Best skills
Mis mejores habilidades en ajedrez se centran en tácticas agudas y un cálculo rápido y preciso, lo que me ha permitido superar desafíos tácticos y ganar partidas contra Grandes Maestros (GM), Maestros Internacionales (MI) y Maestros FIDE (MF) tanto en partidas rápidas como en partidas pensadas. Además, soy hábil en gestionar el tiempo, lo que me proporciona una ventaja estratégica significativa durante las partidas.
