Hi,
next match features Systema Challenge vs Millenium The King Performance.
If the Challenge looks rather good when playing opponents from the same or so strength, it provides evidences of obvious weaknesses playing the King Performance. Saying obvious, I mean mistakes I could immediately spot as a mediocre chess player. I let you check the games.
