. Use these charts to schedule training when you score highest.

What you’re already doing well

  • Tactical sharpness. In your win vs retiredpossum you spotted the Bxc7# mating pattern with only 82 seconds left. Excellent tactical vision.
  • Open-game instincts. With 1.e4 you reach lively Italian and Rossolimo positions that suit your style of quick piece activity.
  • Bold attacking ideas. The exchange sacrifice 16.Rxa7!! in the same game shows you are willing to invest material for the initiative—a valuable skill at every level.

Key growth areas

  • King safety as Black. Early queen raids in the Englund-Gambit attempt left your king in the centre and you were mated on move 12.
  • Premature flank pawn pushes. Moves like …g5/…h5 before castling (see loss to arifhnn) created holes your opponents exploited.
  • One more ply of calculation. Ask “what is my opponent’s next threat?” before making any capture. The diagram below shows why.

14-day improvement plan

  1. Opening discipline
    • Keep playing the Italian as White, but learn lines vs the Two Knights and Giuoco Pianissimo (first 6 moves).
    • As Black adopt one answer and stick to it:
      – 1.e4 → …e5 and the Classical Two-Knights.
      – 1.d4 → …d5 (no Englund until 1000+).
  2. Daily tactics training
    20 puzzles focused on forks, pins and mates. Aim for 80 % accuracy.
  3. Post-game reflection
    After each session review one win & one loss, write one takeaway each.
  4. Endgame basics
    One hour this week on K+P and basic rook endings – the marathon loss vs ahmed4mido shows how valuable this is.

Mindset & time management

You often reach critical positions with 5+ minutes unused. Slow down, calculate, then play—your accuracy will jump immediately.

Final encouragement

Your creativity and fighting spirit are clear. Add a dose of discipline and structured study and you’ll break the 900 barrier soon. Enjoy the climb, and good luck!
