Today, I want to discuss a few different ways you can farm chess players elo online. Every once in a while, you'll find a perfect enemy against somebody who wants to play multiple chess games continually. And I don't know you, but when I would play multiple matches with a random person online, I would start losing so many games and recognize myself slipping and not playing the best moves. So, I had to figure out techniques to combat my human side when playing chess. Especially, facing off against stronger opponents that aren’t willingly trying to give you more points. 

Hello! This is H1 and we’re going to be running it back with another episode talking about chess knowledge, chess wisdom, and chess understanding again.

First, when you challenge a random person multiple times in chess online, you get used to each other's openings automatically. Unless you challenge somebody who doesn't know chess altogether, they're going to improve every single time you face them in the same opening. More times than not, these are called opening battles. Titled players go through days when they face the same Challenger in different tournaments repeated times.

There are a couple of options in this case. You can either switch up the opening every single game or stay in that same opening in every game played. Now, it does depend primarily on what type of player you are and your opponent. Simply put, if you're going to face somebody in the same opening every single time, then you should be knowledgeable about your opening. What do I mean by knowledgeable in your opening? I mean you should know the main line and the numerous other sidelines to throw your opponent off. While repeatedly playing the same person, they're going to catch on to the gameplay. ESPECIALLY, IF THEY’RE A TOUGH OPPONENT. If they don't perform better, then keep on playing the same opening. It's still their rating points on the line. The spotlight is for them to improve, not for you to downgrade

If they do eventually catch on, switch up the opening a little bit. You can either change the opening completely and yes, you will be admitting defeat in the played variation from your favorite opening, or you can play a sideline that is similar to your favorite opening but with a few technical differences. 

The approach of using a different variation in your favorite opening is the one I usually pick because it trains you to play different lines in the opening that should fit your chess personality. I have seen multiple times when somebody starts using a whole different opening that they're not comfortable with and then loses miserably. Most likely dumbfounded about what to do next after losing.

Of course, Magnus Carlsen was proficient at all different types of openings and could use this method quite well. Multiple people are well-trained in all types of chess openings. But from my years of experience in chess, I'm pretty sure that's nowhere near the majority of players who play the game. One thing you have to recognize is that e4 players are completely different from d4 players. They live on two separate islands and they should never touch. They should fly over to each other's islands once a year but for vacation purposes only. Beginners make this mistake all the time, thinking the opening doesn't matter. So, they use whatever they want. But I like the building method of your openings. The building method suggests learning one opening at a time and expanding on variations of that one opening. So, if you're an e4 player, you should learn all the things about e4 before you ever switch. 

Try every opening out to see what you favor the most. So, before you start farming elo, you need to know your opening strategy. 

The next idea is your tactics need to be at peak performance. Once your tactics are failing, that's when the game starts going completely wrong. The game is going to get monotonous enough that your brain is going to tire out. So, it is important to do tactics regularly to nullify the effects of tiring out. Once you notice your tactics are getting a little bit inaccurate, which will become prevalent once you have a few close calls, the close-call game will be a big RED FLAG. Either risk it for the biscuit and keep on going till you eventually lose or play a solid chess opening. Give your brain a break from finding tactics for a couple of games then get back to the regular opening.

The third and final tip that is of utmost importance when farming a chess rating is knowing if your opponent is frustrated or not. For example, if you're playing a fast chess match and your opponent blunders a queen within the first 10 moves, there's a high probability they’ll continue to make constant mistakes. They probably played somebody before you who has them in a “tilted phase.” I realize this isn’t the kindest thing to do but, if you want free points, rematch them. If they accept, look out for blunders in each game because they’ll come. This tilted phase of your opponent won't last forever but for the time being, those are free rating points you can take immediately. That's all the tips that I have for farming rating points online. 

Keep on fighting til the end, staying focused in chess, and real life too! PEACE
