Opening
OpeningEnglish Opening: Neo‑Catalan Declined

You fianchettoed the g‑bishop, castled, and kept the d‑pawn flexible: textbook Neo‑Catalan. Playing 6.cxd5 released the central tension a little early, though, and handed Black an easy game.

The plan Develop b3 and Bb2 and build pressure on the long diagonal before you resolve the centre. That is what makes this opening bite.
Middlegame
10…Re8Mistake0.15 → +1.27

Re8 handed White the open c‑file and a passed pawn, and left your d‑pawn pinned to the queen. One quiet move, a lasting initiative gone.

Better Scan for pins before you move a piece that's doing defensive work.
21…Nxd5Mistake1.73 → +3.05

This missed the queen pin on the f3 rook. Taking on e4 instead would have kept the rook defended and your king safer.

Better When a capture is available, check what it stops defending first.
Endgame
23…Kh7Blunder4.08 → M8

Kh7 walked into a forced mate. Qc2+ pushed your king to g8 and Rf8# finished it. A defensive check was the only way out.

Better When the centre opens, give your king escape squares before it's chased.

How it works

Link Lichess or Chess.com. Your games import automatically, nothing to upload.

The engine analyzes each game, then we translate its lines into plain English.

Your debrief names the pattern and queues a drill built from your own positions.

Three things a real coach does.

So we built all three. No eval bars, no homework.
