“Give them no peace.”
Played a few? Don't just close the loss.
Review what went wrong, see how you rank vs players at your level, and train the mistakes that keep costing you points — that's how the rating actually moves.
The bots are calibrated to feel like a real human at their rating — they hang pieces and miss tactics the way a player at that level actually does, not a perfect engine with a random blunder.

How to Beat Initiative Irina
- Initiative Irina loves to attack — make sure your king is safely castled before the middlegame begins.
- Defend carefully against early sacrifices. Take the material and consolidate; aggressive bots often run out of steam if you survive the storm.
- Trade queens when you can — without their attacking piece, aggressive bots lose their main weapon.
- Avoid weakening your kingside pawn structure; they will be the target of attack.
