Missed Tactics

Generic puzzles are useful, but nothing beats learning from your own mistakes. Connect your Lichess account and we'll find the tactics you missed in your real games, then add them to your review queue so you never miss the same shot twice.

Why Your Own Games?

When you solve a random puzzle, you're practicing patterns someone else struggled with. When you solve a tactic from your own game, you're fixing a blind spot in your specific chess understanding.

That position appeared in your game for a reason. You reached it through your openings, your style of play, your decision-making. Training on it means you're preparing for positions you'll actually see again.

How It Works

1

Connect Your Account

Link your Lichess account with one click. We use secure authorization, and you can disconnect at any time.

2

Automatic Game Sync

Your recent games are imported automatically. As you play more games, they're synced in the background.

3

Tactics Detection

Stockfish analyzes each game to find positions where you had a winning tactic but played something else. Only clear, instructive tactics are selected.

4

Review Queue

Missed tactics join your Mistake Review queue. Spaced repetition ensures you see them at optimal intervals until mastered.

What You'll See

When you review a missed tactic from your game, you'll see:

  • Your move shown with a red arrow, so you remember what you played
  • The winning line to work through and learn
  • Link to the full game for context when you want it

Your Data is Secure

We only access your public game history. You can disconnect your account at any time, and we'll remove all synced game data.
