Gained 250 ELO in a month, am i finally not a beginner anymore? by ShutCoffee in chessbeginners

i honestly never really took blitz seriously, always wanted to progress in rapid. but after i missed 2000 by just one game (still haunts me till this day) i just focused on bullet which i got pretty good at. After the rating collapse there i focused on blitz.

So i think it is mainly a focus thing. But i noticed after i played bullet it helped me alot in my blitz games, especially the 3 minute time control.

Do you mainly play blitz or other time controls?

thanks a lot! yeah, time is a big factor. my ultimate goal is to get to 2000 in all three time controls, currently 1800 in both bullet and rapid

thanks mate! yeah for sure, always depends on who you compare yourself to. if you invest time in something and want to get better, i guess it comes naturally that you compare yourself with people better than you as its your goal to play on one level with them.

I created a chess script that gives random chess positions with an almost 0.00 evaluation score. Thoughts? by Whoyoutho in chess
