Analyzing this game against Maria
Sort:
The reason it was brilliant, is because you were threatening to fork your opponents king and queen. If they took your rook, you would win material. The reason the queen move was a blunder was because they basically gave up a piece. Good game!
Oh. I didn't see that. I was just thinking about controlling the center. lol
Thank you!
In my opinion, Chess.com's game analysis is only good for finding out where you blundered; otherwise, it's completely useless for chess improvement. @Doomed_Noob, if you're serious about getting good at chess, then you should ignore the bots, and instead, play real people.

I'm struggling against the 1000-ish elo bots. I win some, I lose some. In this game I got a feel that I could force their king out using my bishops and then I chased him around the middle of the board until I got checkmate.
After going through the analysis, I'm shocked how the weight on the left turned mostly white on turn 8 when I moved my bishop to d3, and then Maria moved her queen to f6.
I know moving the queen too early is bad, but is it THAT bad? I don't even have anything pointed at f6.
Then on turn 15 I got my first brilliant move - for leaving one of my rooks exposed? I don't think this was brilliant. During the following moves the AI coach says stuff about pawn structure, so I think it must be happy I didn't use the pawns guarding my king to go on an attack?
Thoughts?
