    Amazing play- thank you!!! In both games you are now using the time to maximize your advantage- good job! You count on those last 30sec where you know u re excellent in hyperbullet and can make 20-30 moves. Until there you calculate the tactics well and blast them with precise moves. They can't do the same because likely they re not good bullet players. Opponent's only chance until +2300 is to flag you ;)

      ⁠@@theboringplanetim sorry but im still not sure i understand, that knight is defended twice in that line while white only has one attacker, so its not immediately takeable since itd be a bishop for knight trade but one pawn down for white, and no pawn structure damage made on black. if white wanted to stack another attacker, thats an extra move which would make time for blacks queen to return. I hope im making sense? Thank you for your reply by the way!
