Ok so I'll prep that way. If no grunfeld then london is the only other alternative? (Minus acolle ig)

primal viper
#

i suggest grunfeld for qgd and c5 lines against london

primal viper
#

again im not sure what exactly the variations are called but those are relatively hard for white to play against

#

and dont require too much prep as black

wide vortex
#

For grunfeld some mainlines a few moves deep with ideas should be enough

#

I looked into that opening a few weeks back

#

As for London from what I know you pressure the b2 pawn to make it annoying

@tribal grove Bro, are you able to have a normal conversation? Right after the puzzle, you asked why the f7 line was losing. I only said that I knew it was losing, not that I knew why. The thing is, I don't have to know why it's losing to affirm that it is, exactly because it's puzzle rush. Looking at the engine was only to show you, I didn't say it was losing after looking at it, I said it right away. Why are you making such a big deal out of it?

tribal grove
#

i even left the call and you're here pinging me about it

exotic abyss
tribal grove
#

dw i understand what happened

#

it's like i said the line at the start but pretty sure you were focusing on something else so you didn't hear the line

#

so when you checked the engine directly after Ke5 and you asked me how is this winning

#

it sounded like you were pretending it was clearly losing there but it's just you weren't listening to the line the first time so you didn't get it

#

just a misunderstanding

#

ok, I apologize, just dont like when words are put in my mouth

If they asked you to DM them, sure.

Otherwise, if somebody asks something like any coaches here? you are welcome to reply something like I am, my DMs are open.

You can also change your nickname to something like FertSoil | Chess Coach and indicate in your discord profile (or server profile) that you are open to DMs about coaching.

"I’m organizing online group chess lessons for players who want to improve in a structured but relaxed environment. The main focus of the lessons is tactics and strategy, combined with in-depth analysis of students’ games.

During the sessions, we identify common mistakes, improve decision-making, and turn those ideas into clear, practical concepts you can apply in your own games. We also cover:
• practical opening ideas (no heavy theory)
• typical middlegame plans
• tactical patterns and strategic thinking

Each lesson lasts 120 minutes, groups consist of 4 students, and we meet 8 times per month, which allows for consistent progress and plenty of interaction.

If this sounds interesting, let me know and I’ll be happy to send you more details about the schedule and price. No pressure at all 🙂"

At some point I dropped this level to try harder ones because I already have 97x6 by then it didnt really matter but decided to finish it before chrismas and beat the level on the day I started to pick it up again @ebon root

ebon root
#

really?

peak plank
#

yeah

ebon root
#

congratulations, I'm proud of you but is it now ur hardest or just a random insane demon

#

mb for the dumb question 😭

peak plank

hardest lol

ebon root
#

That's cool

#

I remember when my hardest was electrodynamix

#

remember me?

peak plank
#

I remember you complaining about the ufo

#

its not even a hard part

ebon root

#

no ._.

ebon root
#

mbb

#

fine ill go back to windy landscape

peak plank
#

good

ebon root
#

but I have jawbreaker on 2 runs aswell so I might have to do 34-100 on that

peak plank
#

you already beat nine circles you dont need to beat jawbreaker

ebon root
#

I accidentally got progress it's for fun

peak plank
ebon root
#

woah

peak plank
#

now

ebon root
#

You should do 75-100 on silent clubstep too, it's lowk easy but it impresses people

peak plank
#

lol idc about memory

ebon root
#

If you don't bother I can tell you the jumps

ebon root

1234,1123,12,123456,123456789101112131415, 12345678910, 12345

#

Free

#

also not counting the first jump

#

Otherwise it would be 12345 if that makes it easier

ebon root

yeah

#

again, I did ahve 97x7 on staslemate

#

which hurts

ebon root
#

I gave up on stalemate cuz I couldn't get past the first ship, even though i could've beat it

#

Tralalero tralala

peak plank
#

the ship in the drop is harder

ebon root
#

that was the free part

#

I died at 80 like a trillion times

#

I have 60-100, atleast

#

OMG OMG WAIT

@peak plank I have a quick question, if 26-32 is the hardest part. Will I fluke windy landscape cuz I have 34-100? I got 0-22 only btw

peak plank
#

but I think nailing the start helps you for the rest of the level

Winter golf is the worst, especially if you have cast club heads and strike off centre

fringe hatch
#

id rather hot than cold

cold makes it so hard to move

#

hello

dusk sparrow
#

My best round was 9 over and that’s with a double bogey on the 18th

#

(Went 3 off the tee lol)

fringe hatch
#

should probably do that until i make my first sub 100

#

and then ill do whatever i want again

#

(my best was 101 😔😔😔)

#

and my short game is shit for at least my first like 5 holes

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

probably can warm up maybe

fringe hatch
fringe hatch
#

my safe shots only work abt 60% of the time

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

yeah i think thats typical

#

i never got one its just approximate

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

yea 3 5 driver

#

most of my strokes probably come from like

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

perfectly easy shot on the fairway or rough

#

i whiff and it goes 10 yards

#

or it goes right into the tree for some reason

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

the other times my drive slices off the cliff

dusk sparrow
#

Oh you struggle with a slice?

fringe hatch
#

i wish

#

it depends everytime i play

dusk sparrow
#

Lol, yeah just hit the range a couple times a week you’ll find your natural shot shape eventually

fringe hatch
#

i have some different problem everytime but tbf my playing is like only when im back home so like twice a year maybe 3 times each time

#

i also agree i will probably improve if i practice 😂

#

but to me my greatest achievement in golf is not getting tilted by my bad play so im having fun nonetheless

dusk sparrow
#

Yeah no point in tilting tbh

fringe hatch
#

yeah there is nothing on the line 😂 other than maybe the 4 people behind us

dusk sparrow
#

And I would hate to be stuck behind you on the course

fringe hatch
#

hahahaha

#

but i think the biggest time improvement comes from playing slow but everything else doing quickly

#

usually its not too bad i think

dusk sparrow
#

What’s your putting like?

#

Still 4 Putt? Lmao

fringe hatch
#

i feel like its okay

#

like lemme pull up my golfshot

#

i think most my short game strokes comes from chipping

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
fringe hatch
dusk sparrow
#

I can’t believe you hit the fairway 50% of the time

fringe hatch
#

😂😂😂

dusk sparrow
#

Also don’t worry about getting custom fit for clubs until you get to at least 18hc

fringe hatch
#

at the course i play usually theres not a lot of rough

#

like big chance fairway or just OB

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

very nice views at the course because sometimes OB looks like its gonna go right into the ocean

fringe hatch
fringe hatch
#

well i just use my dads clubs

dusk sparrow
#

Do you know anything about lie angles etc and different shafts?

fringe hatch
#

is lie angle like when the ball is on a slope

dusk sparrow
dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

i probably could’ve answered you correctly 10 years ago

#

and shaft i think its graphite

#

idk how much more specific it gets

dusk sparrow
#

Changes the balance of the club

fringe hatch
#

yeah

#

easier than iron shaft right

dusk sparrow
#

Easier? Aha

fringe hatch
#

idk cuz i think for some people with a fast swing you want something more rigid right

dusk sparrow
#

Yeah so anything over 80mph you would want a stiff

#

That’s swing speed not ball speed

fringe hatch
#

yeh

#

if i swing that fast i will miss the ball entirely

fringe hatch
#

and let me know if u got any burning chess questions 😂💀

dusk sparrow
#

And if there swing is consistent you will see a reoccurring shot shape

fringe hatch
#

my dads a little taller

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

shot shape as in like the 9 combinations of spin and direction? idk what theyre called

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

yeah i was gonna say i try to hit it straight but i will lucky draw for all 9 shapes 😂

dusk sparrow
#

That’s why you have to sort your swing instead of playing for that shot shape haha

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

maybe ill make 100 this holiday

#

if i play in a month like about every week then things will stay in my head

dusk sparrow
fringe hatch
#

that makes sense

#

but when im back at uni i just cant do that unfortunately

#

imagine it was like chess and i can just pull up golf.com on my phone and practice

fringe hatch
#

so to me i think there is not a lot stopping chess improvement tbh

#

but also if i wanted sub 100 hard enough then id probably be trying harder 😂 not that its impossible

I went to an amusement park a couple weeks ago

green jungle

#

And in one ride there was like a height limit to whom can enter

green jungle
#

i know where this is going

spare dome
#

And 52 inches reached half of my head so I calculated it to be 54 inches

#

Googled it and gave me 4'6

#

How are you playing setter though?

green jungle

#

When me and my teammate were practicing they noticed something about me

#

I was good at receiving the ball

#

So for like example the ball was given to us

mild wyvern
#

essence

spare dome
#

One of my teammates passes it to me

#

And I receive it straightly enough to make it just look like it's levitating

mild wyvern
#

essence can i ask where are you from

spare dome
#

#

Just school level, really only touched volleyball again for our foundation day

green jungle
# spare dome I can't micro

my micro is decent honestly and my macro is decent but the problem is none of it is anything special so against people that are similar skill level at best i am "carryable" but being the carry is a bit too much. Also i main exp so like

#

i hate how checkmate is popular because now theres a bunch of minsi glazers when hes like a c tier one-ult wonder

#

ive never struggled against a minsi

spare dome
#

Tried going damage badang

#

Since we had like

#

How are you so good? What are your secrets?

Capablanca's play style is so simple honestly

#

Doesn't require much thinking

green jungle
spare dome
#

You can actually consider it as a brain-dead playstyle

green jungle
#

all his games are like "ill just play normally and improve my pieces every move until my opponent does something stupid then i win"

#

it's actually magic

spare dome
green jungle
#

ok well

#

i wouldn't be putting capa as the poster boy for creativity

#

that has to go to nimzowitsch no contest

spare dome
#

His creative when it comes positionally though

green jungle
#

always been a nimzowitsch fanboy

spare dome

But tactically, it's always gonna be tal

placid spear
#

Can you guide me?

#

I want to reach 2000 asap

green jungle
#

i can answer questions

#

i dont really know about coaching

placid spear
#

Okk

#

How did you reach that rating?

green jungle
#

fluke, im really a 2300 player, but assuming you mean my current level and not 2400+ specifically, well, I studied a lot and played a lot, the specifics will differ from person to person. But for example, when i was going from 1100 to 2300, I would spend on average 6 hours a day on chess, no off days, this went on for over a year

green jungle
#

yeah

#

basically every bit of free time i had i spent it on chess

#

which is a bit less than 6 hours on school days and much more on non school days

placid spear
#

Cool, how did you divide those 6 hours?

green jungle
#

i didn't really divide them into anything in particular. I just liked reading, then if i saw something interesting I'd mentally note it and try to replicate it in game. Then I analyze the game, but the important part is that when you analyze you have to ask why you made the mistakes you did, and how you can play better moves in the future. It was probably around like 4 hours studying in some way and 2 hours of play / analysis

cerulean igloo
green jungle
placid spear
#

for 4 hours

green jungle
#

books and some youtube lectures but mostly books

#

i have like 37 books now

placid spear
#

and then played for 2 hours

placid spear
green jungle
placid spear
#

I would love to see those!

placid spear
#

Do you have them on you rn?

green jungle
#

i mean did you want like a photo of them or what

placid spear
#

I mean if you want to!

green jungle
#

not really

placid spear
#

Well you can name them, I am going to read all those 37 HYPERS

green jungle
#

just focus on logical chess for now

#

the majority are opening books and arent really relevant

#

for example i have two on the birds opening, two on the colle system, one on czech benoni, one on budapest, one on nimzowitsch defense, and so forth

cerulean igloo
green jungle
#

i could be considered an openings enjoyer in fact

placid spear

Do you suggest any books?

1usd is 7.77 hkd

wispy depot

so like $7 for a meal, thats def cheaper than where i live

#

fast food has been shit for years now here. its overpriced, they take way too long to make it, and its crap

#

its always been crap but when it was cheap and convenient i was willing to put up with that part KEKW

light pecan
#

It’s more expensive than in China mainland. You get a full meal. With either rice or noodles and maybe even a side dish and a drink for around 25 yuan

#

And in HongKong to get the same thing you pay around 3 times more than in China mainland

wispy depot
