Tips to boost elo rating


okay. I looked at some of your games. 1) stop trying to win the entire game with just your queen! is she a superstar? you betcha. put she plays on a team. get the other pieces into the game. 2) do you know that you can block a check with one of your own pieces? stop moving the King with every check. 3) do you know what castleing means? if yes do it. if not, look it up or ask someone.

Improving at chess can be quite challenging, but there are various ways to enhance your skills.
For those looking to improve without coaching, here's some valuable advice:
1. Play Frequently: The more you play, the better you'll become at recognizing patterns and making strategic decisions.
2. Analyze Your Games: Review your past games to identify mistakes and areas where you can improve. This self-analysis is a powerful learning tool.
3. Focus on Tactics: Tactics play a crucial role in chess. Spend time solving tactical puzzles and exercises to sharpen your tactical skills.
4. Learn from Masters: Studying grandmaster games can provide insights into advanced strategies and tactics.

"Under 400". Good joke.
Yes, technically true. 100 is under 400.

Look, here's the thing. Most of this from above, it's WAY too advanced for you at the moment.
I'd advise only following #1.
Now for the real advice that surely helped out quite a lot of my friend is this:
NO PREMOVES
NO TACTICS
NO GAMBITS
NO SACRIFICES
- Know how the pieces move
- Control and move towards the center
- Castle as soon as possible
- Don't hang free pieces + take free pieces
- Activate your king in the endgame + Attack pawns (and pieces)
* Capture pieces of equal work greater value whenever possible (avoid the 2 rooks for a queen, for now)
* Remember pawns don't count as pieces
* Always attack a bishop or knight on the g4/g6/b4/b6 with the A or H pawn immediately
* Create an escape square for your king once you finish development!
* Spend just as much time on your move as your opponent (or less!) Use your time to think, but don't get low on time.
* Spend a lot of time at the beginning to follow all the rules.

Yes, this is some good advices for a beginner

Chessterd5, I thank you for your advice, but can you please be more kind in your phrasing from now on?

Let the link speak for itself
Im stuck on 770 elo. I want to get to 1000 please help
The easiest thing a chess player can achieve.
Choose the basic package if you want to get to 1000- 1200 elo
Once we do that, you can progress to the standard package where you go from 1200 to 1800 elo.
It tooks me years to get this understanding, I am going to give it away in few sessions!
Chessterd5, I thank you for your advice, but can you please be more kind in your phrasing from now on?
When are you going to achieve 1800 rating or something? After the world ends?
If you want to seriously improve your chess instead of wasting time by taking few lessons on chess.com forum and youTube videos that are entertaining, then I have given you the idea.

#10, I apologize if it was harsh. it was not my intention. My intention was to show you in a practical way that you are not using basic fundamentals of the game. here is an idea that will help you in the opening. it works for white and black. for white play g3, Bg2, Nf3, and 0-0 then play chess. for black play g6, Bg7, Nf6, and 0-0 then play chess. this will put your king in a safe place, it will develop two pieces and then you can decide which center pawns to move forward. good luck👍
