Hi NeMeQuittePas! 👋
You are already a very resourceful bullet player – it shows in your ability to keep the pressure high, spot “one–move” tactics and convert a surprising number of lost positions on the clock. Below is some tailored feedback based on your last session against gurelediz.
🏆 What you are doing well
- Sharp tactical vision. In several games you found Qxf7+, Nxf7, and other forcing blows instantly. Your opponent’s king was constantly under fire.
- Practical time-pressure play. Even when down material you kept the initiative and forced your opponent to burn their final seconds – bullet gold.
- Confidence to experiment. Van ’t Kruijs, Wayward Queen and off-beat French set-ups gave you fresh positions and avoided heavy theory.
🚧 Biggest leaks to plug next
- First-move queen sorties cost more than they earn.
In the win below you survived, but against higher-rated bullet specialists 2.Qh5?! will back-fire because the queen needs two extra tempi to get to safety. Try the same aggressive spirit in sounder lines such as the King’s Gambit or the French Advance 3.e5. - Center safety in the Van ’t Kruijs (1.e3) games.
You twice lost instantly after 9…Nxf2! and 13…Qxd4. The early e2-e3 setup leaves the f- and d-pawns loose. Swap 1.e3 for 1.d4 or 1.Nf3 so the queen can protect those squares. - Time-outs when already winning.
Three of the losses were on time with a winning position. Create a “finishing routine”:- Pre-move the last two safe checks.
- Trade queens when up material – no counter-checks to worry about.
- Use the keyboard arrow keys (or drag-release) the same way every game to save milliseconds.
- Piece blunders stemming from mouse slips.
Most of the material losses happened on move 8-14. Spend 5 minutes in custom puzzle rush at 1-second delay and click-training: grab and release pieces on the square before clicking to cut slips by half.
🎯 Two-week action plan
- Play one 30-minute analysis game vs. a friend or engine every evening. Bullet instincts improve fastest when occasionally slowed down.
- Adopt a three-opening repertoire you can pre-move: Sicilian Wing Gambit as White, Scandinavian ½…d5 vs. 1.e4, and KID Bullet setup vs. 1.d4.
- Finish every session with 5 tactical puzzles rated 200 pts above your current average – accuracy over speed.
- Track your progress with the built-in stats: and . Aim for a green upward slope on the hours you normally tilt.
🔍 Mini-strategy clinic: converting extra material
When you are already a rook up, switch plans from “mate soon” to “trade & promote”. On move 45 of your February 20th win you played 45…Kf5 (good!) but then spent 30 more moves shuffling. The clean technique is:
- Centralise king behind your pawn chain.
- Force one pawn break with …g5 / f4.
- Trade rooks and push the passer – no calculation needed.
📈 Motivation corner
Your peak bullet rating so far: 2827 (2019-08-21). With the small fixes above you can realistically add 100-150 elo in the next month – especially if you cut the time-out losses.
Keep the energy, tidy up the openings, and you’ll see immediate gains. Good luck at the board, and keep me posted on your progress!
