I’m stuck at 900, I win from 1400 1200 etc, but only when I’m not mistaken. I always blunder something and I’m stuck now at 900 ELO. I hope I stop blundering, I’ve always been very rich in imagining things, sometimes i get so carry away that I totally forget the attack of my opponent and focus only on my attacks.
The fact that you’ve acknowledged that already tells me you’ll be fine, if you can beat 1400s there’s no reason to suggest you can’t be that rating yourself. Just remember chess is a two player game, your moves are just as important as theirs
@@Chess4Noobs-rl9cz thank you, can i add you as friend to play against you ? If it’s not to much to ask.
Sure thing! Just send me a friend request and we can play a game at some point
Wouldnt Knight B5 be better? You could then move pawn to D6, then eat the C7 pawn and check the queen, readying a pawn promotion.
The idea is sound in principle, however Nb5 is met with a6 and you just get forced to go back unfortunately
The last time I blundered a piece was over a year ago. I always have a move in mind but then I first check for like 10 or 20 seconds if this move blunders anything.
Impressive! Exactly what everyone should be doing, I’m assuming this streak only applies to longer time control games?
@@Chess4Noobs-rl9cz Yeah, I personally don't really like playing Bullet or Blitz since I don't really see the point, I've always preferred more serious time controls.
Yeah I have exactly the same view, can be good fun but I enjoy trying to improve above all which is far better done in slower chess
Hey :)
I'm about 1,000 Elo and I'm wondering what I should do to get better? What steps did you take?
Hey man excellent question, key points I always stand by are:
Pick an opening you LIKE, play it all the time
Pause for half a second before each move to see if anything has been blundered
Actively question what your opponent is doing, don’t assume they are smart
@@Chess4Noobs-rl9cz Alright. Thanks for the tips :)
Backyard Professor on CZcams calls it “solid chess”! Easier said than done I suppose!
It absolutely is 😂 sometimes a tactic can be too enticing, or slow chess can be too boring
@@Chess4Noobs-rl9cz I need slow and boring sometimes to give me half a chance! 😉
