And the last game which I win against Cute-Fox to Get my HNM norm!

How I got to 2200

But there is a catch, to get HNM you need to be 2200. I had 2200 on my @Horde-Fox account but @dude128 said that I need to have 2200 on this account (@Screechy_123) So lets look at my 3 games that let me get to 2200:

In this 1+0 game against @SUNTZU777 I was lost until I flagged him securing my win and getting +4 rating points which let me to the rating of 2189.

In the game before I got to 2200 I played once again of 1 + 0 with @Cute-Fox. I flagged him, I had 2 seconds left on my clock but luckily I did it. Now I did not know if I should accept the rematch because I got + 6 rating totaling up to 2195. But I did.

I played 1 + 0 once again against @Cute-Fox. This game was epic. At the end of the game I ahd 00:00.6 left on the clock! If to move 57 I was surprised that I had the speed to premove Bxd7 and not stealmate.

Here Is my Certificate for reaching Horde National Master (HNM)

Conclusion:

I am now a HNM and I am in the top 100 of horde. My favourite move will be 58... Qxe6 because that secured my 3rd norm.
