Hi, I’m @Shadow_Knight_99

I play a fast, focused game. I like sharp positions where things can turn quickly and instincts matter. I’m here to improve, compete, and bring a style that can shift when it needs to — sometimes steady, sometimes more aggressive, depending on what the position calls for. Win or lose, I stay focused and keep trying to find the best path forward.
