Rated around 1398, she sits comfortably in the casual club range, meaning she has picked up the basic principles of development and king safety from years of playing here and there, but has never sat down to study theory in any serious way. Her middlegames can drift and her endings often get away from her. With the white pieces she gravitates toward the [Scotch Game](/resources/openings/scotch-game), an opening she has played far more than any other, while as black she often reaches for the Slav. Expect a quiet, hesitant opponent who keeps tension on the board far longer than most players at her level would dare.","39","nFIAL","United States","us","44d094c61e41b13e552f960c9e9c4cec19496e081a8b62e71a843341b594519f","2026-07-06",1398,"json",[15,18,21],{"question":16,"answer":17},"What rating is Dusty?","Dusty is rated approximately 1398, placing her in the casual club player range.
