-set candidate lists (checks, captures, threats) and trust your intuition. - End-game conversion
Rook endings in both wins and losses show shaky technique. Set a weekly goal to rehearse Philidor, Lucena and Vancura positions; 10 minutes/day with a board or engine drill suffices. - Critical theory gaps in the Accelerated Dragon
The miniature after 11.Nb5 illustrates the danger of relying on general schemes without concrete knowledge.
Key line to memorise:
Instead, prefer 11…d6! or even 11…0-0-0 followed by …Kb8 and …Qc8.
Action plan
- Daily: 20 puzzles at your performance peak + review one instructive rook ending.
- Every 3 days: play a 15 | 10 rapid game focusing on time discipline; annotate immediately.
- Weekly: pick one master Accelerated Dragon game and summarise three thematic ideas (…d5 break, exchange sac on c3, minority attack with …b5).
Milestones
- Two weeks: zero time losses in 3-min pool.
- One month: ≥ 60 % score with Black in Maroczy Bind setups.
- Quarter-year: surpass current peak by +50 Rapid points.
Keep nurturing your creative style. With firmer end-game fundamentals and stricter clock control, you are well on your way to the next rating jump. Good luck!
