Stumbling with Openings

So way back when I used to have a very rote repetoir.  I used to play as white the Scotch (for whatever reason), the c3 Sicilian, or respond accordingly to something unusual.  As black I'd play some strange Sicilian lines or maybe the Nimzo-indian.  Bottom line was I didn't play much else unless I was really bored.

And it seemed to work to some degree.  I did pretty well in bullet and blitz.  Playing somewhat consistantly around the 1450-1550 level.  But this was years ago.  Recently I've started playing everything and anything.  I've payed a ton of lines across any number of openings.  I now play najdorfs, frenchs, ruy lopezs, the grob (idk why), QG lines, some strange queen-pawn stuff, caro-kann, the English (though I know 0 theory), and much, much more.

Bottom line is I spend much time studying openings, but improvements are few and I've kind of plateaued much below what I used to play for Blitz/bullet.  I can beat people 1500-1650 every now and then, but I can't seem to hold any consistant record against lower rated players.

My tactic trainer rating is super high, so I doubt I'm failing too much from tactical play in the middle game, and endgames seem to be a persnal joy of mine, so where am I going wrong?  I can't seem to figure it out, and I think I really would like to be playing at a higher level.  I suspect my openings might be to blame.

Any pointers?

A number of suggestions:

1) Sounds like all you do is look for tactics.  You need to study concepts in positional play.  Do you know what a "hole" is?  How about a "backwards pawn"?  Could you identify the "Worst placed piece" in a position (I bet not, worst placed could be a piece well into your opponent's camp)?  Do you ever give up a Rook for a Knight or Bishop when not "forced" to do so without there being mate or an immediate way to get the material back?  Do you know WHEN to make such a sacrifice?

2) Minimize blitz to only being played when you have a few minutes to kill.  If you are playing more then 2 or 3 games at a time, you are playing too much blitz.  Time is better spent studying.

3) Do you play over the board in tournaments at all?  Or rated long time control games at a club?  If not, highly suggest you start.

4) When you study, are you using a board and pieces?  Or are you only looking at UTube Videos and PGN Files?  Visualizing on a 3-D board makes a big difference.  Get out the board and pieces, book in hand, and study the old fashion way.  It really works!

For you to actually KNOW an opening you have to play it multiple times to see what happens in different situations with different opponents that has different replies. Thinking about openings for a moment, if you keep playing some opening (lets say the najdorf) and you have good results with it is there a reason to play anything else against e4? Do you even need to look at French or Ruy Lopez as black?

Yeah, I've been doing a fair bit of study, just not often over the board.  I almost never get a chance to play OTB at any reasonable level, everyone I play with isn't the best tbh.  Most of my studying is from books or text or blogs.  I dislike using the pgn because I think it allows you to be a bit lazy.  The books I like to study from I just play out the moves in my head unless I feel like my grasp is starting to slip or the move order is far too long.

I know what a "hole" is, weak squares, weak positions and what not.  Except in some most advanced cases, I can probably point out the worst placed piece.  Maybe my biggest mistake is that none of this study ever seems to transfer over to blitz, and I keep losing regardless of this study.

Also @wrathss, this might also be a problem of mine, maybe why I keep losing is because I don't have experience in that opening.

Absolute moral of the story might just be to stop playing blitz if I was being perfectly honest with myself.

I have this post post time after time on chess.com.  All openings, and tactics, and still cant understand why im not improving? 

You need to study all phases of the game. 

Pick a handful of openings and stick with those. Aside from just knowing the moves you need to understand them and know which squares you should focus on, what your best pawn breaks are and so on. That's hard to do if you keep switching openings. Openings will only get you so far though. In my case, more often than not I can get a good position out of the opening with either color but I struggle finding a plan after that. Middle game plans are one of the most important parts of chess IMO, and the hardest to master.

From the way it sounds like to me your not really doing any openings. Your more or less winging it.

Usually the opening you play will help give you idea's of what you should do in the middle game and in some cases even the endgame.
