Areas to Improve Based on Recent Losses

- King Safety: In some games, your king became vulnerable especially during middle and endgame phases. Prioritize castling early and keeping the king safe from attacks.
- Opening Preparation: Some losses came from openings like the French Defense where timely development and responses could be improved. Reviewing these openings and common plans could help.
- Handling Opponent Pressure: When your opponent gained active attacking chances, it was challenging to parry threats efficiently. Practicing defense under pressure could help reduce tactical losses.
Specific Suggestions
- Review games where opponents launch early queen or piece attacks, focusing on your responses to threats.
- Study common tactical motifs like forks, pins, and discovered attacks to enhance your tactical vision.
- Practice openings that you encounter frequently to become familiar with the key ideas, such as the Scandinavian Defense and Bishop’s Opening variations.
- Work on slowing the game down when under attack to avoid rushed moves; taking a moment to evaluate threats can be valuable.
