Greetings, fellow Deathmate Militia teammates!  I have a great success story to share with you.  Darth_Sylar, our fellow teammate, just achieved a 2000 level rating!  

Is this possible for you and I to do?  Well, simply put, Darth_Sylar began playing chess only 6 months ago.  I played against him when his rating was below 900!  But Darth_Sylar was resilient.  I've observed and noted 3 critical keys to his success; He intentionally challenged higher skilled players, became a student of tactics training and befriended 2000 rated players such as SukerPuncher333 and Gonzalo33.  And now, after numerous games of learning, he's beaten both of these players.  

Well done, Darth_Sylar!  You are a powerful leader in Deathmate Militia!

P.S.  Darth_Sylar is willing and eager to share his personal tips with you.  Peace.
