🧐Why do I participate in my own tactical marathon?!

Let’s be real — chess is tactics. Period.

You can have the best opening prep, a killer endgame technique, and still lose because you missed one fork. One pin. One sneaky check. That’s how brutal this game is.

So if you want to win more games, you need to sharpen your tactical vision.

Here’s how:

🔥 Solve puzzles every day. Not just random ones — set a goal. 10-20 puzzles daily, increasing in difficulty over time. Your brain needs repetition.

⚡️ Blitz out tactical patterns. Drills like mate-in-ones, forks, skewers, and discovered attacks — speed matters. The faster you recognize them, the more automatic they become.

👀 Practice blindfold tactics. Yes, it’s hard. But visualizing positions in your head strengthens calculation and board awareness. Start simple, then level up.

💣 Always ask: What’s hanging? What’s the opponent’s threat? Before everymove, train yourself to check for loose pieces, threats, and tactical shots. The best players do this instinctively.

🚀 Play more classical games. Or at least Rapid. You can’t sharpen your tactics in blitz, and definitely not in bullet. Slow games force you to calculate properly. Yes, it’s hard. Yes, it can be boring. But skipping this step is why your tactics collapse under pressure.

And here’s the truth — tactics aren’t just something you “learn” once. They’re a muscle. They need training. Daily. Relentlessly.

That’s why I’m doing my own marathon. Not just for you, but for me.

Because I need this work too. I want to sharpen my calculation skills, calculate faster, and turn every position into a damn battlefield. Every single day. And the only way to do that?

Training.

So, are you in?
