Bh3 gxh3, forced mate gg

[rich sapphire]

Oh you're watching the Grand Swiss

[fading quiver]

Just do capablanca style of chess

[slow folio]

my brain is absolutely cooked after watching this match ah-

[rich sapphire]

You should watch the commentary

[slow folio]

yeah

[slow folio]

bro they are GMs 💀

[rich sapphire]

Is there commentary for Grand Swiss?

[pseudo garden]

I'll be back I need to move across the entire building

[slow folio]

bf3 played

[tawdry eagle]

rxf7+ ke6 bc4+ kd6 rxd7# was the continuation

[stone grail]

Nordirbek's position looks like he's being crushed?

[north ocean]

bh3 is still a good move even if he doesnt take

[slow folio]

yes but I only care abt this match

[tawdry eagle]

he couldve played kd6 but he didnt

also its brilliant in game review

[slow folio]

so that's why I just don't watch commentary

[solemn moss]

Why there are differences between normal 400 elo and 400 elo players in tournaments 😭💀

[rich sapphire]

Qxf5 feels obvious but this is insane

[north ocean]

look at this beauty

[slow folio]

what should be the move for Firouzja now

[dense cliff]

Qf5 how is black winning

[slow folio]

o alrighty

[tawdry eagle]

crazy i was thinking qxf5

[north ocean]

I knew he'd go bh3/bf33

[rich sapphire]

That was my idea too

[slow folio]

qxf5 then g6

[dense cliff]

how's the engine?

[tawdry eagle]

whats the idea if u take the bishop

[north ocean]

its too good to pass up. bf3/bh3 lead to mate if u take. albeit bf3 is slightly worse but more secure if he doesnt take

[slow folio]

maybe qc6?

[rich sapphire]

Wdym

[slow folio]

like aiming white's king weakness-f3 pawn

[rich sapphire]

I'm looking at this without an engine

[north ocean]

a forced checkmate

[slow folio]

scary to think

[dense cliff]

how?

[tawdry eagle]

yes but where

[stone grail]

did i cook?

[tawdry eagle]

because i think white queen is in good position to defend

[rich sapphire]

Qxf5 Bxg2 Re1 and idk what black is doing like Bf3 again doesn't threaten anything anymore

[north ocean]

via qc6 and bringing the queen to the g file next qg6

[tawdry eagle]

yea

[dense cliff]

qc6 then i take on f5

[tawdry eagle]

qd1 stops it no?

[rich sapphire]

Qc6 etc

[slow folio]

@mint adder btw are you cooking your new vid?

[stone grail]

ok ty

[tawdry eagle]

but ig king is still exposed so its losing

[north ocean]

ah i see. see with bh3 (my suggested move) that doesnt work

its a poisonsed pawn with bh3 but not bf3

[slow folio]

tbf

[north ocean]

@dense cliff theres literally so many moves that lose and that is the only move to stop the winning idea

[slow folio]

Black has attacking advantage and white has material advantage

just bcuz they have to find a lot of ONLY moves

[rich sapphire]

That's how fried liver goes and I hate playing games like this

Defending

[dense cliff]

i think it still loses cuz the queen will have to take the knight and black is better off

[west pivot]

do people play 3 min or 5 min blitz more

[tawdry eagle]

does anyone wanna play unrated any tc

[rich sapphire]

3

[north ocean]

ur not afraid of qxf3?

[dense cliff]

i am haha, I'm saying white is lost

[reef canyon]

i hope gukesh gets this in the bag 2 loss streak gotta feel terrible

[north ocean]

thats why i was like wtf is qxf5 lol. the game is lost

[mint adder]

Not that one

but yes I’m in the process of making one

Editing is lowkey fun when you lock in and actually doo it

[slow folio]

gukesh playing as black?

[slow folio]

naisu

[dense cliff]

I mean, there's no alternative. it could work if there were enough checks but the black king hides in g8

[limpid viper]

@azure pivot i managed not to tilt are you proud of me

[north ocean]

why are u playing on when there's a mate on g2 that isnt defended by any of ur pieces tho

[pseudo garden]

When was the last time Magnus lost 2 games in a row?

[limpid viper]

i was playing garbage hanging mates and shit but i kept playinag

imma stop now cause im a snail today

[dense cliff]

if you defend the pawn you get mated with Qg6 Qg2

[north ocean]

the pawn? the g2 square is # for black (white loses because of knight+queen tagteam on g2)

[slow folio]

welcome back!

[stone grail]

is nihal's king cooked yet? i think maybe black will have c4 or d5 if Rc3 after stacking both rooks

[north ocean]

Knight sorry not king lmao

[dense cliff]

yes

[north ocean]

Yeah. its not defendable so why even go qxf5 i dont get it

like bf3 is just instantly winning the match if white takes

[dense cliff]

what else do you play? that's my question

[slow folio]

chat look how the frick happened when I turn on the analysis-

[stone grail]

what about Nc5 to trade knights?

[north ocean]

the reason you play a move is because you can see a defense. if you play qxf5, what is the idea to stop the mate on g2

[reef canyon]

i think the pawns should provide ample protection

[dense cliff]

I'm saying Qf5 after taking the bishop

[pseudo garden]

[slow folio]

it's too complicated that great moves just showing up a lot and even a brilliant move 💀

[junior void]

Pretty even as the eval says

[north ocean]

Yep. And what's the idea to stop the mate on g2 from black? Like, you play qxf5 because its the only move but why are you saying its the only move

[dense cliff]

because it is? prove me otherwise

[slow folio]

bro I swear Parham is shocking the chess world rn 💀

[north ocean]

no I believe you, im just asking you why you'd play on instead of resigning - you must see a way to stop the forced mate

[slow folio]

like no one expected him to be the sole leader like today-

[stone grail]

idk who is that guy tbh

[slow folio]

Firouzja found the only move again chat

[dense cliff]

yo

[slow folio]

same

[tawdry eagle]

crazy

[north ocean]

@dense cliff i thought it was immediately winning, u stumped me with qxf5, im asking what you saw

[dense cliff]

i had seen Qe5 with interesting threats

[north ocean]

I then saw qxf3 after, so what was your idea to stop the mate on g2 as a result of that?

[slow folio]

and now where will nodirbek go?

[junior void]

He would not have blundered into gxf3 anyway

[dense cliff]

like taking the rook with check or something but it doesn't work

[west pivot]

can anyone teach me a good white opening in vc pls

[rich sapphire]

Chess base India the only live commentary for Grand Swiss 😭

[north ocean]

threats? its checkmate on the next move on the g2 square for the 100th time. what threat?

[stone grail]

i swear the game is just great-counter great and only a moment of brilliance

[junior void]

Are we talking about firouzja game

[dense cliff]

why are you after my ass bro 😭

[north ocean]

bruh, the game where u just said u go qxf5

or whoever said it

[limpid viper]

why would you need more

[slow folio]

ikr that's why I feel this match is the best match of round 7

[junior void]

What? When did I say a game about Qxf5

[pseudo garden]

Bro these GM positions

[stone grail]

how will y all active the a4 knight?

[north ocean]

sorry my bad wasnt u then

[north ocean]

wdym after your ass? LOL im just asking you how you knew it wasnt insta losing with qxf5 do you not know why you play a move ?

[tawdry eagle]

probably ne2+

[slow folio]

we all know it's never gonna happen at our level 💀

[pseudo garden]

Maybe c5 Idk

[dense cliff]

Qc6 how does white answer?

[limpid viper]

by moving it

[slow folio]

bxf4

[pseudo garden]

How do they make the positions so complicated in the endgames

[rich sapphire]

True. They're good and entertaining but I was hoping for more options

[tawdry eagle]

takes the knight with bishop

[dense cliff]

I'm over 2000 i kinda know how chess works bro

[slow folio]

it was already complicated in the openings coach 💀

[north ocean]

thats pretty obvious . you open the e file and check with the rook

[limpid viper]

vro who even listens to the commentary anyway

[pseudo garden]

They love complicated I guess

Just like their love lives

[junior void]

Possibly Be1

[limpid viper]

whenever the commentators start talking you gotta just mute the stream vro

[slow folio]

it was already way back here

[rich sapphire]

Yeah it's not like they're gms

[broken flower]

Me because i can’t concentrate

https://tenor.com/view/ipad-kid-playing-minecraft-and-watching-youtube-shorts-ipad-kid-thingstoryx-gif-4913695962410316975

[limpid viper]

try concentrating then

[north ocean]

u have a bishop that hasnt moved, and by taking on f4 you literally develop both ur rooks, you open the e file to check the king, and u get rid of one of blacks scariest pieces rn @dense cliff

[broken flower]

I can’t

[pseudo garden]

At best it's just background noise while I'm focusing on something else

[slow folio]

yeah cuz if they don't do it complicatedly then it's just a perfect draw-

[dense cliff]

makes sense ty

[jade kite]

only 2 devices?

[limpid viper]

then try harder

[broken flower]

One device isnt visible, if you know what i mean 😛

[north ocean]

then why cant you give me an answer? why are u saying qxf5 in a line that is forcibly losing? surely a 2000 can see that

[limpid viper]

is lil bud on creative mode no wonder he's bored

[loud dome]

I play this line 🥹

[pseudo garden]

I do imagine it's hard to attack when your opponent's defenses make up an entire Clash of Clans base

[dense cliff]

we were discussing possible moves, if your option is resign then stay quiet

[pseudo garden]

Hi Sleepio

[molten fiber]

Scipio africanus ?

[slow folio]

yah 💀

[dense cliff]

it's enough to understand game mechanics

[tawdry eagle]

yup

[limpid viper]

no i've met multiple 2000s who don't know how their pieces move

i mean if they did they wouldn't hang shit

[north ocean]

you said qxf5, how are you stopping the mating threat on g2? Why are you playing qxf5 its all im asking - are you just taking the pawn because its fun ?

[dense cliff]

sorry i forgot to mention I am 2000+ FIDE

[pseudo garden]

[pseudo garden]

Kakarotto

[hexed oracle]

wouldnt d3 be better?

[tawdry eagle]

qb7 also maybe

[hexed oracle]

then you take their knight with the bishop?

[reef canyon]

wtf is this game

[tawdry eagle]

bxf4 gng

[limpid viper]

okay beginner level might've been an exaggeration

[north ocean]

wdym how does that defend g2

[limpid viper]

2000 is like intermediate vro

[tawdry eagle]

crzy

[stone grail]

Qc6 to pin the pawn on d4

[rich sapphire]

He's finding all the moves

[north ocean]

@hexed oracle look at the image and the g2 square you have to defend that or you are getting checkmated on the next move

[stone grail]

this is gonna be the game of the 21st century i guess?

[reef canyon]

bit of a stretch to call it that

[slow folio]

again what is white's only move here?

[young swan]

Hi y'all

[hexed oracle]

wait it is black to move?

[north ocean]

qxf5 is a black move, yes

[slow folio]

NAH NVM SOMEONE POSTED IT LOL

[hexed oracle]

ah k

[stone grail]

Yeah, I think so...

[tawdry eagle]

[reef canyon]

gxf3, gotta remove that dangerous bishop

[pseudo garden]

I'm gonna go catch the bus now

[dense cliff]

any chess player with experience would consider this move

[pseudo garden]

Tty later 👋

[slow folio]

alrighty maybe cya on the bus lol

[tawdry eagle]

lol

[young swan]

My elo is going crazy

[north ocean]

yep and after i defend the pawn and any stop more checks you still have the same problem, the mate threat on g2. what is your solution to stop it? its on the next move

[reef canyon]

black can reply with Nf4 but it's still anyone's game

[winter grove]

I'll play you later

[azure pivot]

What’s the move

[dense cliff]

defend the pawn? that's not even winning, you have to take on f3

[slow folio]

rg1

[tawdry eagle]

rg1

[azure pivot]

ah makes sense

[limpid viper]

ok imma keep playing

[stone grail]

da former world cheat champion is also cookin

[limpid viper]

hopefully i don't touch 1700 today

[slow folio]

OH NO IT'S A MISTAKE BY NODIRBEK

[rich sapphire]

That's crazy

[north ocean]

the hanging pawn that comes with check after you take on e5?

[dense cliff]

yeah

[reef canyon]

the idea why it's a mistake is like 4-5 moves deep lmfao

[winter grove]

h2 ._.

[reef canyon]

this game is absolute chaos

[slow folio]

ye lmao

[north ocean]

this pawn, hello

[stone grail]

Maybe we'll have a great or brilliant from Firouja?

[slow folio]

if d5 then it's a great move according to Stockfish

[timber badge]

meow

[tawdry eagle]

what does white even play here

[azure pivot]

get out

[nocturne plover]

Na how does that after Bxe5, is it Nc5!

[north ocean]

bruh what are u saying? you already know i took on f3. How would there be a mating threat on g2 if my queen wasn't on f3? please enlighten me

[timber badge]

:c

[radiant swan]

[dense cliff]

let's play some bullet to see if things are that obvious to you

[radiant swan]

my day has been made

[timber badge]

[stone grail]

Can someone explain ths?

[timber badge]

[nocturne plover]

Anyone wanna hop for a game?

[timber badge]

nah

[radiant swan]

no chance noob 2245 can beat 2600

[tawdry eagle]

take pony i suppose

[slow folio]

maybe aim to eliminate the knight for some future tactics?

[timber badge]

only the deserving get lucky in chess fr

[dense cliff]

if you're that good you immediately see a move is bad, then beat me at bullet, just once ah

[junior void]

Avoid unfavourable trade of bishop + threaten to weaken black pawn structure with Bxa6

[nocturne plover]

Did bro untilt🥶I need to play bro

[zealous marsh]

@azure pivot I think I'm changing my profession 🥀

I give up on chess

[tawdry eagle]

tf is this gng

[radiant swan]

it was around a month ago bro

[north ocean]

there's a mate threat with the queen and the knight, a very simple mating pattern you learn at 700 elo. that is the idea behind playing bh3/bf3, if you take, then g2 loses to the knight+queen mate. If you play pawn takes bishop, it means that you don't see that. So im asking u, after qxf5 what hope did you see to continue the game instead of just knowing it was lost due to the simple mate?

[azure pivot]

Lemme join u I started playing again today

Got a 2nd and first as beginner🙏

[hexed oracle]

I got the board game at home

[zealous marsh]

I've been COOKING dude

[slow folio]

oh no Tennyson continutes his loss streaks 💀

[zealous marsh]

2 grandmasters in 2 days

[dense cliff]

I'm sorry if you lowkey believe you're smart for discarding a move of mine, you're the noob one here

[slow folio]

yo Jackson

[north ocean]

Im not discarding anything Im asking you why tf you played the move cause any normal player can see that its mate in two and u cant defend it

[azure pivot]

Let’s run a game rn bro

[timber badge]

out of context:

[zealous marsh]

nah man I'm drained gng, I played a 1.5 hour game

[vivid cedar]

i cant rep the dc tag bc im not gm it feels wrong

[tawdry eagle]

what

[azure pivot]

😭definitely played fixed

[stone grail]

That was surprising

[dense cliff]

do you expect your opponents to resign? play against me with material advantage, you'll still lose

[zealous marsh]

It was a 3-way progressive stalemate but ok

[azure pivot]

Nice

What map

[north ocean]

not at all. but i expect them to have an intention behind a move when they're about to lose instantly on the next turn unless they stop and think how to prevent

[zealous marsh]

Do you not see the Scandinavian outline at the top of my screenshot 🥀

[loud dome]

e3 would lose to Nxd4 I guess

[unborn glade]

Assuming both players played perfectly, do you think this game would end as a win for black or as a draw?

(Idk the answer, just curious about your thought process)

[zealous marsh]

Europe advanced caps, the meta settings ofc

[azure pivot]

I’m a bullet player I don’t pay attention to things🥀

[north ocean]

you dont just take the pawn on f5 because its hanging and thats the only move. you consider black is going to win the game if you dont plan out your next few moves, because g2 is ## night night. you focus on the g2 square. @dense cliff

[azure pivot]

High skill game

[nocturne plover]

You up for a game?

[loud dome]

Sure

[winter grove]

Did he not have Bf1?

[north ocean]

do you just play hope chess at 2k elo? i imagine you cant get to 2k elo without planning your opponents ideas. @dense cliff

[azure pivot]

I played 2 6 way classic fixed games today💀

[hidden knoll]

anyone 1200 wanna play?

[dense cliff]

I don't need your chess lessons lmaoo

[azure pivot]

Is this tough

[winter grove]

I've been staring at it for like 5 mins now

[zealous marsh]

That's just a meatgrinder bro 💀

[tawdry eagle]

probably draw given that black is only a pawn up and pawn structures are good, not sure tho

[zealous marsh]

Play progressive and be smart 💀

[nocturne plover]

Rapid unrated or rated I'm 1900

[stone grail]

Somehow my dumbass thought white is winning with a pawn down, lol

[tawdry eagle]

what game is thus

[loud dome]

Unrated

[timber badge]

black wins obv

[rose robin]

anyone want to play

[north ocean]

its not a lesson bro im not telling u how to play, im wondering how tf u decide on how to make a move, u said qxf5 so confidently and the followup is u get checkmated and theres no way to defend

[hidden knoll]

anyone unrated im 1200

[unborn glade]

Obviously? How?

[tawdry eagle]

sure me

[azure pivot]

I was locked in an Africa position, and Europe and North America took each other out and handed me the win😭

[winter grove]

Draw with black odds if it's a win

[timber badge]

blacks a pawn up

A pawn advantage isn’t always enough to win a game

[timber badge]

ye but in this position prolly is

[pseudo garden]

One hast returned

[pseudo garden]

Anytime ^^

[tawdry eagle]

if both players play perfectly its either a draw or maybe a slim chance black wins because of the extra pawn

[hidden knoll]

@tawdry eagle can u answer dm

[north ocean]

@dense cliff like i was taken off guard by qxf5 i didnt even consider it cause i just saw that g2# was unstoppable. (which it is)

[unborn glade]

What about the position makes you think black will be able to promote long-term?

[winter grove]

lmk when you're able to mhm mhm

[zealous marsh]

Me earning 40-50 troops a turn with 5 bonuses and chilling with the GM until the end when his pressure tactic didn't work and he suicided orange then gave me the win for my patience:

[rose robin]

https://link.chess.com/play/Osnn7q

[dense cliff]

there's a lot to play there, ofc I like black after e.g. b6 with the idea of pushing d5, but certainly it's a draw with engine moves

[timber badge]

white doesnt have any compensation for the pawn does he now

[pseudo garden]

Basically for the rest of the day after an hour from now

[stone grail]

While others are still in the middle game, those 2 are ready for an endgame ;-;...

[small jungle]

White is a pawn up for no compensation

[unborn glade]

What makes you think that, something about the position or just a gut feeling?

[winter grove]

bet I'm setting a timer

[azure pivot]

Average risk game: the winner is the person who leaves last

[slow folio]

nice!

[north ocean]

with perfect play this is slight edge for black because its an open center with a bishop versus a knight all else considered equal, but its like, extreme draw chances

[zealous marsh]

Black begged me to attack orange the entire game, which I didn't do 😭

[dense cliff]

there's many pieces (rooks & 2 minor pieces) so a pawn won't make a huge difference with perfect play

[zealous marsh]

I have more troops than you both, I'm not throwing my win away

[timber badge]

black has uncompromised pawn structure, his pieces are joining in soon, js slowly push and u will be able to win, the key is being patient and pushing
also typically a rook + bishop is considered a better pair than a rook + knight,

[azure pivot]

Always be giving you the thumbs down after u don’t do as they command too😭

[small jungle]

Black is also a pawn up

[winter grove]

Chat, assuming you have to lose either a knight or a bishop which would you rather lose

[north ocean]

oh i didnt even see that

lol there's that too

[pseudo garden]

Lalala

[north ocean]

i mean its pretty insignificant anyway

[timber badge]

mainly its my intuition telling me that black is better tho xD

[slow folio]

meanwhile Divya is cooking chat

[unborn glade]

Ty for your thought process

[pseudo garden]

Depends on the nuance of the position tbh

[zealous marsh]

Surprisingly the black dude was pretty chill, he didn't do allat and just gave up when he realized I was slowly building a rock solid lead. You know the rest.

[buoyant fog]

@dense cliff bullet?

[dense cliff]

rn?

[slow folio]

could be the next Polgar? (playing well at open's section)

[buoyant fog]

yeah like 2 matches ?

[winter grove]

You don't get that info, all you know is you have to lose a horse or a holyman

[dense cliff]

sure lemme install chess.com

[slow folio]

oh yeah Eli btw I will have a tournament soon yk?

in like 12-14 days

[north ocean]

bishops are worth more than knights by such a large margin. if u take away a bishop from the start, its worth more than a rook

specifically the queenside bishop for white

[slow folio]

so i'm rn just cooking and focusing on chess then anything else for now

[unborn glade]

Bishops are better generally speaking, but really there is a lot of nuance

[summer oar]

classic sicilian cooking

[buoyant fog]

@pseudo garden whats your fide rating ?

[timber badge]

meow meow meow

[dense cliff]

@unborn glade knight are usually better in closed positions whereas bishops dominate in open positions

[winter grove]

closed?

[stone grail]

Is Levon losing? THose Indians are peak, ngl

[summer oar]

idk what bro did lol

[north ocean]

?? the pawn structure is not relevant there, there are two pawn islands on both sides with complete health

[lunar river]

Feel like so bad my team lost against a team in my campus annual sports event in chess my team drew the other team but we lost the tiebreak

[zealous marsh]

Levon is worse but not dead lost

[winter grove]

I meant was it a closed sicilian

[summer oar]

yeah idk

[timber badge]

pawn structure is like one of the key relevant things in endgames smh

[stone grail]

I meant that's already impressive

[unborn glade]

Dang it really is a large margin

[winter grove]

what were the first 10 moves

[pseudo garden]

Not knowing the pawn structures, I'd rather lose a bishop tbh

[timber badge]

also i mentioned it to prove that white has no compensation

[north ocean]

yes, I know. I know all of them from the maroczy bind to the caro formation to the botvinnik formation to the carlsbad structure

[pseudo garden]

Why ask

[timber badge]

could be wrong tho if im missing smth concrete

[slow folio]

[zealous marsh]

Someone immediately pinged the dude when I posted the win in the Risk Discord server

He's well known 😭

[slow folio]

hm sure I'm alright with that!

[azure pivot]

😭

[dense cliff]

this guy ran

[rich sapphire]

Turn your animations off

[azure pivot]

ty for reminding me

[pseudo garden]

Alright then, we'll do it around then

[north ocean]

idk what pawn structure that is actually bc white is just randomly down a pawn. what opening was it from. its similar to the carlsbad but again white is missing his pawns

[rich sapphire]

Don't forget the slider

[slow folio]

btw Ima dm you to say sth I'm not supposed to public here lol

[pseudo garden]

Ah okay nws

[unborn glade]

Italian Game, Hungarian Defense. White made some bad moves which left them in an awful position

[shut agate]

[warped yarrow]

check dm plz

[north ocean]

I see. It should've been a Boleslavsky Wall then

[shrewd nova]

BRO I JUST LOST 87 PUZZLE STREAK CUZ OF MOUSE SLIP 😭

[storm rock]

you got 1 best move bro

[zealous marsh]

I love it when accuracy is:

[rich sapphire]

@azure pivot don't forget to spam hearts to all your allies

[north ocean]

@unborn glade white is just missing this pawn

but same structure

[azure pivot]

im sensing im about to get slammed into for no reason

[rich sapphire]

Send them more hearts

[rich sapphire]

Btw there's always a reason somebody slams into you

[dense cliff]

the thing is there s other pieces

[azure pivot]

orange might slam into me for literally just having australia

[scenic quartz]

yoo

[strong blaze]

Yo

[scenic quartz]

anyone above 1000 elo here

[north ocean]

the pawn structure is determined by the pawns brother, lol. its hard to see a boleslevesky wall if you dont have the e5 pawn when you should

[strong blaze]

Me

[scenic quartz]

i need teacher bro

[rich sapphire]

Get out of Australia

[north ocean]

1 pawn off, or a step too high changes the pawn structure completely @dense cliff

[strong blaze]

oh, can I teach tomorrow maybe, I have an exam tomorrow

[azure pivot]

had a god start had to take it

[rich sapphire]

Yeah but now give it up for Africa

[scenic quartz]

bet i need to understand the concept of calculations

[dense cliff]

you seem to know the theory

[scenic quartz]

anddd opening knowledge

[nocturne idol]

What opening is a great alternative for caro kann^?? T-T

[scenic quartz]

am 600 elo btw

[north ocean]

they get really similar so even 1 pawn off can be something entirely different

[dense cliff]

b6

[rich sapphire]

Or move into na tell black to move idk

[limpid viper]

none keep playing it

[strong blaze]

use the CCA checklist, do puzzles, acknowledge opponent threats, and try to better your position and place your pieces on outpost squares or on opponent territory

[small jungle]

Najdorf

[limpid viper]

ok @azure pivot get off your alt

[rich sapphire]

e5

[north ocean]

najdorf if you're a serious chess player yeah

[strong blaze]

You want a building block opening? French, if not sicilian and dutch are good

[rich sapphire]

e4 e5

[strong blaze]

Accelerated dragon good too btw

[dense cliff]

honestly i forgot the pawn structure names but yeah you usually learn those

[nocturne idol]

Noo i don't want that sadly

[small jungle]

I started learning it recently pretty fun

[north ocean]

sicilian isnt good if u arent a serious chess player its just way too much theory and sharpness

[scenic quartz]

accept friend request

[rich sapphire]

e4 e5 is what the real gigachads play

[scenic quartz]

tell me all of this in chat

[north ocean]

its not just about the theory either, the lines are so sharp it makes studying required

[strong blaze]

not too much, I mean it's doable, I say that as a 1300

[timber badge]

modern defense

[limpid viper]

whats a serious chess player

[north ocean]

well at that elo im sure you can play anything

[timber badge]

wyl

[timber badge]

fake, no way he says bro

[azure pivot]

Just wiped out half the board💀

[simple slate]

arjun is losing crazy

[compact aspen]

Dedicated his whole life to chess and goes to the mountains and live there by himself forever

[north ocean]

neither side knows how to punish the other so it doesnt matter too much but once you start climbing itll start to bite you in the ass because the sicilian is a serious opening @strong blaze

[limpid viper]

so i need 30000 hours in chess to become one?

[rich sapphire]

Kill got fed?

[nocturne idol]

I want open center ones, any idea?

[azure pivot]

orange slammed into green and they had 4 troops each😭

and i got 5 cards💀

[strong blaze]

At 1300 level sicilian is still pretty hard but I'm trying

[azure pivot]

this is why we aus!

[rich sapphire]

Take Europe already why you still in Australia 😭 😭 😭

[small jungle]

Against e4 or d4 aswell?

[strong blaze]

Those are building block openings, french is great but most ppl play advanced variation,

[compact aspen]

Not hard because at that level nobody Focuses on theory

[azure pivot]

i love a good aus camp

[timber badge]

watch naroditsky speedrun vids it'll help ya

[north ocean]

it wont matter at 1300 is what im saying. its a bad idea to stick with it though because as you climb up to 1500-2000, people will begin to know what theyre doing and this opening is notoriously the hardest to play, sharpest lines and the strictest ideas

[strong blaze]

People start to, I think

[nocturne idol]

Against e4

[limpid viper]

just play the carokann bro

[somber lark]

master, what openings are good for blitz

[azure pivot]

also blue is terrible they are rolling 4s into 6 i do not want to be near them

[north ocean]

probably will be fine til like 2000/2100 rapid tho in all honestly just winging it @strong blaze

[viral egret]

Play sveshnikov sicilian

[timber badge]

russian propaganda

[nocturne idol]

It's so boring now 🥲

[compact aspen]

No they don't trust me everyone goes out of the prep in 3 moves

[small jungle]

Sveshnikob💔

[timber badge]

any

[rich sapphire]

You didn't queue into true random did you

[strong blaze]

It's a great opening tho, imo. I do enjoy playing it, and if d4 I play dutch leningrad

[storm rock]

how did you get the India role

grob

[limpid viper]

thats why you gotta mix it up a little

[timber badge]

u could go h4 h5 and win

[north ocean]

youi have to realize, playing c5 as an opening move doesnt mean you are playing the sicilian youre just playing a chess move that happens to be the sicilian. the complexity and sharpness of the opening is extremely grueling once you understand all of the positional considerations and how hard the ideas are to carry out

[somber lark]

I feel like I cant convert an advantage in open sicilian 😭

[timber badge]

lol

are u going into concrete mainlines zigzag

[warped yarrow]

any 2200+ player here rn?

[strong blaze]

A lot of people actually know the theory, as far as I've played, the ones who don't are fake rated, and I beat them and they get -100 elo

[nocturne idol]

I've done that i completely studied it but it gets difficult and difficult when your elo highs up

[dense cliff]

for what tho

[winter grove]

I got all day, just dm me whenever lol

[north ocean]

I know because I play c4, this is my study file

[somber lark]

I wont improve without changing anything

[strong blaze]

Ye,

[winter grove]

https://tenor.com/view/kurt-cobain-shocked-gif-4532427039292232267

[strong blaze]

English?

[north ocean]

no espanol

yes the english 😛

[strong blaze]

Huh,

[north ocean]

i was making a joke friend

[timber badge]

"openings arent that big of a deal, just say meow meow meow and move on." - CountingBlunders 11/09/2025

[rich sapphire]

Just win

[north ocean]

I have a 25,000 word doc on the english and ur like ' do u know the name of the opening?' so i said 'no, espanol!'

[limpid viper]

anyone else play the scandi 🥺

[strong blaze]

Ye I got it, I was confused because I went to english while discussing sicilian

[somber lark]

I used to do that, doesnt work

[dense cliff]

real players use chess base

[timber badge]

purr for me

[strong blaze]

Treat your opening like your wife

[limpid viper]

vro this is what you advised me to do

[north ocean]

you know they're the same thing inverse color right

c4 is the sicilian a tempo up

[limpid viper]

i want an apology zigzag

[timber badge]

also good mentality

[winter grove]

Why are there no variations of the alapin

[nocturne plover]

@loud dome ggs i blundered once and you couldve equalised but i played great other than that i feel

[strong blaze]

Ye fr,

[loud dome]

gg

[rich sapphire]

Don't memorise her?

[somber lark]

its still a decent strategy, dont get wrong

[timber badge]

but if u dont feel comfortable at all in the mainlines its no point in playing em

[north ocean]

e4 c5 is the same thing as c4 e5

[somber lark]

but I did too much

[strong blaze]

Master her, and don't cheat on her, else she will slap you with slipper

[north ocean]

black doesnt have to play e5 in response to c4 but its very common

#2 after nf6

[timber badge]

i physically cant learn huge theory so i'd rather play some sidelines in the mainlines fr

[dense cliff]

the rat defense is goated

[somber lark]

my best winrate is in e4 💀

[azure pivot]

@rich sapphire

[timber badge]

i think mine is in 1. a4 otb

[north ocean]

@rich sapphire what are u confused about

[timber badge]

100% win rate

[north ocean]

its the same structure mirrored opposite colors @rich sapphire

[nocturne plover]

Here you had Rxg2, hxg2, Ng5+ which stops promotion as well but hard to spot with like 15 secs

[timber badge]

only 1 game 😔

[limpid viper]

wdym

[rich sapphire]

Better than Europe if you can trust purple

[somber lark]

doesnt count

[hollow spoke]

Ooorrrr just don't learn openings

[rich sapphire]

Even if black plays e5, the plans for white are not the same as they are for black in the Sicilian

[timber badge]

prolly colle zukertort then

[nocturne idol]

It gets trickier at 2000 level and i have to calculate more if i want it to be equal or to win

[strong blaze]

And then lose all your games

[tropic mauve]

yo...

[azure pivot]

im thick and thin with black and purple rn, perfect spot

[north ocean]

Not for every line you're correct, but they can be. It's a tempo up so theyre gonna have some slight nuance to them

[tawdry eagle]

@hidden knoll gg

[somber lark]

been like that for 4 years
I literally dont have a repertoire 😭

[storm rock]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1323751989896544269/1360984389722570772/caption.gif

[limpid viper]

oh i have not had this problem

[strong blaze]

which opening, do you love your opening

[hollow spoke]

Not rly I never learned a single opening, just learned the principles of development. I'm doing just fine.

[tawdry eagle]

start the procedure

[timber badge]

me core

[north ocean]

But you can give the tempo back, for example, black can play d5 and you can literally end up in a situation where as white ur playing the sicilian again making the same moves black would be @rich sapphire

[nocturne plover]

Vro come 1v1 I just defeated a 2100

[strong blaze]

U STILL LEARNED A OPENING,, BRUH

[timber badge]

i love u zigzag

[tropic mauve]

insane

[hollow spoke]

No?

[tawdry eagle]

crazy

[north ocean]

@rich sapphire same thing can also be achieved via h3 or a3 and waiting

[limpid viper]

vro why me 💀

[strong blaze]

Yes, technically , u must play the italian

[somber lark]

cap

[rich sapphire]

Whatever vro

[tropic mauve]

such a weird game

[nocturne plover]

You're 2k🙂

[tawdry eagle]

who wants to play me vro

[rich sapphire]

I'm not interested enough to talk about this

[plucky kelp]

oh damn arjun is losing

[timber badge]

i mean i do understand the ideas :jianchao:

[nocturne plover]

Nah vro you are 1200 kramnik will surely be noting

[north ocean]

ok lol well u replied so thats why im talking to u kinda thought u wouldnt have replied otherwise

[somber lark]

I suffer from skill issue

[rich sapphire]

Throwing big time

[limpid viper]

in like 20 minutes maybe im eating vro

[timber badge]

im trying to study g3 lines in reti these days :>

[nocturne plover]

Sure

[strong blaze]

Then develop skill, also do you love your opening

[hollow spoke]

Not really... I don't directly fight for the center with pawns, I play slowly

[strong blaze]

THATS KIA

[timber badge]

no

[north ocean]

?? whats so hard about g3 bg2 nf3 o-O d4

[strong blaze]

Yes

[north ocean]

you can legit play that every game without a thought in the universe

[timber badge]

bro does not know

[somber lark]

until 0-0 its goated

[timber badge]

this is why i love u

[limpid viper]

tf is a reti

[north ocean]

if u want excitement as the reti do the reti gambit

[silent hollow]

Guys did u know 50% of chess players are under 600 elo

[timber badge]

im bored of it

[tropic mauve]

woww

[plucky kelp]

yes

[strong blaze]

More arguably

[north ocean]

then play the english

[limpid viper]

wrong

[north ocean]

someone told me about some crazy gambit i can show u @timber badge

[plucky kelp]

helo being a ragebaiter???

[timber badge]

i should study it

but lazy

[timber badge]

that adhiban gambit in english?

[north ocean]

its about as much as studying every e4 opening that black can reply with just for 1 move and then some, and it transposes into half of d4

[limpid viper]

no

[somber lark]

its a sicilian up a tempo, you already know the lines

[north ocean]

so its kinda something u switch to permanently not just yolo @timber badge

[hollow spoke]

Definitely not, only if we call "players" anyone who's played 1 match of chess in their life or more, instead of active player base

[plucky kelp]

yeah sorry I don't trust ragebaiters

[north ocean]

it actually even transposes into some of e4 too

[tropic mauve]

Traduced: ''A very equal game''

[north ocean]

no other opening does that, not even e4

[timber badge]

bro forgot reti

🥶

[north ocean]

reti goes into e4 territory?

[hollow spoke]

[timber badge]

yes

[north ocean]

and d4? how

[somber lark]

it goes into what ever

[timber badge]

catalan

[north ocean]

black can push the d or e pawn 2 steps

[dense cliff]

@limpid viper play a game?

[timber badge]

reti can transpose into anything

[strong blaze]

Is catalan good? For now I'm going for english, as I was uncomfortable with catalan at first,

[timber badge]

play it however u like :>

[somber lark]

thats why I can freestyle it 💀

[formal relic]

Ikr its amazing

[north ocean]

u know how like, if black plays nf6 then it takes away e4 because the pawn gets taken

say white goes a3, black goes nf6 now white cant play e4

[tropic mauve]

my friend told me that a3 is epic

[north ocean]

how does that not happen for the reti

[timber badge]

he was right

[strong blaze]

Play d4 then, reverse

[north ocean]

o interesting

[steep cargo]

Hello.

[strong blaze]

And u get into a london business

[tropic mauve]

bro showed me a full blown system

[brazen ibex]

im a 1035 guys

[kindred crypt]

The wind calls me

[somber lark]

Nf3 c5 e4, boom you are in sicilian

[strong blaze]

Which is cool

[brazen ibex]

[formal relic]

[brazen ibex]

[tropic mauve]

[strong blaze]

Nf3 c5 c4 BOOM ENGLISHH

[steep cargo]

Ok.

[strong blaze]

What

[tropic mauve]

thats the system

[north ocean]

[limpid viper]

[brazen ibex]

How long have u been on 904

[formal relic]

Symmetrical English 🤢

[dense cliff]

[north ocean]

[dense cliff]

when are you available

[strong blaze]

With a break maybe, after smth like nc3 and bg5

[timber badge]

transposes mostly

[steep cargo]

Go to #announcements you'll get it.

[brazen ibex]

Yeah ngl beating 900s and 1000s is pretty easy as long as ur locked in

[north ocean]

... to what

[timber badge]

maroczy type shi

[formal relic]

I've transposed reti into italian before

[tropic mauve]

i locked in beating a 2200 🔥

bro blundered a queen and king fork

[steep cargo]

904 is my bullet rating. 💀

[limpid viper]

was looking for a 600 rated player to prove you wrong but i happened across a 500 with 11k games 😭

[strong blaze]

Fr, I gave a fight to a 2000 until endgame when I was locked in, chess.com said I played like 2000

[north ocean]

bruh lol

[formal relic]

🥶

[strong blaze]

I was 1200 at that time

[plucky kelp]

how tf is that even possible 😭

[timber badge]

but im bored of playing maroczy structures too

[north ocean]

@timber badge my guy doesnt know what the maroczy is

[timber badge]

who

[north ocean]

you cant play a maroczy with a knight on f6

[timber badge]

sigh

[brazen ibex]

2000s say that im better than a 1000

[north ocean]

you

[formal relic]

Do you play Botvinnik English?

[strong blaze]

I played like 700 rapid games im 1288 🙂

[timber badge]

used to

[tropic mauve]

my friend suggests the weirdest ass openings

[strong blaze]

What rated you

[brazen ibex]

rapid and classical show real chess skill

[formal relic]

Its cold, but you have to know the setup a lot

[plucky kelp]

11k is a lot more than 700

[north ocean]

pls enlighten me on how you push e5 with a knight on f6 already

[brazen ibex]

rn im 1035

[tawdry eagle]

is this good

[strong blaze]

Ye

[strong blaze]

Is a brilliant against martin even possible

[plucky kelp]

yes

[tawdry eagle]

yea thats what i was trying

[tropic mauve]

dont trust the ?

[strong blaze]

Wait u played like 80 moves? Crazy

[north ocean]

@timber badge you do realize the maroczy is c/e 2 steps forward, and playing nf6 stops e pawn from going 2 steps forward

[tawdry eagle]

idk why it was given brilliant i just saced the knight to open up a pin on the queen

[timber badge]

dont ask me what i play against e6 cuz im not revealing my prep

[limpid viper]

500 with 11k games i might have to help bro out

[strong blaze]

Or smth like bg5 take take and e4

[north ocean]

whats the move order

[steep cargo]

Rapid isn't far off, it is 861 (peak 885).

[tawdry eagle]

49 moves moving the king around 50th move checkmate

[timber badge]

nc3 nc6 d4

[brazen ibex]

im 1035 with almost 1500 rapid games is that okay

[tawdry eagle]

i was trying 2 bishops mate but i got bored and made 5 queens

[strong blaze]

idk, im 700 rapid games and 1300

[strong blaze]

W

[tropic mauve]

How 2 destroy caro-kann and french simple!!
e4 e6 d4 d5 exd5 exd5 c4 FRENCH DESTROYED
e4 c6 d4 d5 exd5 cxd5 c4 CARO-KANN DESTROYED

[strong blaze]

Like dont these winning endgames feel like bullying a mob in Minecraft?

[north ocean]

this stops u from transposing into e4 ever, doesnt it?

[tawdry eagle]

true

[nocturne plover]

How tf do y'all have so much games I'm 1880 with 166 games

[dense cliff]

@north ocean blitz match?

[timber badge]

thats so bad wtf

[tropic mauve]

😭

[strong blaze]

How long have you been playing?

[brazen ibex]

Bro.

[north ocean]

its mainline theory for about 3 different openings

[dense cliff]

all my games are bullet 💀

[nocturne plover]

Like 1 year

[tawdry eagle]

im 1300 rn with 99 games

[tropic mauve]

GET OUT-

[strong blaze]

W,

[north ocean]

how is it bad its move 3 and uve pushed a central pawn and a kingside knight lol

thats not bad o.0

[tropic mauve]

1350 blitz

1200 rapid...

[north ocean]

ill play a rapid

[dense cliff]

like what, 10 zero?

[north ocean]

sure

[dense cliff]

challenge me

[timber badge]

its playable but obv white is better

[steep cargo]

I'm starting my club again, I had one with 257 members, but it got raided.

[limpid viper]

are you not very good at thinking

[north ocean]

yes white is better by 30-50/100 centipawns for about every first move

blacks goal is to equalize

[nocturne plover]

good stuff

[tawdry eagle]

thanks

[timber badge]

for a reason (master's database)

[limpid viper]

prolly cause they started and learnt chess by playing on cc

[nocturne plover]

Like I was 1500 8-9 months ago took a break for 5-6 months dropped back to 1300 then like started the gain 1300 to 1880 in less than 2 months

[tawdry eagle]

crazy

[young swan]

I found a bug with the chess.com app, where to report it?

[nocturne plover]

1300+ rapid games is crazy

[tawdry eagle]

i used to be 1500 once but then i stopped for like an year and only recently started playing again

[limpid viper]

hop on zekodin

[tawdry eagle]

idk

[limpid viper]

i have 12k games vro

prolly like 600-700 rapid games

[hexed oracle]

I gotta make a project about oppenheimer what u think of this intro

[nocturne plover]

Ye rapid matters they have like 1500 games on rapid and 700 rapid

[hexed oracle]

rough example of what I thinking of doin

[limpid viper]

ts was cinema

[steep cargo]

I am going to play a few daily games to get my daily rating up.

[hexed oracle]

I plan to add shake and a vine boom sound effect too

[limpid viper]

yes please add sound effects i was wondering if it was muted for a minute

[limpid viper]

quite alot of people don't really put effort into improving they just play

i think thats okay though

cause thats basically what i do

[willow owl]

Hi father

[spring lion]

Yeah

Im too lazy to analyze my losses/ study an opening

[limpid viper]

me too

[spring lion]

Thats why im not improving :(

[limpid viper]

i just play alot

[spring lion]

How many games?

[limpid viper]

i have 12k rn

[spring lion]

I have like 12,000

Oh nice

[limpid viper]

3500 games within the last 90 days though 😭

[spring lion]

💀

[limpid viper]

i was locked in during the holidays vro

even though i ended up tilting and losing like all my gains

[nocturne plover]

I was going downfall but then like 2 months ago I stopped playing and blundering limited to 2-5 games a day depending on time and analysing and like +530 elo in 2 months it pays ig

[steep cargo]

I have 1950 games (if you also consider the ones from my old account).

[limpid viper]

i mean yea if thats what you wanna do do that i would rather just play and have fun

[spring lion]

Your rating is still pretty close to peak i must say, could’ve been worse 😳

[limpid viper]

o nah thats cause i gained like 100 elo within the last 2 days

ts was worse

slowly recovering

[spring lion]

My tilt is like 100elo in one sitting 😭

[limpid viper]

same

[shrewd nova]

bro how do i stop mouse slipping

[nocturne plover]

Nah bro I rage and break stuff when I blunder queens 😭

[limpid viper]

one day i fell 80 rapid elo then gained it back in the same sitting

[spring lion]

You lost 10 rapid games in a row 🥸

[limpid viper]

uhh not exactly

but i won like 9 in a row at the end

[spring lion]

I can’t play more than 3 rapid games in a row cuz my inner ADHD starts kicking in

[nocturne plover]

That's holy like 20 rapid in a sitting and regaining tilt in a day is mad

[limpid viper]

i played 35 games bro

[spring lion]

35 rapid games 💀

Why are you torturing yoursef

[mortal bronze]

who was it that played 460 rapid games in one week?

[limpid viper]

bro i promise you i have nothing on dobyvatel2

[mortal bronze]

was it ki?

[limpid viper]

dobyvatel2

[mortal bronze]

oh doby

[spring lion]

@small jungle is ur alt?!?!?!?!?!

[limpid viper]

@small jungle an actual rapid fiend bro

[mortal bronze]

how did he pull it off...

[spring lion]

Oh nvm

[limpid viper]

bro plays like 400 rapid games a week

he's just built different

[spring lion]

I mean his rapid rating is much higher than his others

[nocturne idol]

Guys i do need alternative opening for caro kann HELPP- 😭

[nocturne plover]

All To get defeated by me😭

[mortal bronze]

that's 65 rapid games a day

[kindred crypt]

no! stick to caro kann!

[spring lion]

Playing rapid so much is really a sign to get a life tbh

[limpid viper]

he's tough though

[torn sparrow]

vro might reach me

[spring lion]

65 bullet games is already on the high side

[limpid viper]

greenflower by the end of the year i will be able to go 10-0 against you

tf you mean might reach me

[nocturne plover]

I didn't think so like i had a dominant win

[mortal bronze]

it's anything but getting a life

[limpid viper]

yea everyone has bad games

[mortal bronze]

62 rapid games a day is impossible. and he still manages it

[kindred crypt]

@torn sparrow 10-0? you gotta say something about that? you gonna let him faaak you like that? go 1v1 we watch

[mortal bronze]

for 7 days in a row

[spring lion]

I have 1.2k rapid games in my entire life and he can reach that in 3 weeks 😟

[torn sparrow]

I will be happy to have so a good score against a 2900 blitz tbh

[limpid viper]

vro what are you saying

[nocturne plover]

Ye fair

[kindred crypt]

2900 blitz!

[spring lion]

1000 pity elo 🫥

[torn sparrow]

a 2800 blitz couldnt 10-0 me in blitz vro

[limpid viper]

they definitely could

[torn sparrow]

so good luck smth

[mortal bronze]

i have 638 on my main account.

[nocturne idol]

I need someone to play with wth i gotta be the worst caro kann user 😭

[mortal bronze]

he did that in one week

crazy to think about

[spring lion]

Yeah I hate rapid with all my heart. Peaksitting at 2000 is perfect :)

[limpid viper]

you got 7-0ed in bullet by someone 100 points lower than you and you're gonna convince yourself someone 500 points higher than you in blitz can't 10-0 you

[torn sparrow]

I am too fast in 3+0

[spring lion]

Well 2001 sadly cuz cc decided to refund me 1 elo 🫠

[mortal bronze]

lol

[torn sparrow]

I dont buy that tbh

[spring lion]

2001 (2000 peak) 😥

[kindred crypt]

my score against a 2800 rated blitz is 3 out of 10

[spring lion]

Thats really good bruh

[limpid viper]

ain't this you though

[kindred crypt]

Hello, try Kings Indian Defense

[hexed oracle]

@limpid viper I added the sound effect

[mortal bronze]

i am still convinced he played against a 2900 that day

[kindred crypt]

but in bullet, my range is volatile. i can defeat a 3300 player on good days.. but lose to 1200 on bad days

[spring lion]

🥶

[torn sparrow]

this is 10+0.1

[hexed oracle]

Grunfield

[torn sparrow]

and I have 300ms delay so its fair

[limpid viper]

how do you get 300-3d by a washed titled player and have this confidence

[torn sparrow]

vro cant understand the time control

[kindred crypt]

i actually defeat Magnus Carlsen in bullet. without me knowing it.

[spring lion]

Cc should give back time from lag

[limpid viper]

bro 10+0.1 is the easiest tc to win in against someone higher rated

[kindred crypt]

a 1500 player will score 1 - 100 vs a 2800 player

[torn sparrow]

its not if they a proffesional

[spring lion]

Try my 1000ms delay and you will find yourself to be so blessed 🥹

[torn sparrow]

ts guy has a 3200 alt

[limpid viper]

[spring lion]
