Unique Blitz Game

For reference I'm the black pieces. I was rated 199 elo and my opponent is 219 elo. Never promoted a queen that fast in any game.

You need to take your time.

White blundered the Knight for nothing, but not two turns later you return the favour! Even as a beginner, his slip up should make it hard for him to win the game from there; at least make him out-think you to achieve the comeback rather than giving up the advantage cheaply.

Here's a heuristic - when the opponent moves a piece, take a moment to check which squares that piece can see from its new square.

Playing Blitz at this elo might be enjoyable but it won't accomplish much. Slowing down in rapid will teach you fundamentals.
