[upbeat viper]

new graph yep

[stark pewter]

Wait what

[dreamy sinew]

yes its horrible

[mighty remnant]

so it's fair?

[primal fern]

send me diamond

[upbeat viper]

become mod

[primal fern]

many people wonder why i am not mod

[upbeat viper]

so do I

[dreamy sinew]

guys how do i join the chess.com discord server?

[mild juniper]

why would it be? he only have me exclams when in mid game when i got 20 top engine moves

[digital phoenix]

arent u like 16

[covert mantle]

go join my club please , it is called "The Best Club In The World'

[primal fern]

tf i'm 25

[digital phoenix]

lol

52

[grave wasp]

dont spam

[stark pewter]

Same thing

[fathom spruce]

Looks like the Rocky Mountains

[mild juniper]

so are they more willing to give moves like best move?

[hollow tiger]

Yo want to play with somebody

[mighty remnant]

not best move
also depends on position
if it's a straightforward game where your opponent blunders, it's easier to get better accuracy compared to positional games

[grim edge]

Damnnnn

[hollow tiger]

https://play.chess.com/bEoTS

[mild juniper]

yeah thats why i've said i've played some games against people who didn't downright blunder but i also didn't get good ratings

[hollow tiger]

sad

[mighty remnant]

yup

it's easier to get inaccuracies and mistakes in positional games

because it involves so much more calculation

[fathom spruce]

Any tips in closed positions?

[mighty remnant]

calculate every single candidate move for both you and opponent

that's the only thing i can think of

like for example no 1000 is going to find this move
it's the best move according to stockfish

after that you sac a rook

[foggy anchor]

Pawn. Breaks.

[fathom spruce]

So find a way to open up?

[mighty remnant]

uh
most important is probably trading to your advantage

[grave wasp]

waiting for bast to make a move

[foggy anchor]

Who wins in closed positions is 90% determined by where and when pawn breaks are made

[mighty remnant]

true
pawn breaks are very important

[fathom spruce]

Wdym

[next seal]

woohoo

[mighty remnant]

like for example
when you have a rook on a certain file
opening that file up by trading is a good idea

[mild juniper]

someone wants to play?

[fathom spruce]

Ok thx

[mighty remnant]

best move in this position is quite weird lol

[grim edge]

[mild juniper]

yeah i had to look for a bit to find the idea

[dreamy sinew]

L

[digital phoenix]

pretty sure u have to open up the d file by saccing something

Rxd6?

[mighty remnant]

yup
no just exf5
sac rook

[woeful moat]

you're around 1000?

[mild juniper]

im 600

[woeful moat]

oh i see

id be down but im 1700

[fathom spruce]

I guess it kicked the rook and puts pressure on the center

[grave wasp]

why's your name just L?

[mild juniper]

ins't the idea behind that move to open the d file after rook captures bishop back?

[mighty remnant]

chess.com gives a brilliant

[worn ice]

doryetuosenbcakohn (2108) vs. Defaultedwastaken (2002)

The move list was too long to fit in this embed :(

[mighty remnant]

white to move
not black

[grave wasp]

las your name is an L

[mild juniper]

someone wants to play bullet 1+1? im a 600

[simple rose]

Ruy Lopez

[digital phoenix]

yeah it is

[grave wasp]

now mine is W

[fathom spruce]

I mean the rook drops down and opening the line of sight to the center pawn

[mild juniper]

whats this line of theory

[mighty remnant]

rook gets sacced

[grave wasp]

ok screw this I'm changing my nick back I hate this

[grave wasp]

why?

[simple rose]

Attacking my white knight in exchanged for black rook

[fathom spruce]

I think I have seen this before

[mild juniper]

someone wants to play 1+1?

[fathom spruce]

Me

[mild juniper]

man it sucks to only know bullet since no sane players likes it

[digital phoenix]

one leter

[mild juniper]

[grave wasp]

[fathom spruce]

Nah when you think they will just promote to a queen but to knight and fork your king and queen

[fathom spruce]

Ok

Inv me

[mild juniper]

after i'll play with u

[dreamy sinew]

im going to force a wrench down your trachea

[mighty remnant]

i mean i guess that's also pretty bad
but seriously
imagine
you castle kingside
and your f,g and h pawn all just disappear

[simple rose]

I mostly don't use Larsen opening since I love Poland opening b4

[mighty remnant]

ishowspeed

[wispy spindle]

just pawn takes forks queen and dark bishop

[glossy radish]

ouch

[ornate ivy]

Oh

[wispy spindle]

take dark bishop then take light bishop

[glossy radish]

[digital phoenix]

Skill issue

[glossy radish]

keep your ass safe tn

[digital phoenix]

[glossy radish]

[native bison]

If you take its gonna be knight takes knight check, then you reply with taking the knight, then he finna sac his knight to take on e4 and then he has a barrage

[digital phoenix]

[wispy spindle]

the knight must move in this puzzle cuz if u take the light bishop first ur knight gets pinned and u lose it so no material is gained @swift ore

so u take pawn first to win 4 material

[glossy radish]

[slender sandal]

So which is better for learning would it not be a longer game?

[spiral badger]

Longer game is better

[wispy spindle]

[glossy radish]

[vague depot]

[slender sandal]

[glossy radish]

youre not sorry

i just need a flower to draw

[tepid spoke]

I prefer 15

[wild oyster]

[vague depot]

[primal shore]

[slender sandal]

[glossy radish]

LUCY ilyt /p

[slender sandal]

I’ll prolly go for 10 m

[primal shore]

Goodnight little tiny people in my phone

[glossy radish]

okay

[tepid spoke]

I would always take a lotta time

[wild oyster]

because blitz chess at beginner level is normally terrible. You can easily improve with 1 month of rapid

[glossy radish]

night night lucyyy

[vague depot]

Ya and do you guys suggest Bobby Fischer teaches chess?

[primal shore]

Flowers are just ground leafs 🥱🥱

[tepid spoke]

Do u have like a glasses for colorblindness

[wispy spindle]

red peony

[primal shore]

They don't work for acromatopsia

[wild oyster]

yea... no. Gotham chess videos from like 2 years ago imo are the best videos to watch at a beginner level. Even though there are better teachers out there, he really makes you understand why you are so stupid, so check those out

[glossy radish]

@vague depot is this photo okay? other one was too blurry

[wild oyster]

PP on the PP 😄

[glossy radish]

no

[wild oyster]

Put pressure on the pinned piece

[vague depot]

yes!! thats also very pretty :3

[slender sandal]

I watch Levy 24/7 I have all of his videos from this year plus some from last year watched

[glossy radish]

okey give me a few minutes

[wild oyster]

and u are 250?

[slender sandal]

And I started playing like a month ago

[hot gorge]

Very pretty!

[vague depot]

[wild oyster]

to be fair right, you can watch for entertainment but watch his videos where he teaches

[vague depot]

chess is evil

[wild oyster]

those will help you out alot! Especially the ones with like 1000 elo range

[wild oyster]

you are evil

[vague depot]

true.....

[wild oyster]

i am too 😈

[tepid spoke]

GTE would be a good vid to watch for entertainment and instructional chess

[vague depot]

[wild oyster]

so so, they focus more on entertainment...

only instructional based on the video and if the players actually play important mistakes people normalyl make

[hot gorge]

I'll connect it tomorrow after school

[wild oyster]

if its just straight up blunders you cant really learn from that

[primal shore]

I watch NM Nelson Lopez, IM Alex banzea and one other IM I can't remember the name of, levy rozman is entertaining but doesn't teach theory at good enough depth for me

[slender sandal]

I started a month ago

[wild oyster]

im not going to rating judge u or smth just curious

[slender sandal]

I have a IM friend lol

[hot gorge]

Woah

[wild oyster]

chess vibes 😄

[primal shore]

Yessir

[tepid spoke]

Gotham is good for beginners

[wild oyster]

alex is cool and its also nice that he has alot of caro videos, since its my fav opening

he is also just a funny guy tbh

[wild oyster]

yea and intermediate

[slender sandal]

Ya I am not the best learner tho but then again I have tried learning until recently mostly just been playing

[vague depot]

i think the best way to play chess is probably just to memorize a response to every single move ever

[primal shore]

He makes me feel at home bc his accent :]

[glossy radish]

rahhh im v

[vague depot]

v!!!

[primal shore]

V ily

[wild oyster]

dont worry, im not either. I learned best from playing more games

[hot gorge]

I have been on the search for an opening for White at 1000-1200

[vague depot]

italian.........

[primal shore]

Vienna

[wild oyster]

there is no such thing really tbh

[glossy radish]

wot who

[wild oyster]

like i would just break it down with beginner, intermeidate, and master if anything

[slender sandal]

@primal shore why the reaction

[glossy radish]

ooh bast

[wild oyster]

just play an openings u like

[hot gorge]

Thank you for your suggestion, I will look into that

[upbeat viper]

Any opening is playable

[wild oyster]

if u want to play london, go ahead :d

[primal shore]

IM Alex Banzea

[wild oyster]

vienna, etc

[hot gorge]

I have been playing the accelerated Dragon Sicilian as black lately

[primal shore]

You said your friend is an IM💀💀

[wild oyster]

hmmm, good luck! Very tricky opening

[slender sandal]

He is do I need to link his account

[hot gorge]

And the Danish Gambit as white, though it's not the best of openings

[primal shore]

Let me link my best friends account, NM Nelson Lopez yk that guy?

[mighty remnant]

i have been playing the english recently

[alpine haven]

I have bad connection and still won 😎

[wild oyster]

no no... danish is very crazy good if your opponent isnt careful

[primal shore]

It ain't hard to link a random account alr?

[slender sandal]

He’s not known by anyone lol he’s a bit of a creep and he’s a Brit

[candid tendon]

[wild oyster]

ive fallen victim to it many times

[vague depot]

respectable choice :)

[mighty remnant]

my opponent resigned here :D

[hot gorge]

Don't worry, @primal shore, I'll take a look at other Sicilians too

[primal shore]

Good

[alpine haven]

London >>>

[mighty remnant]

i've only played it once
against a 2200
with 81 accuracy hehe

[grim edge]

wsg chat

[primal shore]

Stay away from the sicillan

[slender sandal]

Do I have to show conversations between him and I on discord or something?

[primal shore]

Such much theory

[wild oyster]

are u like high elo or more beginner, if you are a beginner i wouldnt learn sicilian yet

[primal shore]

Ain't no way 💀

[vague depot]

good stuff!! the english is pretty natural to play i feel like!

[primal shore]

I main English OTB

[wild oyster]

bro its not that serious, we truly dont care or think you are lying 😄

[hot gorge]

I am flicker between beginner and intermediate, at about the 1100 range

[hot hazel]

hm

[mighty remnant]

we played symmetrical english :D
i got absolutely demolished tho
survived 40 moves

[grim edge]

i like c4, g3 english

[vague depot]

i played it once otb and i crushed a guy, but i havent played it since :(

[primal shore]

Vienna is nice sure, but OTB? Meh

[wild oyster]

honestly yea you are basically getting to intermediate. You know... if you want to get ahead of the game learning it wont be so bad but be wary that there is ALOT of theory

[wild oyster]

its even cooler OTB

[mighty remnant]

i plan to do english and french
with larsen and nimzo/alekhine for fun

[sacred steeple]

bros tryna plant c4's smh

[vague depot]

still solid! good job!

[hot gorge]

'Tis late, and I must be off to bed for my standardized test tomorrow

[grim edge]

call me a terrorist

[wild oyster]

the amount of chaos it can cause in like 10 moves

[hot gorge]

I shouldn't even be up this late

[primal shore]

I've played Vienna OTB once, it's a very mid position for OTB

[hot gorge]

Good night you all

[mighty remnant]

alekhine's defense 💀

[wild oyster]

i dont even get into this tbh

[vague depot]

aggressive positions can be cool sometimes otb, a lot of people just cant defend

[slender sandal]

Idk this Thing. Keeps acting like I’m lying

[vague depot]

bruh...

[wild oyster]

what do you mean by this blud

[wild oyster]

https://tenor.com/view/chad-gif-25546777

[slender sandal]

Exactly what I said lol

[vague depot]

hang your queen

[alpine haven]

Queen useless

[vague depot]

so true

[alpine haven]

King gambit >>>>

[sacred steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/rat-gif-24916086

[wild oyster]

💀

[vague depot]

kings gambit players :

[mighty remnant]

after 10 moves in alehkine:

this was a master game

[wild oyster]

this board looks attrocious

[primal shore]

The best counter to the King's gambit is not playing e5 smh

[mighty remnant]

i'm sorry

[grim edge]

real

[wild oyster]

no like seriously u need help 😭

[mighty remnant]

it's from another chess website
i usually use lichess/chess.com

[wild oyster]

your brain is hurting you

ohhh okok

[vague depot]

me if i was black in this position

[wild oyster]

you dont need help then, that website needs help

[mighty remnant]

another 10 moves of alekhine

btw the knight on b3 came from a5

💀

[wild oyster]

when you see the positioning of these knights (black knights) but on the king side, you know a vicious attack is about to commence

[vague depot]

tragic

[mighty remnant]

i mean
looks really funny

i like it

[wild oyster]

crazy positions fr

[mighty remnant]

i love getting people out of preparation

[wild oyster]

i feel like the positions i will soon know by heart is caro kann positions

[mighty remnant]

it's so funny watching them struggle after first 3 moves

[wild oyster]

ive seen them so many times that i can tell when a middle game came from a caro easily

its so weird... i play it against e4 every game

[earnest mason]

whats the best opening? i keep playing the italian game but i want smthn new

[vague depot]

1. h4 :)

[mighty remnant]

something new?
try b3

[wild oyster]

just try to check out diff openings and find something you like. There is no "best opening" at least for beginners :d

[earnest mason]

b3? what does that mean

[wild oyster]

coordinate

[vague depot]

pawn b3

[earnest mason]

oh

[mighty remnant]

i mean but then people just do normal development after e5/d5
but for alekhine you need theory
and basically no one below 2000 prepares for alekhine

also it's really aggressive

i love aggressive openings

[vague depot]

true, i have like minimal prep for alekhine, but if i felt like it i could probbbbably transpose into something i know a bit better?

[mighty remnant]

hmm
maybe

[vague depot]

like e4 nf6 nc3 is something that transposes into some pretty interesting positions sometimes

[sudden trench]

what are some good free resources for learning the sicilian

[mighty remnant]

[covert mantle]

https://www.chess.com/club/the-best-club-in-the-world-2/join

[elfin pebble]

No I didn't. I would of been able to move the knight for a fork. (The bishop would be protecting it )

[pastel plover]

So you don't care about your queen?

[grim edge]

no

[pastel plover]

Fair enough

[elfin pebble]

Idk how they didn't see it lol

[grim edge]

Wait couldn’t the queen be bait for a trap

[pastel plover]

It's 500 elo they play random

I think he wants more queens

[pastel plover]

It was cool tho

Even tho I hoped for stalemate 😔

[foggy anchor]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[pastel plover]

[foggy anchor]

So over the top

[ruby rain]

Just watched a GM say a brilliant was a blunder 💯

[spiral badger]

Why is there so many cheaters who dm random people to play chess

[ruby rain]

He's not cheating

93.6 isn't that level

[pastel plover]

Fr

[spiral badger]

He’s banned for fair play and other people who dm me too

[pastel plover]

He would have 99 accuracy like Hikaru

[ruby rain]

Doesn't mean he's cheating

Could be stalling , being toxic, quitting games

Having a 2nd account

[keen dock]

l

[elfin pebble]

😔 no stalemate=

[ruby rain]

Unverified

[grim edge]

who wana 1v1?

[ruby rain]

Stockfish averages like 97-98+

[grim edge]

@ruby rain wana 1v1

[pastel plover]

True

[ruby rain]

There's always at least 1 excellent instead of a best move

[tepid breach]

Wtf is a gem?

[pastel plover]

@grim edge did you finish Jojo?

[ruby rain]

💀

[foggy anchor]

Is it cheating if you're literally genius and have a genie guiding you to play the right moves

[tepid breach]

Is it cheating it you use stockfish because I think it's not cheating.

[ruby rain]

It is definitely cheating

[grim edge]

a gem is a substance made from the core of the earth, it is usually identified into seperate ones, such as lapis, diamonds, and rubies

[tepid breach]

What is the core of the earfth

[grim edge]

if you arent recieving any external support and are using your own brain, then no it isnt cheating

[ruby rain]

I don't think it's from the core of the earth they are made by heat and compressed minerals though

[grim edge]

and where does the heat come from

[ruby rain]

The sun....

[grim edge]

and the core of the earth

[grim edge]

the earth mud and rocks

[ruby rain]

Caves don't have to be miles underground to have heat

There's surface level caves with diamonds

[pastel plover]

I wish I was that smart 💀

[grim edge]

idk either i was just using my common sense but uh i guess i was wrong

[foggy anchor]

Look up the meaning of the word genius

Originally it means to be assisted by a good or evil genie

[grim edge]

thats not cheating then

[grim edge]

uh?

[foggy anchor]

Genie just like in Aladdin

Yes the og meaning of the word has been lost

It's not unlike jojo stands actually

[grim edge]

what is bro yapping on about 💀

I desire to lick my ceiling, goodbye

[ruby rain]

Just lost 9 straight and then won with 98 accuracy.. I think I'm getting reported 😭

[grim edge]

yes you are

Try etymology

[elfin pebble]

[primal shore]

Mate 💀

[grim edge]

I will give you milk from bottle and put you in a cradle

[grim edge]

bro is getting his sources

not from google

not from yahoo

Not from facebook

but from some random ass dictionary made by a 41 year old man in his moms basement 💀

you are heir of skull tribe ONG ONG

[primal shore]

Nobody gives two damns about the definition of a word from centuries ago, we care abt what it means now 💀

[foggy anchor]

Bro shut your ass up i just destroyed you

[grim edge]

fax

[grim edge]

destroyed me in what 💀

there was never an argument

[foggy anchor]

Also google isn't even a source it is a search engine for sources jfl

[ruby rain]

So it's a source...

[grim edge]

Jamal needs to put his head on my lap so I can give him formula from bottle

[primal shore]

Mate all of what we're saying rn wasn't even English 600 years ago, you want me to go there??

[foggy anchor]

No

[ruby rain]

[grim edge]

trust

[ruby rain]

Just the formula?

Not even milk

[grim edge]

And you somehow got the most illiterate, diabolical, astonishing website out of all the sources because you refuse to believe in the meaning today that everyone trusts in just to be different

[grim edge]

Skmsmwmw msmsmsmmsmsmsmsmsmmss

[foggy anchor]

So you don't know what etymology is?

Bros looking it up

[grim edge]

study of bugs right?

[ruby rain]

Beat thing you've ever said

[foggy anchor]

😂

[foggy anchor]

Close

[primal shore]

Again, no one cares about etymology, we care about the current definition

[foggy anchor]

Study of the history of the meaning of words

[grim edge]

study of the cause of a disease?

[grim edge]

my brain has been programmed to excrete dopamine whenever I say something stupid

[grim edge]

i disconnected because some random in my school turned on airplane mode 💀

[primal shore]

Why ☠️☠️

[grim edge]

etymology is basically the original definition of words from a long time ago

[foggy anchor]

Midwit take a word means what it consists of + what people accept it to mean

[solemn drum]

yo how can i get a mod i have a racist person calling me slurs in just chatting

I know you all accept the second meaning but not the first, if a word changes its meaning from what it literally means then the word needs to change

[solemn drum]

history is useful for the same reason etymology is useful
