Hi! I am from India, 11 years old guy. I won’t tell my name.

My username is weird, right? Its explorin’ the username time then!

Sturm = Stormy Wind

Gambit = “A gambit happens in chess when a player gives up material during the opening to seek some kind of compensation. Most gambits require the sacrifice of one or more pawns, while a few of them involve sacrificing more valuable pieces.”

So, Sturm Gambit = Stormy and windy (dangerous) gambit that catches people off - guard.

I am a Tactical ChessKid player, always seeking a strong attack and tactical sacrifices. I struggle with positional understanding, but I'm looking to improve my rating.
