NextMove
1.2.2
Training guide
Labeling one move as a blunder is easy. The hard part is spotting the same underlying mistake across dozens of games and knowing what to study because of it.
What this guide covers
You improve faster when you fix the mistake pattern that appears ten times, not the flashy one that appeared once.
Repeated mistakes can be turned into drills, opening reviews, and targeted tactical work.
Use this page as the framework, then validate it against your own games with a fresh report.
Focus 1

Focus 2

Focus 3
You do not need a thousand metrics. You need to know which recurring choices are costing results.
Keep the process simple enough that you will actually repeat it after every batch of games.
Look at the highest-signal recurring pattern first.
Review the example positions attached to that pattern and identify the missed idea.
Build one short training block around that mistake before moving to the next issue.
Why NextMove
These guide pages are meant to frame the problem clearly, not replace analysis of your actual games. The real value comes from comparing the idea on this page against your own openings, recurring mistakes, and weakest phases.
If the guide matches what your report shows, you have a training direction. If it does not, that is useful too, because it tells you where your personal games differ from the generic advice most players get.
Use the workflow page for the product, then go deeper on the report angle you care about most.
