tactical intuition is my key skill. the ability to spot a tactic 4 moves away, and another one 5 moves away and play the move which directs the game toward both simultaneously. see library game 92 for definition
I do not respect material. I respect energy
speed over knowledge

most of my games end with me down a queen but with an extra 75 seconds... my response? This is not a 4 minute game
I have over 10,000 hours playing with pieces vs. a queen. I search for those positions because my piece coordination vs. queens is now instantaneous. Queen worshipers are doomed.
