Hey if you're lower then 1000 I can help you with that, I'm a 1500 myself, But I'm not so good but I know a few things

[rugged cloud]

[waxen wraith]

aii

[loud wadi]

Sure

[limpid viper]

ngl i thought i blundered for a second though

[waxen wraith]

we can hop in chat later

[high gorge]

So when can we schedule a lesson ?

[high gorge]

Add me, BeeGreen1,

[loud wadi]

Mr. @high gorge, is it possible that me and @rugged cloud play a best of 5 with time controls 5+5 and then you can do both of us at the same time?

[young swan]

free or paid?

[waxen wraith]

like an hour or so

[rugged cloud]

Yo local add me

[grand salmon]

Want another one?

[high gorge]

Free ofcourse, I'll make use of the free offer.

[young swan]

bio.

[dusky gazelle]

Hi people, how are you?

[rugged cloud]

Add me

[limpid viper]

nrn

[rugged cloud]

i'll create a gc

[limpid viper]

i'll probably be more in the mood for chess tomorrow

[high gorge]

Yes, add me on chesscom, so I can see

[young swan]

alr y'all can try the free plan first and then decide if you want paid

[grand salmon]

Alr man

[young swan]

for free coaching, check my bio

[limpid viper]

i mean you'll probably see me here tomorrow just ask

[kindred crypt]

whats your peak rapid elo?

[high gorge]

Thank you

[rugged cloud]

Yoo bro

[limpid viper]

im at my peak rapid elo

probably cause i stopped playing rapid though

[rugged cloud]

Wanna watch me and local cat or nah

[grand salmon]

1623

[fossil bloom]

4am and I can't sleep, help 🥺

[grand salmon]

Now I'm kinda washed I hadn't played for like 9 months and trying to get back in form

[cloud steeple]

Blue light aint going to help with that

[loud wadi]

@high gorge can you please accept the discord friend request?

[limpid viper]

damn long ass break

[grand salmon]

That's what school does to you

[limpid viper]

just play at school fr

[eternal temple]

Gnarly checkmate

[limpid viper]

i be playing bullet at school

[grand salmon]

I mean I had time to play but I chose not to - I valued my sanity

[eternal temple]

Playing bullet on ur phone is fun

[limpid viper]

i have alot of free time at school personally

[grand salmon]

Believe me, if I wanted I would def play in class

[limpid viper]

nah playing in class is crazy

[limpid viper]

true except im noticeably worse

[eternal temple]

yeah I guess its because of the smaller screen

I prefer the computer

[limpid viper]

part of the reason

[grand salmon]

But with the overall load I had to study and the emotional burden that is chess, I couldn't have both at the same time

[dusky gazelle]

What are you talking about?

[inner condor]

Hey guys

[young swan]

for whoever wants free coaching, or wants to try it out bfr thinking abt paid, look at my bio.

[limpid viper]

another part is cause these dumbasses over at chess.com won't add multiple premoves to apple

why does android only get multiple premoves on phone

[grand salmon]

My brain would probably explode atp

[limpid viper]

emotional burden is crazy

i think i've played enough chess that i just don't really care anymore

reached the hikaru state

[grand salmon]

Lmao

I mean I am generally pretty relaxed while playing chess, but a couple losses in a row really twist my mood, especially if it's due to stupid mistakes or lack of time

[limpid viper]

idk the tilt doesn't even get to me anymore cause i know for sure i can always get back to my current ratings

[ember forum]

🐐

[grand salmon]

I see
Well, I am technically in a 200 elo tilt as well and feel the same way

Though we are in different situations

I stopped playing in the middle of a tilt

[limpid viper]

actually the long tilts do annoy me tbh

[grand salmon]

Yeah it's like you have actually gotten worse

[limpid viper]

im just thinking about that one bullet tilt i had where i stayed up until 2am playing bullet when i had to wake up at 6am the next day

that tilt pmo but in the end i played through it and got back to my original rating

only took like 150 bullet games

[grand salmon]

Especially in lower time controls, it's very easy to keep playing in order to "get your rating back"
Next thing you know, you are 100 elo down

[limpid viper]

true

[balmy python]

sounds like gambling 😭

[grand salmon]

It is not that far honestly

[limpid viper]

im getting better at winning the gambling though

[kindred crypt]

Does magnus carlsen actually have autism or is it just some people talking shit

[limpid viper]

i don't tilt as hard anymore

[grand salmon]

Never heard of that

[limpid viper]

no he does not

[grand salmon]

I mean autism can be useful

[limpid viper]

well not that we'd know

[nimble arch]

ok but he doesnt have it

[kindred crypt]

i heard bobby fischer does

[grand salmon]

Idk if it can make you remember 10000 games

[limpid viper]

idk where you're getting this information from

i mean they could have it but its not like we'd know

[kindred crypt]

yeah. Anyways d4 or e4 which is stronger

[nimble arch]

??

[grand salmon]

e4

[nimble arch]

bros here just to beef

[grand salmon]

Best by test

[nimble arch]

or what

[limpid viper]

they're both equally as strong tbh

i just prefer e4

[kindred crypt]

no?

[grand salmon]

e4 is more fun imo

More open positions

[limpid viper]

b3 more fire though

[nimble arch]

make opponents suffer with closed positons cuz noone likes them fr

[grand salmon]

b3 might be in my nightmares soon

[limpid viper]

why

[kindred crypt]

what about na3

[limpid viper]

just start playing b3 bro

[nimble arch]

or not play b3

[grand salmon]

Hell nah

[nimble arch]

lol

I dont have a problem with b3

but I dont often play it on the first move

[kindred crypt]

Is g3 similar to b3

[nimble arch]

I wouldnt say so

[grand salmon]

Honestly I could play KID against b3 now that I think about it

[nimble arch]

the type of play is different

[balmy python]

i feel like h have to know so much to be a good e4 player c4 feels easier to me

[limpid viper]

i play it mostly in bullet

[nimble arch]

honestly I play b3 vs the KID

[limpid viper]

sometimes in blitz too

[kindred crypt]

im curious which one magnus plays most

[lilac prairie]

Still really cool

[grand salmon]

So it's a bad idea to do the opposite yeah?

[limpid viper]

ngl i gotta equip a d4 opening

[lilac prairie]

Motion picture soundtrack anyone?

[limpid viper]

need more variety tbh

e4 and b3 not enough

[kindred crypt]

ahhhhhhhh im 1/3 in my tournament so far

got paired with a 2k and a 2.3k

[grand salmon]

Honestly learn the english

[kindred crypt]

vro play the jobava

[grand salmon]

Seems way more interesting than anything in d4

[limpid viper]

okay when you say learn don't expect me to go and sit down and learn the opening for hours

[neon forge]

Hi I’m not seeing a fishers chess option on the mobile app

[grand salmon]

Of course not

[opaque summit]

Anyone want to play me in chess I’m only 200 rating

[grand salmon]

Play 1. Nf3

[kindred crypt]

ew

[grand salmon]

I hate to play against it as well

[nimble arch]

uh no. matter of preference

[limpid viper]

2000-2199 bro thought we were falling for this

[opaque summit]

Did I say 200 I forgot one 0

[nimble arch]

honestly good take

[limpid viper]

not like i would've played you even if you were 200

[grand salmon]

Bro is tryna farm 😭

[nimble arch]

0200?

oh wait you said one o

[feral kite]

Top 200 in a single day 💀

[nimble arch]

so 10200?

[limpid viper]

what actually is the jobava

[nimble arch]

wow thats very good

[limpid viper]

i've heard of it multiple times but idk what it is

[nimble arch]

d4 nc3 Bf4

[kindred crypt]

all my opening takes are good bro

[limpid viper]

i see

[heady wedge]

Can someone run an analysis for me on chess.com?

[grand salmon]

play g3 the exact way you are playing b3

[kindred crypt]

i’ll share jobava file

[nimble arch]

no

its not the same thing what

[limpid viper]

bet

[mortal bronze]

is it even possible to catch cheaters in puzzles?

[limpid viper]

no thats yucky

im faithful to my b3

[grand salmon]

Ik but I wanted to see his reply

[kindred crypt]

tho sometimes you have to transpose into london against like b6 e6 nc6 etc

[mortal bronze]

i found my chess.com accounts from 2012

[nimble arch]

??

[main lynx]

Top 6😈

[feral kite]

Lol no

[stray horizon]

its like the london system but somewhat gambit-infused

[mortal bronze]

i might be able to get access to one of those

[nimble arch]

ant what happened to ur ratings

[grand salmon]

Bro just flexing the cc premium 😭

[kindred crypt]

how tf green role bro

[grand salmon]

Man ok we know you are rich bro

[nimble arch]

we have a bongcloud tourney in this server and he won it

had, anyways

[feral kite]

drained a bit so I’m chilling rn

[nimble arch]

pretty sure I was asleep

[heady wedge]

Can someone help me with something small?

[kindred crypt]

how is it gambit infused???

[nimble arch]

it is more agressive tbf

[grand salmon]

What does that mean

[kindred crypt]

but he said “gambit”

[limpid viper]

how long ago was this

[nimble arch]

I cant think of a line where they give up smth

[balmy python]

i need a scandi arena so i can get practice games in with it

[grand salmon]

I don't think gambit is the right word

[nimble arch]

at some point in an attack youd prob have to give up a pawn idk

[kindred crypt]

like a few deep lines

[nimble arch]

hmm maybe like one or two years ago?

[kindred crypt]

not gambit tho

[limpid viper]

i see

why don't they do more tournaments for roles

[kindred crypt]

actually imma make a new file

[nimble arch]

they used to, then people stopped playing them

[kindred crypt]

brb in like 30 mins

[nimble arch]

@nova thunder

he still has his weekly arena winner role

[kindred crypt]

bro left 💀

[nimble arch]

oh btw ran I have 50% on an insane and 30% on an exterme

[kindred crypt]

hes gone

[nimble arch]

u sure bro?

[grand salmon]

Bringing them back from the dead could increase their demand perhaps

[kindred crypt]

@sewer mod not chess related!!!

[nimble arch]

cuz it says this is in my mutral servers

[kindred crypt]

unless my ui is tripping

[nimble arch]

hes sitll here lol

[midnight steppe]

why does people hate london system

[nimble arch]

they have skill issues

[nimble arch]

the roles show for me

[grand salmon]

Idk and I don't care because I don't play d5 against d4

[kindred crypt]

wierd

anyways imma make a file

[nimble arch]

makefile.txt

[grand salmon]

Same

[balmy python]

kings indian best response to d4 🔥🔥

[sudden ledge]

hi everyone

[balmy python]

hi

[grand salmon]

Fr

[pure flame]

any1 else here having classical tourneys coming up?

[grand salmon]

You still haven't connected your account?

[sudden ledge]

no

[lyric pendant]

Mine

[balmy python]

i have a 30d5 tournament next sunday 🔥

[pure flame]

5 delay? that sounds weird IMO

[balmy python]

not quite classical but uscf rates it as classical and rapid

[pure flame]

what kind off tourney?

[lyric pendant]

Classical

[lavish fulcrum]

hi

[balmy python]

yeah i think its so you can keep notation better they add the 5 delay so u have time to write moves sown

[pure flame]

5 sec isnt enough to notate

[lyric pendant]

1:30+30

[kindred crypt]

nvm im to lazy to make the file

[balmy python]

better than nothing lol

[kindred crypt]

im playing in a tournament rn thats 60+5

[pure flame]

you arent forced to notate whenever it is below 30 sec, like below 5 min you dont have to write anymore

[lyric pendant]

1 Hour 3o minutes+30 seconds excrement

[kindred crypt]

its 5 mins no?

[pure flame]

yeah I meant the amount of increment not the amount when you can stop

[kindred crypt]

o nvm

@limpid viper do u want the file

[high gorge]

🔥🔥🔥

[stray horizon]

bad terminology probably, I meant it has more gambit spirit with it being sharper but slightly unsound for playing for an advantage

[limpid viper]

uhh sure

[pure flame]

how many rounds?

[lavish fulcrum]

is Vienna gambit good

[lyric pendant]

6/7

[kindred crypt]

mid

[grand salmon]

Yeah

[lavish fulcrum]

I have been studying it for like 5 hours

[lyric pendant]

Rounds

[lavish fulcrum]

I hope is worth

[stray horizon]

good until players learn to play d5 against it

[grand salmon]

Idk how it scores in higher levels

[stray horizon]

which is idk, 1600?

[lavish fulcrum]

I learned that too

[pure flame]

for me Im gonnna be playing 9 rounds 1:30 + 30+ 30

[balmy python]

how many days?

[near plume]

who is 1000 ?

[grand salmon]

It can still be good if you know your theory

[pure flame]

9

[lavish fulcrum]

I play fxe5 attacking their knight

[balmy python]

o damn they only make u do one per day?

[stray horizon]

yes attack their knight
attack = win

[lavish fulcrum]

also what about low elo, is Vienna gambit good for low elo?

[kindred crypt]

mine is a 2 day tournament

[pure flame]

yeah, rounds start at 1pm

[balmy python]

here in the us its almost always 2 games per day in long classical open tournaments

[stray horizon]

yes

[lavish fulcrum]

yeah obviously that's how it works? wdym

[grand salmon]

Yeah

[lavish fulcrum]

yea I'm low elo

400 rapid

[pure flame]

yeah but that is 1:30 + 30, 1:30+30+30 can take a long time ngl

[grand salmon]

Seems like something that's pretty viable up until 2k or something like that

[stray horizon]

attacks arent inheritly good, if an attack can be easily remedied then it is no good at all

[lavish fulcrum]

I was joking

[stray horizon]

I cant get myself to read that statement in a joking way

[heady wedge]

Can someone do a chess.com analysis for me please ?

[stray horizon]

you seemed genuinely confused

[lyric pendant]

Send the game

i might play in a real classical tournament next month im still trying to decide if its worth spending $250 on entry fee and a hotel room just to probably lose most of my games lol

[pure flame]

stop spamming with random games please guys

[kindred crypt]

its not bro

[stray horizon]

a bit of a pointless thing for me to point out, but usually if someone says they were joking and I didnt realise, when I reread their message I can imagine them joking

but i cant here

[lavish fulcrum]

ok

[heady wedge]

Its helpful

[pure flame]

I am spending 60 in entree fee, and like 300 on B&B for the tourney

[heady wedge]

Not any ai

Fairy SF level 6

[lyric pendant]

It is free for me

[grand salmon]

That's pretty rough tbf

[lavish fulcrum]

nxe4 qf3 nxc3 bxc3

[lyric pendant]

It is an inter school competition

[kindred crypt]

white to play

[pure flame]

not too bad for a 9 day tourney NGL

[stray horizon]

ngl some people have really weird opinions about playing against chess ai (they think its completely useless)

[balmy python]

ya id be spending $250 just for a 3 day

[lavish fulcrum]

queen p-4

[kindred crypt]

i sometimes play against leela odds for swindling

[young swan]

?

[pure flame]

yeah I found a b&b for like 30 a day, so thats pretty cool, it has good reviews so Im happy

[young swan]

woah that is crazy

$250 for a tourney...

[kindred crypt]

bro we just got in a $130 per night

[lavish fulcrum]

tats a lot of money

[stray horizon]

a bit drab if they play nc6 instead of nxc3

[kindred crypt]

chat give me some moves smh

[lavish fulcrum]

resign

[balmy python]

i would try to find someone to split a 2 bed room with but i have insomnia so i would probably keep them up all night and that would just be miserable

[stray horizon]

yes

[lavish fulcrum]

nah it's low elo nobody gonna find that

[cloud steeple]

Is this an active game?

[stray horizon]

yes at 400 its op

[pure flame]

pricing isnt much better, since it is a B&B like would only save a few bucks

[kindred crypt]

no 💀

[heady wedge]

Resign

[lavish fulcrum]

I just won with Vienna gambit a few minutes ago

[grand salmon]

dxc5 does not seem bad

[kindred crypt]

damn bro if im out of prep in that position i should quit chess atp

[kindred crypt]

nc6

[cloud steeple]

then they play Qa5

[heady wedge]

Yeah you definitely should do that

[pure flame]

yeah will be doing the same for one weekend tourney next year, in a hotel which is 400 metres away from the playing hall, 4 day tourney, its pretty cool though

[grand salmon]

Nf3

[stray horizon]

dxc5

[grand salmon]

@stray horizon

[lavish fulcrum]

now opponent has mate in 74

[grand salmon]

Hikaru sees mate in 29 do better

[lavish fulcrum]

I see mate in the resign button

[distant pelican]

Hm...

I really can't see what should be played next. I have doubts with Qf3+.

[cloud steeple]

Queen trade looks good ngl

[lavish fulcrum]

I don't think it looks good

[grand salmon]

It does not look good

Your pawn will never promote

[lavish fulcrum]

the pawn that gets gambitted:

[distant pelican]

Yeah, I'm worried for that g/f-pawn. That's why I'm hesitating if that's the best move so far.

Eh, I'll play it anyway and see if it's right.

[grand salmon]

I would play something like Re8 or Rd8

[distant pelican]

Turns out it is.

[lavish fulcrum]

you should hang your bishop instead

[distant pelican]

The queen would've died if you didn't move it because of Rf4+.

[near helm]

Hie

[grand salmon]

For some reason I thought the square was protected...

Might have to hang the boots atp

[lavish fulcrum]

how I feel after moving my bishop to protect my king from the queen giving check:

[cloud steeple]

here's your review

[balmy python]

im still really new ive only done 2 otb tournaments so far and both were 3 rounds of 30d5 games so i havent ever done a proper classical tournament yet, i think either later this year or next year ill start giving them a try

[pure flame]

this is my 2nd ever classical tourney, have played at a chess club for like 4 years now though

[balmy python]

good luck sir

whats ur otb rating

[pure flame]

its beyond bad, 1814 national and like 1760ish fide

was like 1820 at the start of the year FIDE, and like 1850 national

[balmy python]

bro im only a 1000 uscf lolol never done fide before

[pure flame]

gained 34 rating back in the last tourney, but kinda want to be 1850 FIDE minimum

[balmy python]

but i started learning chess a year ago so i give myself some slack

[grand salmon]

Bro said beyond bad

[pure flame]

I aint, cause I spend more time on chess this college year than on my 2 uni degrees lmao

[grand salmon]

Are we being serious rn

[pure flame]

<1800 FIDE is really bad NGL, people hang everything

[grand salmon]

What is the starting point for fide rating?

[balmy python]

1400

[pure flame]

1400 now

[grand salmon]

Ah yeah I heard something about that recently

Ok then that makes kind of sense

[balmy python]

Do u have a coach or u just study by yourself?

[scarlet arrow]

a 1800F isn't a joke

:p

[pure flame]

I have a coach, meet like approximately 2 times a week

[pure flame]

it is, dont kid yourself, everything below 2k is amateur lmao

[balmy python]

o dang i dont technically have one but i met an old guy at the local chess club this week and hes been helping me out a little

[scarlet arrow]

1800F don't hang pieces randomly eh

[balmy python]

hes 1776 uscf and i drew against him as black in a kings indian i was really happy with that one

[kindred crypt]

kings indian is the best opening

[pure flame]

they do just not on move 8

[cloud steeple]

so real

[scarlet arrow]

actually one 1850F (before the rating change) hang his knight in 10 moves against me once

in classical ofc

that was during my placement games

[balmy python]

He had a winning ending against me but he missed a pawn sac that was the only winning plan and i was able to swindle a draw by prepetual because i wouldve been able to promote my pawn if he didnt repeat moves

[open heron]

@scarlet arrow how to update title on chess.com?

[pure flame]

Ive seen a 1660 hang this,

e4 c5 c3 d5 exd5 Qxd5 Nf3 Bg4 Be2 Nc6 d4 cxd4 cxd4 Bxf3?? Bxf3 Qxd4???? in classical

the game was done in <15 min

[opaque summit]

Nemo

[sudden roost]

nemo

[inland abyss]

Alapin

[scarlet arrow]

it was in an alapin too

bro played Ne5 while my Nf3 was pinned

but but but

his queen was under attack when taking knight

[pure flame]

wtf was Bxf3 though ....

[scarlet arrow]

[grand salmon]

W alapin tho

[pure flame]

alapin is so stupid, its way too drawish

[kindred crypt]

alapin overglazed by 1200s

[inland abyss]

bro even people in bullet dont blunder this somehow

[pallid delta]

I love how everyone is ignoring me today

[kindred crypt]

true

[grand salmon]

Idk about higher elo I have been liking it in 1500-1600

[kindred crypt]

i rejoice when i see alapin in blitz

free easy position

[inland abyss]

same but sicillian

[kindred crypt]

whats a sicillian

[grand salmon]

You didn't say shit

[inland abyss]

another free win

[lavish epoch]

Chat why are they trying to hard to trade his queen do they not see the skewer

[lavish epoch]

Or the fork

[grand salmon]

we are not going to see 10 pics bro

[lavish epoch]

I shoulda used the rook for check to win the queen...

[pallid delta]

Other servers my friend

[scarlet arrow]

800 elo

[pallid delta]

And irl

[lavish epoch]

Ive seen smarter people when i was 500 elo

[scarlet arrow]

sandbaggers / smurfs

maybe

[lavish epoch]

Nah I mean like mostly everyone

[scarlet arrow]

pool hell

[inland abyss]

chess has nothing with being smart bro

[scarlet arrow]

[lavish epoch]

[grand salmon]

This is not a therapy server

[inland abyss]

if they were smart they would have quit chess

[lavish epoch]

When tf did they suggest that

[kindred crypt]

your winrate with the alapin is only like 52% lmao

[pallid delta]

No shit dickwad

[lavish epoch]

Well they aren't if they blundered their queen like 10 times

[grand salmon]

It gives you a small head start doesn't it

[inland abyss]

I think its like 58% also I play many higher rated players in alapin

[steel salmon]

why does the countrysaurus bot play better than all the intermediate bots

[lavish epoch]

Because roar

[sudden roost]

https://tenor.com/view/pocoyo-gif-27040523

[kindred crypt]

nvm i js looked at your stats

ts aint 58% 🥀

[grand salmon]

Who would name that thing countrysaurus

[lavish epoch]

Pocoyo

[sudden roost]

[inland abyss]

wow sorry because your cherrypicked the line all 2400s play

[kindred crypt]

its the mainline lmfao

[pallid ice]

U have to add these up tho

[inland abyss]

still not the most played by my range

[kindred crypt]

you score worse in the mainline of your opening 💀

[lavish epoch]

The fact this is from a laufey server 😭💙

[sudden roost]

laufey fans love pocoyo

[lavish epoch]

Makes sense

[inland abyss]

bro literally check all people who play the real mainline are my matches with friends

[lavish epoch]

I like sum of her songs I cant remember the names tho she's lowkey a vibe tho

[sudden roost]

laufeyyy

[lavish epoch]

I listen to a lot of artists without knowing much abt them either way 😬

I got like 200 songs in my playlist

💙🩷🤍🩷💙

[lavish epoch]

203, 12 hours and 3 minutes

[kindred crypt]

below your rating

[opaque summit]

Nemooo

[inland abyss]

[kindred crypt]

stop making excuses and start prepping vro

[opaque summit]

Have you tried delayed alapin

[lavish epoch]

Dawg that's actually a fair excuse

Youre using info from every game

Results vary based on time frame

[inland abyss]

I am expected to lose like 90% of the time against 400+ my prep doesnt matter

[kindred crypt]

skill issue bro

[high gorge]

I was today years old, When I found out about this website,

[grand salmon]

I got 58% wr with the alapin

[inland abyss]

[opaque summit]

[kindred crypt]

You think my little brother cooked?

[fallow frost]

one of my opponents resigned with 3 queens on the board

[kindred crypt]

Well be surprised he some how won

[high gorge]

Fear, Untill the queen slides behind the Knight, and you take the rook and lose your queen

[opaque summit]

I do that sometimes I played someone who was really bad and I resigned or I offer a draw after a really bad blunder lmao

[opaque summit]

You made that?

[grand salmon]

Yeah

[high gorge]

Oh nevermind, it's a discovered check, fear indeed

[opaque summit]

Sick af geeen dong pawn

[grand salmon]

Thanks bro

[fallow frost]

[balmy python]

albert

[keen hearth]

Queen from Z 9?

[grand salmon]

[opaque summit]

He must’ve felt really bad

[soft moss]

[grand salmon]

No way bro changed it

[opaque summit]

200 …

[grand salmon]

What will dahlia think about this

[soft moss]

[opaque summit]

Bishop Z47

[balmy python]

1058

was 1069 nice but then i got 2.5/4 in the 30+0 tournament earlier and lost a bunch bc my opponents were a little lower rated

[high gorge]

The damn Snipers

[soft moss]

ALWAYS THE DAMN SNIPERS

[verbal berry]

I got my first chessboard as a gift for my 7th birthday, haven't played chess on it since. I found it randomly a few weeks ago, so I started playing chess online a bit

[grand salmon]

I swear the chess gods just spawn them at some point

It's the same thing in clash royale

[opaque summit]

How long has it been

[opaque summit]

CLASH ROYALE?

[verbal berry]

Since?

[grand salmon]

Precisely

[opaque summit]

Yeah

[verbal berry]

Since I got the chessboard? Like 8 years

[opaque summit]

You play merge tactics yet or hit 10k on trophy road

[opaque summit]

Time to grind

[grand salmon]

When your opponent places a mega knight, a balloon, and a hog rider in 2 seconds, then something is up

[grand salmon]

I have only been playing since last month

[opaque summit]

I despise mega knight. If I could delete one card from the game it’s mega knight

[opaque summit]

And they gave it an evo 🤮🤢🤮🤢

[grand salmon]

Haven't seen evo mega knight yet, prob because I am kinda low in trophies

[opaque summit]

Im at like 9850 trying to get to 10k since they raised it another 1k

Which is cool cause I’ve been 9k since they made it 9k lol

[atomic laurel]

who whants to do a chess match my elo is 500

[opaque summit]

Meeee

[grand salmon]

Can't you get to like 15k now?

[atomic laurel]

user

[opaque summit]

10k is cap

[grand salmon]

Ah ok must have got confused

[opaque summit]

What’s yours I’ll make an unrated game

[hushed loom]

Y everyone here is just 200-800 elo

[sand fiber]

[hushed loom]

Did u know if u played simply ur gonna be 1000 in 1 day💀💀

[sand fiber]

yeah but that takes like hours

[atomic laurel]

i was just 500 elo

a few seconds ago

[sand fiber]

someone took a entire week taking HOURS on each day just to get 400 elo more (1600 to 2000)

[hushed loom]

2hours to get 900

[sand fiber]

lucku

[hushed loom]

I did

[steel salmon]

ok apparently playing the danish gambit makes me play like a 400

[hushed loom]

I was 1700,3w ago
I prepared a repertoire
I solved a lot of puzzels
I studied the middle game of my openings
N i got my highest 1998

[sand fiber]

anyway

[steel salmon]

lost like 5 games in a row to lichess stockfish lv 3, and the last one had me TWO ROOKS UP in the middlegame

[sand fiber]

**

[hushed loom]

But I faved a lot of cheaters afterwards so I'm stuck rn(1970-1990

[stray horizon]

Rapid?

[hushed loom]

Yp

[sand fiber]

name a opening

[stray horizon]

There's not many cheaters in 1900 rapid icl

[sand fiber]

or first move youd make in a game

[stray horizon]

I think u have a little paranoia

[hushed loom]

1m

[stray horizon]

1 million cheatera

[wanton badge]

There’s a cheater right now in 450 BLITZ and it’s so funny to watch 😭

[hushed loom]

U sure?

[wanton badge]

One game he’s 96% accuracy in 37 moves the next game he’s 43% accuracy

[atomic laurel]

is caro kann or sicillian better

[stray horizon]

Unusual I've not got that in a few months

[hushed loom]

I got a lot rly a lot of cheaters

[stray horizon]

Though I only started playing alot again less than a month ago

[sand fiber]

3421 days ago a specific person got alot of hate, until about 2957 days ago, it stopped

[hushed loom]

Maybe its just a bad luck

[stray horizon]

Ive played like 150 games and only 1 guy I was sus of

[hushed loom]

There are more

I think maybe 9 or smth

[mortal bronze]

i have only faced one cheater so far this year

[hushed loom]

Sure whats bad when ur against a fish playing

[atomic laurel]

can anyone teach me how to defeat a london user im going against one rn

[rich sapphire]

Neither is better or worse, it's up to your playstyle

[grand salmon]

Both are good
Sicilian is more theoretically solid and allows attacking play from both sides
Caro kann is a bit less theoretically demanding, but still a very solid opening that your opponent could struggle to crack

[hushed loom]

I mean ur not goin to suffucate ,,
Or u will...

[hushed loom]

Just play simply

[grand salmon]

Play whatever you want really

[grand salmon]

I might literally get banned if I say anything

[atomic laurel]

they have the center

[hushed loom]

Caro kan is better for new players
Scilian for agressive one

[hushed loom]

No they dont

[atomic laurel]

well

[rich sapphire]

I'll tell you what to do. Checkmate them.

[vernal sinew]

He's only around 100 points higher rated in rapid it's a bit unusual to get coaching with that gap

[young swan]

peak 2194 rapid, 2155 blitz, 2050 bullet

[hushed loom]

He said there is free

[stray horizon]

[hushed loom]

[young swan]

[stray horizon]

Hack

[young swan]

nope.

[hushed loom]

Heighest 1998
How much to get 2100?

[stray horizon]

I used to believe people like that until I saw every one of them eventually get banned

Now I no longer believe

[hushed loom]

@stray horizon u gotta see there ideas first

[stray horizon]

Not joking

Like I don't mean like coach me long term

[hushed loom]

Can u come vc

[stray horizon]

Sure

[hushed loom]

At 2p

[young swan]

[eternal temple]

Raghhhh traxler in bullet

[hushed loom]

That was imbarissiñg

😂

[young swan]

[hushed loom]

Wdym wdym?

[young swan]

[hushed loom]

Well not yet

[mint adder]

Second day of my OTB tournament

[young swan]

I don't understand this. is this our rates for paid coaching? or what

[mint adder]

Round 1’s gonna start wish me luck

[hushed loom]

I beleive I can after som perprations

[young swan]

gl

[hushed loom]

How much I'm going to take till becoming 2100 after u coach me
N how much mney u take per hour

[opaque summit]

gl flanny

[stray horizon]

I appreciate his effort but he was like "this is the sveshnikov, in this opening white has good control of the D5 Square and D6 is weak, black tries to play D5 or F5" then he couldn't really remember anything else

[somber kindle]

Opponent left the game🤣

[young swan]

I can't give any hard time guarantees, depends on your interest, potential and other factors.

but it's hard. if I have to estimate I'll say 1-2 months, because 1900-2100 is a BIG JUMP, even though it's js 200 elo away

the paid rate is $15 per hour btw

[hushed loom]

R U Fr

People pay that much for chesss

[stray horizon]

Yes that is cheap for coaching

[opaque summit]

bro some people pay like 50$ an hour lmao

[young swan]

that is affordable idk what you're talking abt

[stray horizon]

From titled players it is like 50$

[hushed loom]

Wtf

[wanton badge]

Bro it goes up to $200 an hour

[hushed loom]

Whattt

[young swan]

I am an AFM does this count as a title 😭

[stray horizon]

It's really not worth imo

[hushed loom]

[stray horizon]

Like of course there is value from coaching

[hushed loom]

I can become 1900 by myself

2100*

[stray horizon]

But not 50$ an hour worth of coaching

[opaque summit]

if you cant afford it learn from free sources like youtube, or read books

[wanton badge]

Chrss is complex af i know high school kids parents paying 90+ an hour for grade 12 maths tutoring lmfO

[hushed loom]

I'll try

[young swan]

oh and ofc my basic plan ;))

[hushed loom]

Idk but this is to much for me no thank u

[radiant swan]

i don't see anything wrong about that

[stray horizon]

I might start coaching sub 1500s for like 5$ an hour

[young swan]

yeah, you can stick to my basic plan then

[hushed loom]

I don't understand what is if

[young swan]

this is also nice rates, you can def do $10 and still get students

[young swan]

you're not in chessbridge yet are you 😭

[hushed loom]

Bro 10$ i buy like 10 breads with it
Thats to much

[grand salmon]

Bro if I am paying 200 an hour I expect to be CM by next tuesday

[radiant swan]

sir get your blitz AND YOUR BULLET up 😔

[opaque summit]

10 breads?

[stray horizon]

I don't need money really I think 5$ is actually reasonable for something that's only an hour long

[hushed loom]

Its hard here in Gaza

[young swan]

I mean you have enough money to get a device and get on discord :((

[young swan]

oh rip. that's understandable

[cloud steeple]

Yeah $5 is quite a cheap rate for an hour of your time

[hushed loom]

Told ya

[young swan]

you never told me you're in the middle of a warzone

[hushed loom]

Now i did

[young swan]

now I know

why tf would I wanna see that :((

[radiant swan]

nono thanks sir

[hushed loom]

Idk 😂

[young swan]

lol ikr

[opaque summit]

how is gaza doing

[young swan]

even $15 for an hour is cheap, but we think it'll be good

[hushed loom]

Dying slowly

[opaque summit]

is your family gonna flee or stay

[limpid viper]

just get a job atp

[radiant swan]

tbh anyone can get like 2000 without a coach

[young swan]

true. but some can't.

[radiant swan]

u dont need a coach to play good chess

[hushed loom]

It sounds like ur israily guy

Stay forever 💪

[radiant swan]

they can

[kindred crypt]

Yo

[young swan]

i am one of the lucky few to get 2100 from 500 without a coach

[opaque summit]

im american lol

[cloud steeple]

W

[young swan]

hi Hikaru, are you the pregnant man? will your son be a GM? will he beat you?

[hushed loom]

Same thing

[opaque summit]

nah

[radiant swan]

anyone bro

[young swan]

he ignored me

[opaque summit]

i got to 200 without a coach..

[radiant swan]

speaking personally cuz i managed 2100 in 1 year

[cloud steeple]

I think having a coach would just speed up the process

[stray horizon]

I thought that large majority got there without a coach

[young swan]

better than me. I got 2100 in 2 years

[grand salmon]

anyone really as long as they put effort

[stray horizon]

Like very large majority

[radiant swan]

yeah that's what I'm saying

[young swan]

I haven't seen much then

[radiant swan]

it speeds up the process but you can very much do it yourself

[hushed loom]

I'm getting 2100 in one month

[wanton badge]

🤣 better be my chef and personal trainer too

[young swan]

its easier if you have a coach, and more faster as the other guy said

[opaque summit]

new world record

[kindred crypt]

Not sure

[stray horizon]

I perceive most 2000+ rapid players to either be kids and teenagers who play alot and learn fast or middle aged guys who have been playing for ages

[opaque summit]

im watching hikaru play the chesszilla bot video rn

[stray horizon]

I haven't really met many chess players who get coaching in general

[young swan]

@floral quail

[radiant swan]

spoiler ||he got beat up||

[hushed loom]

Ur saying that coaching isn't goin to help as much as self-learning?

[grand salmon]

Right? Bro better clean my dishes as well

[young swan]

I js understood your username 😭

[stray horizon]

No I'm just saying that I haven't really met many chess players who get coaching in general

[young swan]

you play the grob don't you

[opaque summit]

chess coach is just gonna tell you shit you can look up on your own

[young swan]

are you accusing me of tomfoolery, foul knave??

[hushed loom]

Thats why I'm paying 15$?

[radiant swan]

i got 900 rapid games 💀

[opaque summit]

the difference is a coach and answer your questions and help you personally

[hushed loom]

@young swan whats the diffrence between 2000 and 2100

[young swan]

lots

[grand salmon]

A good coach should be more than just that

[young swan]

stronger positional play
better nerves
less hanging pieces
to name a few

[hushed loom]

Yt I watch consider 2100 as week players

💀💀

[floral trellis]

Nice I got all 5

[young swan]

My paid plan is projected to first look at previous games to identify a concept they lacked, train them in said concept, then play some diagnostic games to evaluate if they understood

[floral trellis]

Killer King?? How tf

[young swan]

homework would go like this:
example: find a master game that demonstrates the concept, and explain it to me in next session

[south token]

Easy af bruh

[stray horizon]

I was talking about rating

[limpid viper]

people pay to do homework?

[opaque summit]

you dont have killer king

[young swan]

did you understand only that aspect of my coaching

[grand salmon]

That's a good way to go about it, but to my mind, it seems like that's just one of many stages of coaching a student

[limpid viper]

ya

[hushed loom]

I can ceck mate with all the pieces on first rank

[young swan]

I had a castle checkmate and it gave me nothing

[floral trellis]

Well shit never did it that way before

[young swan]

yeah I can't obv say everything here, can I

I'll get CTS trying to type all that shi out

[floral trellis]

Was that your first one?

[grand salmon]

Apparently there is a secret achievement or something like that

[radiant swan]

ik u said 2000+ rapid players either are kids tht learn by playing a lot or are middle aged ppl tht played for ages
js confirming

[hushed loom]

Also with a bishop and knight

[young swan]

it literally gave me nothing, I'll show it to you

[opaque summit]

you just have to be in a position to where you move your king and it causes the enemy king to be checkmated by other pieces

[floral trellis]

Gotcha, I rarely move my king that’s the reason why

[limpid viper]

2000 rapid players are just 500 blitz players

[opaque summit]

do a ladder mate but have the king block the last piece then move it to deliver mate

[hushed loom]

@limpid viper I'm 1600 blitz

[stray horizon]

It's funny how much blitz variation is in 2000+ rapid

[hushed loom]

1900 r

[stray horizon]

Between 1300 and 2100 blitz

[grand salmon]

Not a lot of people play blitz ig

[limpid viper]

rapid is just the weakest time control

[young swan]

Did you join chessbridge?

[floral trellis]

Could a castle checkmate work too or is that a Rook Checkmate

[hushed loom]

@young swan whats this

[radiant swan]

yes i am 500 strength but my opps suck even more so i manage 2100

[stray horizon]

Ngl every single 2000+ blitz game that I see or game review seems alot higher quality than the ones I was playing at 2000 blitz

[limpid viper]

real

[young swan]

Link in my bio, it's my coaching organization

[opaque summit]

the king would have to be in front of the rook and then move the king causing the rook to deliver mate

[stray horizon]

Like I be hanging multiple pieces per game and I just don't see that that much elsewhere

[floral trellis]

I got you

[hushed loom]

@hushed loom done

[kindred crypt]

anyone play the sicilian

[opaque summit]

i dont know if castle mate would work but that would be harder than just doing it with other pieces lmao

[hushed loom]

[kindred crypt]

[patent patrol]

Yeah ke2emmanuel Lasker

[stray horizon]

Shame

[patent patrol]

Or his cousin I forgot there were 2 laskers

[stray horizon]

I remember it was because he didn't want his opponent to be known for losing that game

[kindred crypt]

[distant pelican]

Chat, why does this win material?

[limpid viper]
