I thought it was often a positional idea of potentially playing g4 to shove the knight from f3 when it can’t make use of d2 (other knight there) or e1 (rook is there)

[green jungle]

Strangely enough i have a very good score in the french but it's mostly bullet and blitz games where i go into the rubenstein every time and just bore and gore them to death by trading all of the pieces down

[delicate coral]

i got outsmarted haha that was hilarious

i learnt alot from that game especially in the last move

[warped vigil]

I see, can I ask why not?

[radiant flame]

why play boring

go for attack

[delicate coral]

thanks for teaching me that lesson jacob

[stable mirage]

discord suggestion: let us link lichess accounts

[warped vigil]

eh you didn't play as badly as you might have @delicate coral

[radiant flame]

that was my suggestion and i got flat out rejected

[green jungle]

because I never tried to learn the french, my current "french" repertoire is literally "if they dont push the pawn, take it"

[warped vigil]

same for me

[delicate coral]

i think i might have had a win but idk

[warped vigil]

for sure

[noble widget]

The main issue with the French is that it’s gross

[warped vigil]

💀

[stable mirage]

yikes

[warped vigil]

no it's not!!

[delicate coral]

i could maybe play for a draw cause you had 13 secs but i have respect lol

[radiant flame]

cc server is cringe!

[stable mirage]

agreed

[green jungle]

you'd be absolutely floored by the amount of people that just lose because i trade the pieces

[delicate coral]

you had a clear win there i had no business flagging

[radiant flame]

i bet ur a caro guy, shut ur mouth little guy

[rocky vale]

Is there a pirc fan here?

[delicate coral]

plus 13 secs is enough for you to mate i think

[noble widget]

Challenge level: ultra hard mode: try not to end up defending in French mainlines

[noble widget]

Ok buddy, i play scandi which is >>> French and caro

[warped vigil]

in my lines, White always defends and I attack

[radiant flame]

https://tenor.com/view/caro-kann-mario-judah-chess-garbage-gif-13664859192423569462

[radiant flame]

scandi is refuted

[green jungle]

cappin

[delicate coral]

1.b4 is superior to all openings

[warped vigil]

my lines are pretty aggressive

[normal hatch]

Yeah thats the idea. The reason I say attack is bc alot of ppl (my level) play h3 and 0-0. Which leads to an easy attack for black with that hook. Engine even suggests Rg8 ideas sometimes.

[radiant flame]

refuted to death

[noble widget]

I assume “your” lines are the ones where white doesn’t play challenging moves?

[warped vigil]

no

[noble widget]

Ur mom

[rocky vale]

Stop clowning

[radiant flame]

tennison gambit refutes scandi players to dead lost positions

[warped vigil]

White plays plenty of challenging moves

[radiant flame]

sorry, but its over

[green jungle]

There's no way a french defense repertoire exists where white doesn't attempt to attack

[noble widget]

H3 after g5 :catsnapped: that’s asking for it

[warped vigil]

"attempt" yes

[normal hatch]

Hell yeah!

[radiant flame]

if ur white, and play into exchange french, then delete ur acc

[normal hatch]

Alot of games where I demolish there

[radiant flame]

ur no better than london players

[green jungle]

Yes the same way black attempts to counterattack

[delicate coral]

i am going bye every1

[green jungle]

I unironically go into exchange french as white as often as i play the advance

[noble widget]

At least the london can have aggressive lines

[radiant flame]

https://tenor.com/view/london-uk-roblox-westminster-gif-18968049

[rocky vale]

[radiant flame]

ur sick

[warped vigil]

But I actually get attacking chances in most of my french lines

[green jungle]

i haven't played e4 in 4 years my apologies for sticking to simple things

[noble widget]

What line you play

[green jungle]

my e4 repoertoire is literally exchange variation every time

[warped vigil]

I'm coming to realize Exchange French can be played for more than a draw by either color

[green jungle]

except for the caro kann because i hate it with a passion

[radiant flame]

u should, chess is a game of tactical calculations, and not repeating the same moves to be in a simple endgame

[rocky vale]

Bird instead???

[green jungle]

can't win in the endgame?

[latent pebble]

How do I turn off notificationsb

[radiant flame]

endgame is just draw with exchanged, ur just trying to swindle a win

[green jungle]

played bird from 1700 to 2000 with 700 games but not anymore

[radiant flame]

and not win with ur calculations

[green jungle]

[rocky vale]

Uhmmm, Reti?

[green jungle]

yeah i play reti

[radiant flame]

the truth has spoken

[rocky vale]

Ayyy

You and I are not so different

[warped vigil]

1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 (3. Nd2 Be7 4. Ngf3 Nf6 5. e5 Nfd7 6. c3 c5 7. Bd3 Nc6 8. O-O g5) (3. e5 c5 4. c3 Qb6 5. Nf3 Nc6 6. a3 c4) 3... Bb4 4. e5 c5 5. a3 Bxc3+ 6. bxc3 Qa5 7. Bd2 Qa4

[green jungle]

☝️ 🤓 "the pawn structure is symmetrical therefore draw"

[radiant flame]

it is basically a draw

[green jungle]

actually skill issue bro

[warped vigil]

nah nah nah nah

[radiant flame]

unless ur opp blunders a piece straight up

[rocky vale]

Don't tell me you play Pirc with black!

[warped vigil]

c4 and c5 imbalance it

[radiant flame]

or is bad at endgames

ur playing for hope and not with ur calculations

[green jungle]

i play symmetrical pawn structures all the time, easy for me

[radiant flame]

that is boring!

[normal hatch]

Blunder

[warped vigil]

iirc Wenjun won with the French Exchange against a 2700

[green jungle]

chess isn't about calculating bro it's about ideas

[radiant flame]

and ideas come from calculating

[green jungle]

actually coping

[warped vigil]

chess is mostly about calc

[radiant flame]

do u see how contradicting ur statement is

[normal hatch]

150 solos

[green jungle]

no, calculations help carry out the ideas

but without a direction, calculation is useless

[radiant flame]

u sound like a london player

[green jungle]

London has no ideas so that's not a good analogy

[grim edge]

@green jungle this is you

[radiant flame]

ur idea is trading into an even rook game, and hoping ur opp blunders a pawn in the endgame

[green jungle]

yeah add 200 pounds

[warped vigil]

💀

[cobalt drum]

can i post one of my agme review here or is that against the rules

[radiant flame]

lets say 500 more

[normal hatch]

Feel free

[green jungle]

It's not hoping my opponent blunders bro have you never heard of converting an advantage or provoking weaknesses

[warped vigil]

you mustve gained weight really fast

[grim edge]

@radiant flame And this is you

[normal hatch]

Everyone does it

[stable mirage]

Instant ban

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/796863732499087370/885771045540352020/image0.gif

[radiant flame]

it will never happen in symmetrical rook and pawn endgames unless ur opp blunders horribly

[radiant flame]

good, i dont like bots

[green jungle]

It has definitely happened

[radiant flame]

so ur opp blundered horribly

there u go

[cobalt drum]

how do i belive you

[grim edge]

You should follow this fortune cookie

[radiant flame]

hes boyfriend of a mod here

[green jungle]

If you want to go there, we can argue that every game is won because the opponent blundered, therefore none of the results are as a result of ones skill

[rocky vale]

Play h4 h5 right?

[grim edge]

@green jungle When you feel defensice, examine what you fear

[warped vigil]

Guys, a 2700 Super-GM lost to the Exchange French. Seems to me that if a 2500 can beat a 2700 with it, maybe a 2100 can beat another 2100 with it

[umbral horizon]

true

[normal hatch]

Just bc u can win doesnt mean its fun.

[stable mirage]

well yes everyone makes horrible mistakes sometimes

[radiant flame]

ur idea of going into a symmetrical rook endgame makes the game 90% a draw if ur opps r competent enough. using and employing tactical ideas in the middle game will significantly increase ur chances of winning if ur good at calculating

[warped vigil]

So if a 2700 is making these "horrible mistakes" doesn't it seem reasonable to assume a 2100 might make them too?

[green jungle]

I am defending what I know to be true

And now we have the circular logic fallacy

[umbral horizon]

I always play the pirc and i somehow come on top of the game and win

[radiant flame]

||https://lichess.org/YYxiXZHs||

[umbral horizon]

even tho some idiot pushes their pawn to e5.

[normal hatch]

Fk someone got the link

[stable mirage]

I mean yeah the bongcloud can win in both doesn’t mean it’s good

[umbral horizon]

people play the most diabolical openings and win.

wtf is that

[green jungle]

Example: this position is even. If white won, would this mean that he got lucky, or he won through skill? And if black won, would it mean he was lucky or won through skill?

[normal hatch]

You die once u face it

[noble widget]

Why does that make them an idiot?

[radiant flame]

this is not an symmetrical pawn and rook endgame

[umbral horizon]

stupidly annoying + bad move

[grim edge]

@green jungle

[radiant flame]

this takes calculation

[green jungle]

Be3 Qd2 very quickly

[noble widget]

Pushing e5 when? Or just in general

[stable mirage]

2.e5

[umbral horizon]

in pirc defense.

[green jungle]

It's an example of a drawn endgame. You go into a drawn endgame, and you win. is that luck or not?

[umbral horizon]

i try to set up a kings-indian type attack and then someone goes and ruins it.

[normal hatch]

e4 d6 e5

[noble widget]

Ngl I asked a basic question and you didn’t understand, I think you’re the idiot

[stable mirage]

genius right

[normal hatch]

Bwomp

[grim edge]

U should follow this

[normal hatch]

Genius is a strong word

[rocky vale]

Pirc is great

[umbral horizon]

i also move the knight to set up kings indian type attack

[normal hatch]

Oh lord

[noble widget]

I think my Wr as white in the pirc is like 85%

[radiant flame]

not luck because it takes calculation to win, symmetrical rook and pawn endgame is no calculation

[normal hatch]

[radiant flame]

just shuffle back and forth

[stable mirage]

bruh mine is like 45%

[green jungle]

what about this

[radiant flame]

its rlly not the same

[normal hatch]

What do u play against it zel?

[umbral horizon]

how do i find that?

[noble widget]

Probably my highest of any opening with the white pieces tbh

[radiant flame]

could be some skill if its blitz or bullet

[noble widget]

That’s the trick, I have a super secret line which is amazing hehe

u should draw this easily in rapid tho

Why do I keep winning then

[green jungle]

There's also this. IM (2317) vs me (1780) 1-0. Symmetrical endgame (Although not just a rook endgame)

[noble widget]

Idk, you could try playing me though lol

any 2200+ players, how do i make my playing style more aggresive? i am trying to do it but it seems like i need to switch to e4 instead of e4 for it

I'm saying it's obviously not refuted

[noble widget]

I have respect for the bird though

[normal hatch]

Most pirc players are prob KID player aswell. Maybe thats the reason for them playing it

[noble widget]

I’ve played it myself on occasion

[radiant flame]

hi

[rocky vale]

Not me

[green jungle]

Me (2060) vs IM (2360). Would you say that black's choice of going into an endgame (he initiated the trades) was hope chess?

[rocky vale]

[normal hatch]

Idk why u would legitimately play it then

[warped vigil]

can we see the game

[radiant flame]

such a big lvl difference, obviously and its not a symmetrical rook and pawn endgame

[vale frost]

Yay i got nitro

[rocky vale]

[noble widget]

Dude the pirc is not good lol

[warped vigil]

gift it

[normal hatch]

Aight

[rocky vale]

How is it not

[green jungle]

You know that this argument occurred because of the fact that I choose to play the exchange french right? And not a symmetrical rook endgame?

[noble widget]

This is the highest level of cope ever seen in these dark corners of the chess world

[normal hatch]

Only reason I see tbh

[noble widget]

“Pirc is good”

[green jungle]

I don't know why you keep insisting about symmetrical single rook endgames

It's literally not relevant

[radiant flame]

very boring, and i said it was possible to win, but most likely will be draws

[rocky vale]

Next time get 800

[zealous panther]

[vale frost]

Am a prodigy am too good for that

[rocky vale]

Are we talking the German article?

[vale frost]

600 elo in 8 months aint easy

[radiant flame]

Otb is the line I don’t cross

[warped vigil]

600 in 1 week is pretty easy

[noble widget]

If you played more accurately in the opening, you would have had a slight edge as white but nothing too game-ending

[warped vigil]

yeah I remember

but that line is very un-dutchy

[rocky vale]

If you are far below your peak +600 in 8 months is more than pathetic

[warped vigil]

oh +600 in 6 months is ok

[noble widget]

Well it’s the only thing that doesn’t basically get crushed or get a crappy passive position

[vale frost]

Am kidding am 1670 in just 6 months

[warped vigil]

yeah

[noble widget]

Nf3 d3 doesn’t allow Dutch flavors

[rocky vale]

Well, where were you before the 6 months

[noble widget]

If you push d4 then my control over e4 is strong enough that we get Dutch stuff

[warped vigil]

I love to deny Dutch players their flavors

[stone quiver]

Ello

[noble widget]

What does that mean

[vale frost]

If were talkimg about 4 momths ago from now i was like 1200 i think

[warped vigil]

even after d3? Because the pawn structure is pretty different

[rocky vale]

I was talking 6

[radiant flame]

Just means I won’t play otb ever

[grim edge]

Bro blocked me because he didnt eat a banana yesterday 🤣

[noble widget]

No I mean 2.d4

[noble widget]

Why not

[warped vigil]

oh yeah ofc

[vale frost]

2 weeks i think when i started chess i spammed bullet when i was 100-600 LoL

Didnt even know what being in check meanz

[warped vigil]

but nah I'm not gonna give Dutch players what they want

[radiant flame]

I can never come back

[rocky vale]

Then it's ok

But usually it comes very fast

[noble widget]

Did you learn the 2.d3 line from Kamil?

[warped vigil]

no, my coach taught me

[noble widget]

Oh gotcha, cause theres a chessable course that has it

[vale frost]

My peak growth was like 1200 to 1600 then i got stuck around 1630,but rn am finally climbing slowly,its hard though

[warped vigil]

then I should switch cause I don't want Dutch players to know my lines

[noble widget]

Yeah that’s a really good point

Its not like this in painting discord servers or something lol

[warped vigil]

yeah

everyone knows who's better than them, and by how much

[noble widget]

Well I mean whatever you play is going to be covered by someone

[warped vigil]

I haven't found that to be the case

[rocky vale]

What's your repertoire

[noble widget]

nothing wrong with your d3 line, it’s probably the best response to 1.Nf3 f5

At least practically

[vale frost]

I dont play openings

[warped vigil]

💀

[vale frost]

Spam 4 knight variation

[rocky vale]

Explains a lot

[vale frost]

Then the game goes on depending on my choices

[analog shoal]

@warped vigil what is Ur rating?

[warped vigil]

2000 uscf 2000 cc rapid 1400 cc blitz

[rocky vale]

@vale frost What about with black

[noble widget]

Most bizarre stats ever tbh

[vale frost]

I wanma be like wesley so fr

[normal hatch]

I think blitz isnt his strong suit

[rocky vale]

@warped vigil How long do you think it'll take me to surpass the highest youth player in my area

Rapid == uscf is very unusual though

[warped vigil]

what's your rating, what's his rating

[rocky vale]

That's the problem

[warped vigil]

It's not even that

I just can't focus, as I've said before

[vale frost]

I learned chess by betting money with old men in the streets who spam the same 4 knights variation cant really blame me ;-;

[rocky vale]

I have 1561 he has 1659

[warped vigil]

well idk

there's a lot of factors

[analog shoal]

Or at least if U spam 4 knights learn the theory. Many IMs and FMs don't know end games but since they know oppenings well they get into easy winning end games

[cursive pawn]

I used to get money from old men for other stuff

Welcome to the other side. Life is a choice. You can choose to change yourself.
Here is my advice. Search for Anthony de Mello awareness on YouTube. Start listening to it every day

[grim edge]

my husband is

"You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life."- Albert Camus

[noble brook]

Oh ok ok

[marsh widget]

Have any of you guys gotten your account closed like at random ?

[noble brook]

Hihi

[grim edge]

havent experienced it

[foggy loom]

Life cannot have meaning. Meaning has to do with the mind, as long as you look for meaning your mind can boss you around.

[random crest]

No wbu

[meager tulip]

I will just wait and see what happens but thinking more about it is pain I know I am smart but I can't find a solution I just think that the brain can not accept this

[foggy loom]

You have to go beyond mind to find meaning, then it starts making sense

[random crest]

Bc u haven't found it if ur looking for it

[random crest]

It's very easy

[idle fern]

I'd recommend the pirc defense, if you can get it right, it defends and pushes opportunities for a knight and both bishops, one more tactical (king side) and one more offensive (queen side)

this works when the opposition plays e4 which is very common in 1000

[meager tulip]

what am I doing this .Sorry guys for bringing you into this have a good night

[random crest]

e4 Also very common in general

[static ridge]

nooo i lost when i was winning AGAIN I ALWAYS DO THIS

[idle fern]

definitely, but people in higher of what ive seen tend to use more advanced tactics and so sway from the normal

i see more people playing e5 for example

[static ridge]

this is why im not going up in elo

[foggy loom]

The reason we get depressed or whatever is because we out too much emphasis on things we don't have, things we can't control. Focus on things you have, things you can control, and you'll find greater appreciation for life. Easy to say

[grim edge]

Life is meant to be experienced not some puzzles to solve. In addition, people always change, so your perception of what life is in five or ten years may be different.

[static ridge]

i got dirtily flagged

i was up +1 in a two rook endgame

[random crest]

No, I don't think my perception of life will change

[meager tulip]

Yess that's why the other me is sayin to me he's the stoic one but idk if its enough

[static ridge]
