Resigned, but happy :D

So Giraffe_Chess and ChesswithOvi were doing a sub battle on Twitch, and my game was against NicLvn. I thought it was a good game but would like hear what everyone else thinks and what they would've done differently

I recommend you do plenty of tactics training, and play lots of bullet. If you do tactics training your 'minds eye' will immediately see that discovered check taking the queen.

I always play 8... d5 - I much prefer the e6 d5 pawn structure. I guess in a 1`0+10, finding that 15... Bxf5 16. Rxf5 Nf2+ doesn't seem that unreasonable.
Ill agree with doing tons of tactics. Im weak in a lot of things as a beginner but I have done thousands of tactics and thats helped me the most. You were suffocating me in this game I felt lost but saw that blunder immediately because the tactics. I'd like to get stronger in more aspects of the game. you played really well in the opening. We will have to get some more games in soon and analyze.
Just my two cents but I started on chesscom and bought the membership. have used the tactics on there a lot but I really like how lichess always has tournament arenas every hour for players under 2000 only and your able to get a lot of games in an hour.
@NicLvn I've been thinking about getting a premium membership for chess.com, I'm thinking I'll wait until I go back to work and see whether I'll have the time or money
samethings happened to me 2300+ classical player miss basic tactic and lose Queen
