Your performance at a glance
- When you play:
- How you score through the week:
3 recurring strengths
- Tactical awareness. You spot ​tactics quickly – note the 31…Rh1# miniature against rhwr.
- Practical aggression. Early …g5/…h5 thrusts (e.g. vs mb​ojan) show you like seizing the initiative.
- Conversion in won positions. End-game technique was clean in the “two-queen” finish against dodorox.
3 priority improvements
- Opening consistency. Jumping between …f6, …g6 systems and the Albin Counter-Gambit lets stronger opponents steer the game into lines you don’t know.
- King safety in early queen raids. The loss to Daniel Naroditsky stems from 10.Qxb7 inviting …Bb4+. Your king walked to a3 and never recovered.
- Time management under pressure. Two recent losses (ParagonFighter & Trovita84) were on the clock while still unclear on the board.
Opening focus (next two weeks)
• With Black vs 1.e4: adopt one main line (e.g. Sicilian Najdorf or French) and stick to it – no more mixing Alekhine & Scandinavian ideas.
• With Black vs 1.d4/c4/Nf3: build a compact set-up – e.g. the King’s Indian if you enjoy pawn storms, or the solid Slav if you prefer structure.
• Every session, play five unrated games slowly (3 + 2) and write down the first 12 moves from memory afterwards.
Illustrative moments
What went wrong vs Naroditsky (diagram after 18…Qa5#)
• Lesson: After grabbing on b7 you must calculate forcing checks. Simply castling on move 10 would avoid the entire trap.
• Drill: Practice “Queen-snatch safety test”: whenever you can take a pawn with the queen in the opening, spend two extra seconds asking “What checks & captures does my opponent gain?”
Clean attacking win vs rhwr
• Positive takeaway: You used open lines around the enemy king and coordinated heavy pieces smoothly.
• Keep: Spotting & executing thematic sacrifices (…Rxh4!) is your forte – preserve that attacking mindset.
End-game & technique
Your two-queen end-games were stylish, but the loss to Trovita84 showed a tendency to over-push pawns before centralising the king. Spend 15 min/day on rook + pawn vs rook drill; it pays off even in bullet because technique becomes automatic.
Action plan checklist
- ⏱️ Clock discipline: aim for 10 – 15 s reserve entering tactical complications. Blunder rate will drop.
- đź“š Opening notebook: write one page per defence with key traps you might suffer (start with Albin & Scandinavian).
- 🧠Daily puzzle rush: 3 runs, but pause after the first wrong answer and replay the line on a board.
- 🏋️‍♂️ Monthly goal: reach >55 % win-rate against 2200-plus opposition – track in the chart above.
