Polish is... questionable

[grim edge]

London isnt... questionable

[echo kestrel]

London sucks

[peak plank]

English is alright, I dont mind it because its mostly positonal and can transpose to QP games

[grim edge]

London is great*

[jolly warren]

It's good for intermediate and begginers

[echo kestrel]

I enjoy super aggresive openings. I could never play London or anything like that

[peak plank]

Reti is also nice

[echo kestrel]

I play King's Gambit and know every single line

[peak plank]

[peak plank]

At least she's interested

[jolly warren]

[night lion]

Did someone say ''free elo''?

[grim edge]

yes.

[keen charm]

Gains still come first and also God does

[obtuse needle]

“our” gf

[earnest mason]

The last thing you'd wanna hear from her would be "Why don't you spend more time with me instead of playing that stupid little game all day?"

[jolly warren]

Good boy

[keen charm]

Lmao

[night lion]

There is no such thing as ''free elo''

[keen charm]

Fr

There is.

[keen charm]

we're screwed

[earnest mason]

I got into trouble for doing that before so I just play the Fool's mate and hope my opponent plays e4

[keen charm]

Yea I’m glad man

[grim edge]

okay man

[dreamy siren]

Bruh why would you care about brilliant moves? You're high enough rated to know they don't represent brilliant chess properly.

[viral epoch]

Hello Yeeha

[stable mirage]

real

[keen charm]

Honestly I think my favorite opening might even be the Grob

[viral epoch]

It is

[keen charm]

Yes it is

[stable mirage]

none from femboy

[crimson kraken]

helo, how is you

[grim edge]

nope

its gay

[keen charm]

Embrace Masculintiy 💪🏻

[graceful lintel]

[graceful lintel]

[dreamy siren]

Nah

[keen charm]

LMAO

[viral epoch]

I'm fine it's freezing cold here, hbu

[keen charm]

How can I connect my account

[earnest mason]

I'd just play d4 and grab the pawn

[graceful lintel]

Do /connect

[dreamy siren]

@stable mirage I vowed I wouldn't be on discord until this day and I made it now is the day I get to be back

[echo kestrel]

As a person who has a connected account, I can confirm I didn't feel masculine before I connected it. I feel SO masculine now

[jolly warren]

You're doing really well in life, keep it up

[graceful lintel]

Yea exactly

[crimson kraken]

somewhat disappointed in our society where now I am allowed to use the word "rizz" in professional conversation

[keen charm]

True true

[restive storm]

alright

[jovial vector]

Dude had me scared thinking I was getting hit with a trap lmao

[keen charm]

I used to like the Kadas bc of the flank and then I would castle other side

[crimson kraken]

even though it's labelled as slang, people will still bring it to the workplace

[jolly warren]

Whatchu want

[stable mirage]

I see

[keen charm]

Thanks man you too. gains>>

[echo kestrel]

I have no idea how ICBM still works at 2100. I literally got it against a 2050 yesterday

[keen charm]

My least favorite opening is the cough London cough

[night lion]

cough System cough

[grim edge]

i got more cute cats for anyonr

[echo kestrel]

Honestly my least favorite to play against is probably the Reti out of all openings

[keen charm]

True True.

[echo kestrel]

I have absolutely nothing against it

[keen charm]

Reti is my favorite opening

[stable mirage]

exchange french is way more annoying imo

[jolly warren]

@echo kestrel how is doing scholars working at 1800

[stable mirage]

and the reti yeah

[earnest mason]

I hate the Scandinavian

[echo kestrel]

Idek but somehow it did

[night lion]

Magnus Carlsen's most used opening lately

[echo kestrel]

Ehh yeah I have nothing against it, but it's not difficult

[earnest mason]

What's even the point of bringing out the queen early?

[jolly warren]

Winrate?

[echo kestrel]

Protects against a ton of 5th row attacks and is difficult to chase away

[echo kestrel]

Lemme check

[keen charm]

But my favorite Gambit is probably the Blackmar Deimet

[jolly warren]

Same, my opponent played Scandinavian and lost

[earnest mason]

2 bishops can easily trap the queen there

[night lion]

It gives me satisfaction to make a queen sacrifice within a short time of making the move

[keen charm]

I used to like the Scandinavian Defense

[jolly warren]

Fr, you're just gonna fall behind development

[grim edge]

shut the hell up hickeru

[keen charm]

Levy’s Barber sacrificed his job with that last cut

[earnest mason]

All you need is 2 bishops, a knight and a few pawns

[echo kestrel]

Actuallly quite good. My 3rd most common response against e4 e5

[earnest mason]

And boom, trapped queen

[keen charm]

And a king

Everyone needs their king👍

[grim edge]

nope

[keen charm]

I Tore my shoulder ligament playing chess a few years ago 💀

[jolly warren]

[keen charm]

I used to play it a lot

[grim edge]

[jolly warren]

How much elo did it get u

[keen charm]

I was playing OTB

[grim edge]

[keen charm]

About +30 ELO after 12 games I losy some with it and won some with it

[grim edge]

[jolly warren]

Oh ok

[grim edge]

[jolly warren]

I should keep playing central

[keen charm]

“Incredinle”

[keen charm]

One of my favorite gambits is the Danish

[radiant frost]

My 100% accuracy game. I mean it's only 11 moves but still

[keen charm]

But I also like Queen gambit Central Variation

[earnest mason]

Man, I remember playing otb in a school event and won 6 out of 7 games. Feels good to dominate people

[stable mirage]

imagine not even 25 move 100%

[earnest mason]

That one game I lost, I played the Bongcloud

[keen charm]

I graduated in May

[earnest mason]

Guess I got overconfident

[radiant frost]

[keen charm]

My 19th birthday is on the 23rd

[earnest mason]

Oh wow. I just became a freshman only recently

[radiant frost]

I am 700

[keen charm]

Oh cool

[stable mirage]

irrelevant numbers

[radiant frost]

Bruh

[keen charm]

Honestly when I was a freshman the seniors wouldn’t pick on us it was teh juniors and sophomores so don’t worry and seniors

[radiant frost]

He resigned early

[stable mirage]

you should have 25 moves of prep

I’m extremely disappointed

[radiant frost]

Bruh he resigned

[earnest mason]

The longest opening line I know of is 21 moves bruh

[keen charm]

I had a 99.1% accuracy 46 move game earlier

[earnest mason]

How are you supposed to hit 25 moves of opening theory?

[stable mirage]

magic

[keen charm]

Bobby Fischers 21 Move Brilliancy

Bobby Fischer Or Magnus My G’s

I think Fischer because if he would kept playing he would probably reach 3000

[earnest mason]

Modern player? I like Hikaru.
Classic player? Mikhail Tal is my pick

[keen charm]

I LOVE TAL

the Soviet chess players were my favorite

[earnest mason]

Man... I gotta find a way to get in the chess club in my uni

I need some formidable opponents to play otb with

[keen charm]

I didnr go to uni I just had some businesses from when I was 14 and I made them bigger and now money is pouring in

[earnest mason]

Playing online too much hurts my otb vision

[keen charm]

What country you from I travel a lot so

[earnest mason]

Vietnam

[keen charm]

I’m actually gonna be there in January

[earnest mason]

Almost everyone I know were gonna go to Vietnam or have already been there, wth?

[buoyant leaf]

Most I've gotten as Black is 8 moves iirc

[keen charm]

Lmao weird

I was born in the USA but I have a Russian background and lived in Russia for like 3 years so I have dual citizenship

[radiant frost]

My opponent was making blunders in the opening itself so my moves were pretty obvious.

[earnest mason]

I remember refuting the Englund Gambit so hard that my opponent blunders and resign

[keen charm]

I used to like the Englund

[earnest mason]

I used to like the London, so I learnt how to counter the Englund because it always break my setup

[keen charm]

they should add a Queen sacrifice to the Englund it would suit it

[earnest mason]

Lol

How tho?

[keen charm]

Queen Elizabeth Gambit Declined 💀💀💀

[coral hatch]

Hello people of the world.

[earnest mason]

Heya

[buoyant leaf]

7 Moves, not 8

[earnest mason]

I wonder if it's possible for both players to get 100% accuracy

[coral hatch]

Post some links to really mind blowing chess games that will definitely blow your mind away.

[coral hatch]

Delicious, indeed. With a little mint sauce.

[lament jacinth]

What on earth is mint sauce

[coral hatch]

You take some mint candy, crush it and mix it with water to get mint sauce.

[lament jacinth]

Im going to actually block you

[keen charm]

Mint sauce is mint sauce 💯

[stable mirage]

there are much better ways of acquiring mint sauce

[candid river]

Good morning

[lament jacinth]

Im just curious what mint sauce id

[keen charm]

I acquire it by bank rank checkmates

[coral hatch]

Like, crushing mint leaves, you mean? That's so boring.

[lament jacinth]

[stable mirage]

I love back rank mating

[stable mirage]

[coral hatch]

You should try mixing mint sauce with coriander sauce and the combination is deadly. Add some green chilly sauce too.

[nimble niche]

I won an undeserved last round game to still tie for first place

[keen charm]

Do you sacrifice your queen like your country did?

[keen charm]

[lament jacinth]

put that on a burrito not shawarma dude

[keen charm]

I mated Someone to get my son….

[nimble niche]

everyone keeps saying that im gifted for being 2200 at 14 but that kid's 2200 at 11

[coral hatch]

Maybe use a fire extinguisher for my ass.

Our troops are better trained and are more strategic. They also have more fight in them. If neither of us received help from other countries I’d bet Armenia would win. What holds us back the most is traitors from our own country

Chess was invented in aztec times as a way to plan out battles

And predict the outcomes

Like if you see a bunch of army guys around a map in a movie moving little things around on it

basically that

[foggy rune]

Wasn’t the first versions invented by the Indians then the modern version reinvented by Armenians

[frozen jolt]

No clue

This is just what ive heard

[blissful kestrel]

[neon parrot]

I learned a new chess lesson: Tactics is literally all you need to get to 2000

Of course some principles and stuff but

99% of chess games are decided by tactics

One player did not see something, and the other player spotted it.

So yeah!

[upper condor]

lol

[grand shore]

that is the most basic advice I have ever heard

[neon parrot]

And its the most useful too

Tactics tactics tactics

[grand shore]

yeah no kidding

[neon parrot]

Don't worry about anything else

Chess is 99% tactics

[grand shore]

ok try and play any endgame with no endgame knowledge

[nimble niche]

chess is 99% tactics 1% dirty flagging

[lime lava]

Yup

[grand shore]

try and play any tricky opening and expect not to fall into prep

[neon parrot]

Well, You get a lot of endgame knowledge from tactics

They make it clear what you should do

[grand shore]

oh really? how so

[nimble niche]

Someone got me otb today with Jobava prep so I got a bad position out of the opening but I recovered it and won

[grand shore]

tactics don't teach you basic drawn K vs. K + P

[lime lava]

Bruh
If you can do 100 in puzzle rush you think you wont have endgame knowledge
In order to do puzzles you need knowledge
If you have knowledge to do puzzles you know a bit of everything and you get 2k

[primal mirage]

puzzles have 2 types, positional and tactical

[neon parrot]

That comes from practice, conversion does not come from tactics, you are right.
But it's so easy to win when you already have the advantage, and tactics give you that

[primal mirage]

that chess.com only gives tactical is not my problem

[grand shore]

hmm I guess that is sorta right

[primal mirage]

so w puzzles u gonn get to 2k

[nimble niche]

to get to 2000, just play wayward queen

[lime lava]

Of course they do haha
There are Many king and pawn vs king puzzle convertion

[grand shore]

A boring position with no imbalances gives no tactics for you to find.

[neon parrot]

https://lichess.org/training/pawnEndgame

[nimble niche]

nice link

[grand shore]

Only with a position full of imbalances does tactics come into play

[neon parrot]

Well, as I said, Practice and experience will help you

[nimble niche]

just play noteboom slav

[grand shore]

well I shouldn't say full, a few imbalances will be just enough I suppose

[grand shore]

exactly

[nimble niche]

if experience is good, get off discord and start practising

[grand shore]

but you are right, tactics are important but overall chess training is judged by the 1/3 rule imo

[neon parrot]

You shouldn't be giving examples based on GM games, Because in those games it's just a complicated process of converting the 0.6 advantage to a winning endgame. But that's like, 1% of all games

[grand shore]

1/3 playing and analysing games
1/3 tactics
1/3 openings, endgames, strategy

[primal mirage]

Let's be honest, until 2k they make so many mistakes, theres always an opportunity to create chances

[grand shore]

you're not wrong there

[nimble niche]

i do 0% endgame study, 0% puzzles training and 100% randomly sacking in blitz

[grand shore]

even above 2k

[neon parrot]

It's super rare for a game not to be decided by any mistake

[grand shore]

had a 2230 player blunder M1 on move 12 💀

[primal mirage]

yeah definiteiyl but the higher u get, the less mistakes there are and the more u have to rely on positional understanding instead of tactical

[primal mirage]

XD

[nimble niche]

I've checkmated 2100s in 7 moves before

[neon parrot]

I see mistakes even in most GM games

[grand shore]

nice

[primal mirage]

even 2400s blunder big time

but just less occurent

[neon parrot]

Tactical combinations - Come from practicing tactics
1/3 openings, endgames, strategy
Comes from experience and playing games

[nimble niche]

e4 d5 d4 e6 premoved f3 dxe4 fxe4 Qh4+ Kd2 Qxe4 Nf3 Bd6 Nc3 Bf4#, happened twice before

[neon parrot]

And studying

But if you ask me, Actually studying is like 1/5th
The way that the brain actually learns is by practice, and doing stuff

More doing, less listening

[nimble niche]

yeah it's just that 2400s can survive long enough against each other to capitalise on at least one of their opponent's blunders

[primal mirage]

ye

[neon parrot]

Also, Lichess is much better for practicing and learning chess, while chess.com is better for playing the game itself, in my opinion

[nimble niche]

except bullet and variants, i agree

https://www.chess.com/member/narcissa_malfoy

how is this guy 2174 fide and 2274 uscf with NM title?

his chess.com rapid and blitz are lower than his fide

[digital phoenix]

its like why is there a gm stuck at 2200 blitz

I think this is the explanation to the "Chess is 99% tactics" Debate
"The importance of tactics depends on the level of play. Up until a rating of 2000, chess might be 99% tactics, but from 2000-2500 it might be 80% tactics, and at the super GM level it might be only 25% tactics"

[nimble niche]

those ratings are fide

I'm not even 2k fide

You being 2200 wouldn't change anything in your life

[bright folio]

u are pro

[neon parrot]

But, it's cool being so high rated

Magnus carlsen!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nimble niche]

One mistake lost me $45 today

[undone dove]

Wot

[neon parrot]

[nimble niche]

I trapped my rook otb and tied for first instead of being outright first

[neon parrot]

But really, Even starting at 100 means you'll suck at chess for the rest of your life

[nimble niche]

fr

[supple imp]

If you even get below 300 you're probably just never going to be good at chess

[neon parrot]

Well, I started at 350, I don't think it's that bad

I'm almost 1300 now

[boreal coyote]

yall think i (around 800 elo) can beat a 1500 rated national player(but stuck at 1500 for 2 years)??

[supple imp]

I started at 400

[digital phoenix]

no

[supple imp]

No

[digital phoenix]

just forfeit

[boreal coyote]

No

[grand shore]

overwhelmingg support

[supple imp]

Fr

[neon parrot]

Like, both 300 and 100 is bad, But 100 is a different kind of bad, I don't think anybody should be starting at 100

[junior wind]

Nope it's obvious

[boreal coyote]

fr, chess.com discord community is so helpful

[digital phoenix]

finally somrthing this whole server can agree on

[junior wind]

Well maybe if he blunders a queen or sum

[digital phoenix]

i doubt an 800 can win up a queen

[supple imp]

People that are between without sandbagging 100-200 are just special

[nimble niche]

i beat a 1600 fide in round 1 of the only fide tournament i played

[junior wind]

If they prolly misclick the queen by accident and he managed to see it

[supple imp]

I drew a 1982 fide in a classical tournament, the position was actually better for me but I didn't want to grind it out
