Hard-stuck in 800

I am stuck around 800 ELO on chess.com. I can easily take down 1200s and 1300s, when I play them, so why am I stuck at 800? If anyone has any advice or knows why I am stuck, please tell me.

It may seem like you are stuck at 800 or losing your rating, but you are gradually increasing. You won't will every game so it will take a while. Sometimes what may see like it happening, doesn't mean it actually is. Don't worry, you said you could take down 1200s and 1300s so you will get to around that.

Im stuck at 1000 even if I won against 1100s,1200,1400

I have the same problem

I am taking brakes for two weeks and that boosts about 50-100 elo, I’ve done it like five times.

Do you have an opening you know and love? If not, get one. Even if you do, I would recommend switching to something aggressive like a Danish gambit. Not that you couldn't keep gaining elo without one, but it can definitely help (and give you a confidence boost to play aggresively at the same time)

Also switch up your piece/board font from time to time. Sounds dumb, but I always play better after I do.

make is -25 and +any to get more rating

Everyone plateaus in their rating from time to time, it's just natural.

It might be that you struggle in complex positions. Playing 1300s is much easier than playing 800s because the positions that you get are usually very similar. With 800s, you never know what you're gonna get.

I'm also trying to break a plateau... I've found that I can regularly beat/draw higher rated opponents but (also regularly...) lose to lower rated opponents. That probably means my rating (for now) is probably about right. To improve, I have to maximize the benefit of that first set while minimizing the second.

For me that means really focusing on those games, being extra careful, being solid and looking for tactics. The plan (in order of importance) is 1) do tactics, 2) bear down on the higher risk (lower rated) opponents, 3) continue to be aggressive in lower risk (higher rated) games.

if you really can take down intermediate players like you say, you will hit that rating before you know it. But even still I recommend watching the Gothamchess video on how to hit 1000 elo, and once you hit it watch his video on hitting 1500. while that is a long way away, there is a ton of information in that video that will still apply to your level.

Also if you only play intermediate players OTB make sure they are using chess.com because 1300 on lichess probably translates to about 800 on chess.com.

As is customary I looked at your games to see what is going on. First off I assume that you are talking about blitz because your rapid is like 1100. but you have a total of 27 games in the last 30 days. By no means would I say you are "hard stuck" play some more games but you only have one win against a 1200+ player so I am not sure about this hole "easily thing" Now to be clear I am not calling you a liar just saying (from experience I might add) that it is really easy to remember your best wins and feel you belong there but the more that you play the more you will realize there are some games that you played like an absolute legend compared to your normal plays and some days where you probably gotta look at how a horsy moves again.

I am a firm believer that you should focus on your worst play and search for your most common mistakes and build from there. For me I really struggle in noticing tactics and playing sound middle games. So for me personally to improve I have to clean up that middle game and stop and take more time to search for tactics in my games because I am notorious for having way more than half of my time left in longer time controls. (I almost exclusively play OTB right now so I am not even sure if my chess.com rating is accurate, I could be getting worse for all I know.)

just increase the rating range; you will go against higher players, and you won't lose as much rating

Oh i didn't even realize it was a blitz rating. 800 is blitz is definitely the pits, in that players are very solid at everything- tactics, traps, openings and time control. because 800-900 blitz players are so experienced throughout, any weakness of yours (time control?) will be exploited and will lost you elo even if you are a stronger player in general. I would focus on shoring up any weak areas, so you can be all around superior to your opponents. Also just try and never resign (not resigning= free elo)

That's a good tip… Except, IDK if I can Handle NOT Playing that long… U see, I'm pretty ADDICTED to chess & whether I get better or worse I still need My FIX…This might be funny, but while writing this I have come to see that I should take a break of more than a couple weeks…

I don't need another GOD because 'YHWH', God of The BIBLE's supposed to be The God that I proclaim… So I should take this quote more seriously… And with that, my decision is made…
