Blitz Monster, an experimental version of Novag's Super Constellation or its successor Constellation Expert by David Kittinger, competing with three entries at the WMCCC 1985 in Amsterdam. During the Hong Kong human Blitz tournament March 1984, Super Constellation got 19/28 only playing Black, with 5 points versus International Masters in the 2355 to 2474 range, and was spontaneously called Blitz Monster.
