Feedback for Димитрий Король
Димитрий, you’ve shown solid understanding and tactical awareness in your recent games, especially in the Modern and English Opening structures. Your ability to convert games into wins – including some sharp tactical finishes – is impressive.
Strengths
- Opening Knowledge: You consistently play popular, respectable openings such as the English Opening and Modern Defense, which shows good preparation and understanding of opening principles.
- Endgame Technique: Your recent wins demonstrate good endgame technique, including converting advantages under time pressure and delivering accurate checkmates.
- Tactical Awareness: You find effective tactical continuations and capitalizations, such as exploiting pins and forks, and transitioning well from middlegame to endgame.
Areas for Improvement
- Time Management: Some of your wins were achieved by opponents running out of time. Improving your pace and time allocation can increase the chance to secure wins more convincingly.

- Use tactical puzzles related to your opening repertoire to sharpen your vision for key tactical motifs that arise frequently in your chosen openings.
Keep up the hard work and consistent practice. With continued focus on time management and critical defense, your already strong tactical skills will help you climb even higher.
