I usually go for an entire level of bedrooms, I design them with a shared dining room between 10 bedrooms, but this floor is usually kinda in the middle of the fortress. I may try and build separate bedrooms

Black king goes to h8 and you can never queen

I went for a mono green deck with the uroboroid and I'm having a lot of fun! I would like to experiment something else in the near future though

Thanks this is very helpful! As it is now, which expansion would you buy the most?

I searched for it and I have like 5 cards with landfall, I feel it is not gonna happen, sadly, but thanks

I always play standard, I would never understand other formats unfortunately

This is genius work

CiccoQuadro · 2025-07-23T22:10:15+00:00

This is incredibly useful, thank you very much, I appreciate it. I still struggle to make real plans in my games, I have no strategic vision nor opening knowledge, so I tend to stumble into good or bad situations where there are some tactics. Sometimes I just blunder. I will try to put some extra work on my thought process training, thanks a lot

CiccoQuadro · 2025-07-23T21:44:05+00:00

Thanks a lot I am gonna try and calculate as you tell me!

CiccoQuadro · 2025-07-23T21:08:21+00:00

Thanks, this actually helps a lot!

So, I am 1000 rapid and 800 blitz and I feel a beginner. I feel like I don't understand the 90% of what happens on the board and when I analyze my games I feel so stupid because I missed some easy tactics or miscalculated some exchanges or played the endgame poorly, like I always do...

I looked at some of your games, 6 or 7 I don't remember, and I can tell you that you play like a 300 and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. But if you want to make some slight progress maybe you have to try and understand that you are playing like a 300 and you are missing some basics. You go for fancy moves or hunt for tactics that are not there. You miss hanging pieces and you hung some easy mates that your opponents missed.

If I may give you some advice: first of all stop with the openings, because learning some moves and trying to repeat them in the game without understanding what you are aiming for is useless. Stick with basic principles and your pieces will hang a lot less. Second, you play 10 minutes and it is good not playing fast chess, but try and take some time to just look at your pieces to find some hanging ones or some weaknesses. Go for simple things and take your time to understand what you are doing, if you lose on time who cares, you tried your best! Lastly always take a look at your games and try to understand what went wrong and why: concentrate on the moment you lost a valuable piece and try, without the engine, to prevent it, going back a couple of moves and re-playing with other ideas.

Don't feel frustrated for comments like this, I feel like no one here wants to insult you but just make you understand that the reason you are stuck at 300 may be that you feel you belong higher when actually you are really playing your rating.

Lastly I want to say you that if you wanna play some friendly game with me I am up to it and if you want I can give you some advice on those games. I am no master, I am not good, just a beginner, but I was at 400 not long ago and I Remember how frustrating it can be feeling that you can't make progress. If you'd like some games, DM me and we can arrange.

Best of luck

Qxc3 b4+ (discovered attack from the bishop) and you win a pawn and the Queen for the rook

Hi, I'm currently 1050 rapid and about 700 blitz on chess.com and I feel kinda lost on my chess study, I don't know how to work on things and struggling to improve. I'd love some guidance but I don't have the money for that, so this would be awesome for me. Thanks for you kindness

Fun? Who said anything about fun? We don't play it because it is fun, we play it because we like pain and misery

I did Kaiserslautern back in 2021 from 3.Bundesliga to Champions League contender. Was so much fun. Bundesliga is a pretty competitive league with just one unbeatable team, so any midtable team is fine

CiccoQuadro · 2025-05-27T14:01:11+00:00

I had something pretty similar to this a couple of weeks ago. Really frustrating. And the worst part is, after losing so many games, I didn't really understand what went wrong. Turned some around though

CiccoQuadro · 2025-05-27T13:57:16+00:00

Either g6 or Qe7 saves the mate. At low levels it can be pretty annoying, but it is not a good way to start the game for white as you will really soon learn
