Anna Kubicka - Woman International Master (aka Savagelittlemole)

Once upon a chessboard, in the realm of pawns and knights, emerged Anna Kubicka, a formidable force crowned with the prestigious title of Woman International Master (WIM) by FIDE. Known in the online chess wilds as "Savagelittlemole," Anna has burrowed her way through ranks and opponents with a mix of precision, tenacity, and just a sprinkle of cheeky brilliance.

Rating and Achievements

  • Peak Blitz Rating: A thunderous 2693 achieved in April 2020, when Anna was practically untouchable on the lightning-fast battlefield.
  • Peak Bullet Rating: An impressive 2550, reached in January 2025, showing her speed chess skills are as sharp as ever.
  • Peak Rapid Rating: A solid 2505 from November 2022, proving she's versatile across all time controls.

Playing Style & Stats

Anna’s style could be summed up as a master of endurance and comeback. With an endgame frequency of nearly 85%, she’s in it for the long haul, showing patience where others might crumble. Her comeback rate is an eye-popping 86%, meaning don’t count her out even if she loses a piece early – she often turns the tables! She averages about 76 moves per win, so prepare for a battle where every move counts.

Despite her fierce fighting spirit, Anna keeps her cool with a low early resignation rate of 1.67%, and a psychological tilt factor of only 14, which means she rarely lets a loss scatter her brainpieces.

The Battles Fought

With over 8,700 blitz games logged, including 4,092 wins, Anna's streak has spanned everything from humiliation to domination. Her longest winning streak is a formidable 16 games – enough to scare any opponent into pre-game hand-wringing.

She has a slight edge playing white pieces (winning 49.16% of games), while black remains a bit more challenging with a 45.14% win rate. But let’s be honest, any player who can tame both sides of the board has earned their spot among the legends.

Fun Fact & Recent Triumphs

Her username "Savagelittlemole" might suggest a timid creature, but don't be fooled! Anna can deliver checkmate with the stealth of a mole tunneling unseen—and a savage bite when you least expect it. Just recently, she clinched a thrilling checkmate victory in a live blitz game, showcasing her impeccable tactical awareness and endgame mastery.

When she’s not hunting down the king, Anna’s most productive hours happen when the world is still waking up—5 AM is her sweet spot to press that clock and outmaneuver her rivals.

In Summary

Anna Kubicka, Woman International Master and blitz bullet queen, combines grit, grace, and a dash of mischief on the chessboard. Whether it’s squeezing out a comeback or launching an aggressive assault, she stands out as a player you’d hate to face... but love to watch.

Chess Performance Review for Anna Kubicka

Hi Anna! I've reviewed your recent games and would like to share some constructive feedback to help you continue improving your chess skills.

Strengths

  • Opening Repertoire: You demonstrate a solid grasp of flexible openings such as the Reti and Nimzowitsch-Larsen Attack, allowing you to steer games into favorable and familiar middlegame structures.
  • Positional Understanding: Your pawn structure and piece placements generally show you understand key positional concepts, including controlling central squares and preparing for kingside attacks.
  • Endgame Technique: You have successfully converted several advantageous positions in the endgame, making good use of tactics like promotion threats and piece activity.

Areas to Improve

  • Tactical Awareness: Some losses reveal missed tactical opportunities and vulnerabilities, especially in complex positions where calculation depth is vital. Practicing tactical puzzles regularly can sharpen your ability to spot combinations and avoid sudden threats.
  • Time Management: There were moments in close games where the clock pressure impacted the quality of your moves. Working on pacing yourself to allocate enough time for critical positions will improve your decision-making.
  • Handling Opponent’s Counterplay: In several games, opponents generated counterplay against your kingside or center which proved decisive. Focus on identifying and neutralizing your opponent’s threats early to maintain the initiative.

Suggestions for Training

  • Review your losses carefully to understand where you underestimated your opponent's ideas. For example, the recent game against DaRealDuck showed opportunities to strengthen defense around the king.
  • Spend training time on tactical exercises, especially forks, pins, and discovered attacks.
    Try to solve puzzles under time constraints to simulate real-game pressure.
  • Analyze and memorize key ideas in your favorite openings. This helps avoid uncertain positions and improves confidence in the early phase.
  • Use positional studies to enhance your understanding of pawn breaks, piece coordination, and creating weaknesses in your opponent’s camp.

Highlights

Your recent win featuring a precise mating net and rook lift demonstrated impressive vision – for example, the final checkmate with 37. Rh7# in your last attacking game is a beautiful finish. Keep building on these attacking skills!

Continue to focus on sharpening your calculation and defense, and you're sure to climb higher in your rating and overall game quality.

Keep up the great work! Your passion and dedication are clear, and with consistent effort, you’ll see rewarding progress.
