Accuracy of Bot Ratings

Sort:

I can beat bots that have ratings that are sometimes more than 500 points higher than mine, but lose to human opponents with lower ratings than me. Any thoughts on this? Are the bot ratings accurate?

No I think the bot ratings are higher than labeled, since they are programed to play a certain style and most likely play the same moves in certain positions. This is how I beat advanced bots. I play over and over and see what they do in a position then counter it next game. The 1500s are most like 1800-1900. And they are still slowed from the 3200 stockfish type bot. Playing humans, they will mix up their styles and do more to confuse you, still more psychological impact, and not to a random move that is total garbage just because they are slowed AI but because they overlooked something or tricked out. Thats why the bots are easy to beat but they can be good opening practice for the higher level ones.

@SayYourPrayers1: Well done beating the Hikaru bot. That one beats me every time.

I beat the holly bot from christmas, so the computer ratings are probably inaccurate.

Yes, the ratings are inaccurate for example I've beaten hikaru, Danny, Danya, and more 2000+ bots just by studying their tactics and weaknesses in their play. Easy least for me but idk about you guys am I just really strong or are the bots just dumb?

No, bots are totally weird. In a game against a bot, a 1000-rated bot gifted me the queen and a rook for totally no compensation.

No, bot ratings are extremely inaccurate. I am able to beat a 1500 bot even though I am only 940. The lower rated bots seem to deliberately blunder away pieces. I would say that the bot ratings are not accurate.

I think lower rated bot are weak and higher rated bots are strong.

Well, the thing is, no matter how many times you play a bot and win, it doesn't change you're rating. It only changes your rating if you play against other people. I beat the 1100, and 1200 bots multiple times, but my rating is only 800. But I only played against other people like twice. I'm sure the rating for bots isn't extremely accurate, but I think it's accurate enough. Just a prediction from what I know, don't know if I'm right.

Does your BOT rating change? My BOT rating is 1200, and my rapid is 627. My bot rating was 1200 before my first game, then I played many more, and its still 1200. (bot rating)
