I'm not finding the bot realistic at all. It makes the exact same type of blunders you would expect a dumbed down bot to make. Just random, strange looking blunders.

As at 900 level, me playing white, it goes Bf3 in the opening as if I have a knight there, but there isn't a knight there anymore. I just moved it to e5. There's 3 pieces protecting that square. Would never see that in a real game except if it's a crazy premove (it did not move quickly).

At 1800 level, I'm about to double attack their knight on h6, so it moves its king out of g8 to get a flight square. But then it doesn't follow through on its plan, inexplicably ignoring my threat and giving me a piece. I have no other immediate threats.
