Introducing Your Games: Train on Tactics You Actually Missed
Connect your Lichess account. We'll scan your games, find the tactics you missed, and add them to your review queue.
TL;DR: Disco Chess now analyzes your real games to find missed tactical opportunities. Connect your Lichess account, and we'll use Stockfish to identify positions where you had a winning tactic but played something else. Those positions enter your review queue for spaced repetition training.

Key Takeaways
- Connect your Lichess account with one click.
- Stockfish analyzes your games to find positions where you missed a winning tactic.
- Only instructive tactics are selected. Clear winning moves, not obscure engine lines.
- Missed tactics enter your review queue with spaced repetition until mastered.
- See your wrong move highlighted and learn the winning line you missed.
Your Games Are a Goldmine
Generic puzzles are useful, but they're patterns someone else struggled with. Your own games contain patterns you struggle with. Positions you reached through your openings, your style, your decisions.
When you miss a tactic in your own game, that's your biggest training opportunity. It's a blind spot specific to your chess. And now Disco Chess can find those blind spots automatically.
How It Works
1. Connect Your Account
Link your Lichess account with one click. We use secure authorization, and you can disconnect anytime.
2. Automatic Game Sync
Your recent games are imported automatically. As you play more, new games sync in the background. No manual uploading, no copy-pasting PGNs.
3. Stockfish Finds Your Missed Tactics
For each game, Stockfish analyzes every position where you were to move. When it finds a position where:
- The best move gave you a significant advantage
- You played something else
- The winning line has clear "only moves" (no obscure computer lines)
That position becomes a training puzzle.
4. Review Queue
Missed tactics join your Mistake Review queue. You'll see them at increasing intervals: 1, 3, 7, 14, 30 days. Solve correctly five times and you've mastered it forever.
What You'll See
When you review a missed tactic from your game:
- Your move is shown with a red arrow, so you remember what you actually played
- The winning line is presented as a puzzle to solve
- Link to the full game if you want context
The red arrow is key. It's not just "here's a tactic." It's "here's the tactic you missed, and here's the mistake you made." That context makes the learning stick.
Why This Matters
Think about how you usually review games. You scroll through, maybe an engine points out a blunder, you nod and move on. But do you actually practice those positions?
With Your Games, the practice is automatic. Missed tactics don't disappear into your game history. They become training material that you'll see again and again until the pattern is burned into your memory.
The same Stockfish engine used by world champions identifies your mistakes. The same spaced repetition system that makes Disco Chess effective ensures you learn from them.
