Overview and current direction

Your results show a mixed but generally fighting style across recent games. In the shorter term, you’ve had a small positive bump this month, but the three- to six-month window shows some unevenness. The important takeaway is to aim for consistency: keep the sharp, active play you enjoy, but shore up decisions in the middlegame and clock management to prevent bigger swings.

What you do well

• Handling sharp, tactical positions: your openings that lead to dynamic, tactical play tend to yield good results. This suggests you are comfortable navigating complex middlegames and creating practical chances.
• Opening flexibility: you have a mix of aggressive and solid choices, which helps you avoid predictability. When you pick lines that fit your style, you can outplay opponents in the middlegame.
• Resourcefulness in the middlegame: you often keep pressure and find active plans even after some exchanges, which helps you convert advantages or complicate your opponent’s task.

Areas to improve

• Consistency over time: the 3-month and 6-month trends show some declines. Focus on stabilizing your decision-making in the middlegame and avoiding unnecessary material or positional concessions that snowball into worse positions.
• Time management: ensure you allocate your clock to critical moments. When you feel pressed for time, your accuracy tends to drop—practice planning a simple two- to three-move plan to reduce last-minute pressure.
• Repertoire clarity: with multiple openings, it’s easy to drift into unfamiliar structures. Choose 2–3 reliable openings for White and 2–3 for Black and study their typical middlegame plans and common endgames so you can execute a consistent game plan.
• Endgame technique: as trades accumulate, you’ll benefit from solid endgame patterns (rook endings, king activity, and pawn structure-awareness). Regular endgame practice will translate into more conversions of advantages.

Opening performance insights

Your openings show a mix of results, with some lines performing notably better than others. Notably:

• A dynamic defense (the Alekhine Defense) has performed well for you, indicating strength in handling unbalanced, tactical positions as Black.
• Other popular choices show around average success, suggesting room to tighten preparation or to lean on more familiar structures where you are comfortable and confident.
• Some quieter, more strategic setups show slightly weaker results—these may be worth rotating out of your main repertoire in favor of lines that lead to clearer middlegame plans for you.

Strategy: select 2–3 openings you enjoy and understand deeply. Build a concise set of middlegame ideas and typical endgames for each to improve consistency across those positions.

Practical training plan (next 4 weeks)

• Identify two openings to focus on (one dynamic, one solid) and study their main plans. Create a short, printable cheat-sheet of typical middlegame ideas for each.
• Do targeted tactical training: 15 minutes per day on common motifs you encounter in your focused openings (forks, discovered attacks, back-rank motifs, etc.).
• Post-game review routine: after every game, write down 3 concrete takeaways (one strategic, one tactical, one time-management note). If you blundered, note the moment and a safer alternative.
• Endgame practice: dedicate 10 minutes, twice a week, to simple rook and pawn endings and king activity patterns to improve conversion chances.
• Time-control drills: pick a standard game pace and practice with a clock, aiming to reach move 20 with a solid plan, then reassess. If you struggle under time, add a 5-minute daily drill focusing on quick decision-making in typical positions from your main openings.

Next steps

• Lock in 2–3 openings as your core repertoire and study their typical middlegame plans and endgames.
• Create a simple post-move filter: ask yourself after each move, “What is my plan in the next 2–3 moves, and what is my opponent aiming for?”
• Schedule a weekly review of your last 5 games, focusing on identifying one recurring mistake and one positive pattern to reinforce.
• Keep a small, manageable practice routine (tactics, endgames, and one or two opening chapters) to build steady improvement without burnout.
