I would like to take down a 2200 one day. Even if by accident

For now I'm trying to learn the 1700 game

Help! Help! Help me play vs 2000. Positional, Tactical, gambit, I don't care. Everything's wrong.

2000s have it all. They play positionally to set up tactics that knock you senseless. They are unbeatable (unless you're 2100).

They crush me like I were <1000.

Those 2000's play chess like eating sandwiches.

I tend to be more of a tactical player. And yes, I've taken down 2200s in my day. Cool

Nice. A true accomplishment. Take down a 2200

I've only beaten 1 or 2 2200+ players in tournaments, but I have won blitz games against players up to 2400. My goal is to beat a grandmaster in blitz, one day. Cool

You are only 100 points off

Try to be universal. If you aim for just one aspect of the game, it will be too easy for the opponent to choose a scenario where your strong side will be useless.

I accepted a draw as black in this position. Did black have a reasonable chance to win?
