Hi Swaggy_I – Performance Snapshot
Your recent results show an energetic, tactically-minded style with a healthy peak of 2552 (2024-12-03). You score especially well in late-evening sessions (see
), and you often decide games before move 30.What You’re Doing Well
- Active Piece Play: Your victories frequently come from rapid centralisation (e.g. 17.Nxe4! in the Benoni win) and well-timed exchange sacs such as 23.Rxd5! vs Tom Haverford.
- King-side Initiative: Pawn storms (g- and h-pawns) net you many quick points – a clear trademark.
- Opening Versatility with Black: You handle the Pirc, Sicilian, Slav and Nimzo structures comfortably, keeping opponents out of book.
Growth Areas
- Catalan Pawn Tension: Two recent losses (\#1 vs Attacker_2006, \#2 vs rastkom) started with 6…dxc4. You recaptured the pawn but let Black seize the initiative on the
b-file. Study model games where White delays Bxc4 until development is complete. - Queen Harassment Overshoot: Early
Qa4/Qb5in the same games cost tempi and left pieces uncoordinated. Ask “what happens after …c6/…Rb8?” before embarking on queen sorties. - Conversion & Endgames: The loss vs 200g_Rice shows a winning middlegame that drifted into a difficult rook ending after 30.Re7?!. Add 15-minute weekly sessions on technical rook endings and the “principle of two weaknesses.”
- Time Management in Bullet-like Time Controls: Many mistakes appear once the clock dips under 45 s. Train with increment (e.g. 3 + 2) or do “move-per-second” drills to build a safety cushion.
Opening Tune-Ups
• White vs …dxc4 Catalan: Consider 7.Qc2 followed by Rd1 & a4 – keeping the pawn gambitted for rapid development.
• Black vs 1.d4: Your Slav results are excellent; deepen your repertoire with the Semi-Slav (…e6 & …dxc4 ideas you already face as White).
• Against 1.e4: The Pirc/Lion can be risky in bullet. Add a solid fallback such as the Caro-Kann to widen strategic understanding.
Illustrative Examples
Last win – smooth tactical crush
Last loss – early queen adventure backfires
Action Plan (Next 2 Weeks)
- Drill the “Catalan Open” with engine sparring: set the position after 6…dxc4 and play 10 games as White.
- Endgame flashcards: 20 fundamental rook-and-pawn positions (Lucena, Philidor, Vancura).
- Clock discipline: play one 5 + 5 game daily, forcing deeper calculation without bullet habits.
- Annotate one win and one loss each session; focus on the first irreversible mistake, not the last tactical blunder.
Keep embracing your dynamic style, but balance it with a touch more restraint in the opening and clarity in technical endings. Good luck, and see you climbing past 2500 soon!
