Hi mas_1907 👋

Great job keeping an active schedule and pushing your blitz rating to 858 (2025-08-31)! A quick review of your last dozen games (⏱ 3-minute) shows real progress—let’s build on it.

What you already do well

• Active piece play. Your bishops often land on c4/g5 early, putting pressure on f7/f2. In the win vs. algoxdxdxd0 you even used Bxf7+ tactics to rip the king open.
• Tactical alertness. Ideas like 18.Nxe7+ (vs. lPlayFast) and the f-pawn roller in your last win show you spot forks & discovered attacks quickly—keep sharpening them with daily puzzles.
• Confidence in pawn races. The smooth promotion sequence …f4-f5-f6-f7-f8=Q proves you know when to push passed pawns.

Bottlenecks holding you back

1. Opening safety first. Early queen raids like 3.Qh5 or 7.Qxb7 led to two of your fastest losses (see games vs. zaaannnnnnnnnn & Parca270893). Replace «grab a pawn» with the three rules: develop, control the centre, castle.
2. Castling on time. In your loss to doomraw you stayed in the centre until move 18 and got mated on the dark squares. Aim to castle by move 8–10 unless you win material first.
3. Blunder check routine. Moves like 6.Qf3?? Bxf3 end a game instantly. Before you click “Move”, ask: • Are any of my pieces hanging? • What did my opponent’s last move threaten? Giving yourself even one extra second will save dozens of points.
4. End-game conversion. Roughly half of your wins come from the opponent flagging. Learning basic rook & pawn endings will help you finish cleanly when clocks are low.

Two-week improvement plan

• Opening focus: Stick to the quiet Giuoco Pianissimo & Two-Knights as White, Classical e5 as Black. Build one solid line instead of improvising.
• 20 puzzles / day: Filter for forks, pins, skewers. (Example target pattern: fork )
• Game review habit: After every session, locate the first big mistake for each side. Don’t analyse the whole game—just that moment.
• End-game drills: Play «Rook vs. Pawn» & «King and Pawn» bots for 10 min each practice day.

Move-by-move checklist

1. What does their last move hit or free up?
2. Are any of my pieces/king in danger?
3. Can I improve worst-placed piece or create a threat?

Stick with the plan, keep the king safe, and 750+ blitz is right around the corner. Good luck, and have fun at the board!
