40 isn't that hard

i'd suggest taking a couple seconds on the easier puzzles (first 20), then once you feel them get harder, go more slowly, taking your time to calculate variations and count material/look for mates, etc

i got a 28 today because i misclicked and then blundered my rook instead of moving it the other way to checkmate in one and then i missed a free queen because i went too fast lol

guess i'll grind to 60 on my alt then

imagine not having unlimited puzzle rush L

I don't think we're talking about the same time control

40 survival is easy

40 5 min requires a very good day (for me, I'm 1000 rated lol)

40 3 min is not doable for me yet (36 best)

yeah exactly

some people are bringing in survival in a 5 min rush discussion

I haven't played survival but 40 in survival feels pretty easy because my personal best is 39 in 5 min

Avatar of MegaThief

why is it always that I mess up on the last puzzle when I am on 39, when I only have like 5 seconds to get it right at that point i might just guess
but yes we are talking about 5 min here.

Avatar of lazurite003

if you're that close, you're bound to hit 40 one day

Avatar of Chessisfunforme

Avatar of fire-spirit8833

Avatar of TrompeterImEther

I got 50 in 3 (phone and laptop)

55 in 5 and

62 in survival, but that was way to fast, I guess I can go to 70+
