Where these games come from
Every game was played on Lichess between October 2025 to November 2025. We took them from the Lichess Elite Database by nikonoel, which collects rated games between the strongest players on the site. In recent months that means one player rated 2500 or more and the other 2300 or more. Lichess releases its games under the CC0 license, so they are free for anyone to use.
From those we kept standard rated games of at least 20 moves, with every rapid and classical game plus a broad sample of blitz, spread across as many openings as possible. The source has no bullet games. Opening names come from our own opening explorer, matched on the deepest named position each game reaches.
