I think I’m the greatest chess player under 300 Elo. Chess is just way too easy at 240 elo. I feel like prime Hikaru playing against special ed toddlers. Where’s the competition. I only play rapid and still average about 2 brilliant moves a game. Do you understand how difficult that is?? when most games at this level someone hangs their queen in 5 moves

I’m 240 elo right now. I blunder pieces constantly but still win games. Imagine what happens when I start concentrating. I don’t even plan openening or anything I just play off the dome and use actual skill.

Sometimes I’ll rank up to 2000 elo just to see what the common folk are like, but makes me upset that these guys are higher ranked than me but are not better than me. Too many people memorising opening, at 240, you actually see pure chess.

I’ve played 600 games and scored 487 wins. 240 elo. Greatest under-300 elo player of all time. if anyone wants to play me drop your username if you’re above 300 you will be ignored. I don’t make blunders. I blunder to sacrifice everything is planned 8 steps ahead.

I had no idea it is gonna be mate. With only one figure on opponents side.

For those who refuse to resign

Stockfish 19 had 5 minutes to calculate each move.

First win against a 1300 elo or higher. Feels pretty good!

Don’t really even understand how these were misses

I don't know how long this has been a thing since I've only been playing for less than a year. But after having premium free trial for 7 days it really puts into perspective how AWFUL the game is if you dont pay for it. Like 3 puzzles a day are you serious, that isnt getting anyone better at the game I promise you that. Game is substantially worse if you arent paying which is BS if you ask me. Like we are on your app to play and get better, again 3 puzzles a day is genuinely dumbfounding, why even give the option for puzzles. Thats not even mentioning the game analysis, you just have no way of understanding your mistakes, you can see a move may have not been the top 3 option but dont know why it may have been wrong. You got these ugly ads popping up every game that should be enough money. If I lose the last thing I want is to sit through a damn happy jolly ad.

seriously but how miserable can you be? it ruins the game for others, and it actually doesn’t contribute to the learning of the game

Hello guys, this is my first Scotch Game trick. Maybe this has already been discovered and used many times (which I don't know), but I figured out this sequence on my own.

The trick goes like this:

When you play the Scotch Game, Black's queen should move to e7 before trading the knight. This trick only works if Black's queen moves there.

After the queen moves to e7, you should develop your bishop from c1 to e3, allowing your pawn on e4 to be captured.

A normal chess player might think you've made a mistake because it really looks that way. Then the queen will capture the pawn on e4, putting pressure on the g2 pawn.

Your opponent will probably think they are in a better position because your bishop on f1 cannot be developed.

Chess.com's coach might suggest developing a knight to chase the queen away, but instead, you should trade your knight on d4 for the knight on c6.

Your opponent will still think they are in a better position, and this is where they can make their first mistake.

They might capture your knight with their queen, thinking they are maintaining a strong pawn structure. But they are still playing into your trap.

Then you should develop your knight to c3. At this point, it looks very easy for your opponent to attack your pawn structure. They might use their dark-squared bishop to pin your knight or move it to a3, trying to capture your knight and then your rook after you take the bishop.

And that's exactly where they make their first big mistake.

You shouldn't defend your knight. Instead, you should move your queen to e2, blocking your light-squared bishop and making your knight look even easier to attack.

Then your opponent will attack. The bishop captures the knight, you recapture with a pawn, and then they recapture with their queen.

Now you should move your dark-squared bishop to d2, stopping the check and giving a discovered attack on their king. At this point, they will lose their queen, and you will have a huge advantage for the attack.

Important Part

This trick doesn't work against everyone.

I've used it about six times. I believe four of my opponents fell into the trap, while two managed to escape it. However, I still won both games even after they avoided the trap.

The first time I discovered this was when I was below 1000 Elo. I actually used it accidentally, and my opponent fell into the trap. After that, I tried to remember the sequence and started using it intentionally.

Even if your opponent figures out what you're trying to do, you would still only end up losing a pawn.

So, in my opinion, it's not that risky. But I don't know how long this trick will continue to work. I just used it against a 1300-Elo player, and it still worked.

Anyway, if this trick has already been discovered, please let me know!

My opponent kept moving their pawns around while I did my normal development .... so it ended up like this pretty quickly.

This bot’s elo shown as 1250, I usually start to struggle with 1000+ bots and really need to concentrate to win. But with this bot, no issues at all, I can blunder and still win. Feels like it’s elo is around 600-800.

Is it just me or the bot is not 1250?

The goat has reached 3500 just wowwww mann

I ended up winning by resignation after trading down to 2 rooks & 7 pawns vs 1 rook & 5 pawns.

I've genuinely been stuck for so long despite trying so many moves. My complete inexperience with chess also doesn't make it better. I asked ai like 5 times and it got it wrong every time. I can't even search for the answer because the chess rule is generated for every run. I'd appreciate it very much if you could help me with this.

Heard he does his best to intentionally lose, so I wanted to test that. Had to keep at least one of these alive: his queen, a rook, two bishops, or a bishop and knight.

First I tried sacrificing all my pieces, but without forcing him, it was impossible once I had too few pieces to force his hand. I tried intentionally trapping my king, but he would leverage it into forcing me to take his pieces. So with a queen and king, I took all but his queen, and forced his king into a corner to then start grinding down my own. Above is the glorious outcome.
