Why nobody plays chess 960?
Sort:
Its one of the best things i discovered.. It is pure calculation since you cant really memorize openings unlike classic chess. In chess 960 you can put your mind into work and you will never face an opponent who isn't because they have memorized a bunch of books and openings...etc. not to mention.. IT IS ANTI CHEAT. Since every game is so unique you cannot use a bot to calculate the best moves since there isnt a bot for your game. Why nobody plays chess 960? Pure strategy unlike the limitations of classical chess were 70%+ of high lvl games have to be played with memory and little to no thinking, anti cheat and fking fun af. Its obvious why most of you wont play chess 960.. Because the only reason you play chess is to LOOK smart.

Not everyone plays to look smart... say what you want though, I can’t stop you from believing what you want.
On another note: I just don’t like it personally, (probably cause I’m bad at it)

I am not saying that EVERYONE is playing to look smart but if its for the strategy or tactics or the discovery of new moved then whats better than chess 960? So why is it that only a really small amount of people play 960?
+ and there it is.. You know why you are bad at chess 960? because you cant play from memory and then feel smaart.
no you cant the bots suggestions are not the nest moves possible.. send me a game
who is letterman?
it wont show you the BEST moves because even in classical chess the bots dont calculate everything.. People have uploaded books of openings and games in them to improve them. There are no openings for 960 so the bot cannot calculate as well as in classical

agree with original post concerning 960, but some people play just for the joy it brings!
@hoodootthere very few people do

1. I dont care for 960.
2. Im not anywhere good enough that i need to play 960.
3. Openings dont decide my games.
I have a hard enough time playing regular chess. I dont need to play a variant thinking that somehow openings are dictating my games.
Chess 960 is for those who find classic chess too difficult.

I don't think so
Is your answer:
You dont find chess difficult?
Or...
You dont find chess difficult at your level?

like i said. The strength of the bots you see on classic chess is only that high because they have added all the books and opening variations to reduce the time it takes them to play a move. I am a programmer and i have made my own chess bot for uni so i know how they work. Even if you put the positions in the machine the machine will not show you the best possible moves as it cannot calculate all the moves and possible scenarios.
