I always study Chess960 players with a rank of 2200+. And some Chess 960 boards are tougher than others. Same can be said about them being easy also.

where do you study 2200+ games?... do you go and find really good players on the site and look at their games or something or do mean on youtube etc?...
@RickRenegade: To get better at 960, I think the first step is to analyze one's own games. For myself, I have analyzed each of my 960 games, with very special attention to the opening 12 moves. So if you care to submit one of your own games to this forum, I would try to do my best job of analyzing it with you...
Here is a 960 game I played this week
I did a bad beginning but I think the end is interesting because I took advantage of my position with a big material loss

Here is a pgn database of almost or in fact every high quality Chess960 game that has been played since 2001 starting with Leko-Adams. Over a thousand.

I'd like to analise peoples' games with them to get better at 960, because I feel when I play I'm all over the place and forget basic strategy. (Yes any progress that I've made in chess has greatly relied on knowledge of openings, played in blitz where it has a greater impact). I am a bad 'real' chess player - guilty.
