1000 rapid

Why is there such an amazing difference in the skill of play, even just above 1000 on rapides? I have a little over 900, and 1064 are already playing space chess for me. I don't think I have a chance to ever exceed this magic level.

That noncense. You just aren't quite versed at the same tactics, hence you not spotting them. I used to fear 1000's, then when I played in that ballpark I realised were all vulnerable. I bounced down again but fully confid not I'll break into the 1100 plus next wave

Just broke 1000 the other day. I thought it'd be impossible too and I dreaded playing 4 digits rating players. But you will get there if you keep playing!!! Just realize once you get there 1100 players would seem like magnus carlsens too LOL

I don't understand why make new accounts? You haven't played that many games on this account at least. So it doesn't matter how long you've been playing if you take frequent breaks.

I deleted my previous account when I had a proper self destructing hissy fit, it happens 😬🤣

1500 rapid is easy: it is a matter of mental discipline.

Always check your intended move is no blunder before you play it

Easy for some people for sure but not for everyone. You make very constructive feedbacks but I see you blunder with blanket statements like that a lot too.

"Easy for some people for sure but not for everyone." ++ Everyone can blunder check.

"You make very constructive feedbacks" ++ I try.

"blanket statements" ++ It is a deep truth. People go through all kinds of effort and then blunder a piece. As long as you blunder pieces and pawns, all study is in vain.

I have a friend who is +1500 at 15+10 but she has a hard time to stay at 1250 at blitz....for me 10 min is blitz because you have to rush your move....

Try to play mostly 15+10 or 30 min game.....

I’ve not noticed such a marked difference, but am sure ALL beginners ( 900, 1000, 1100… ) are much stronger here than elsewhere. On another, well known server my rating rapid is 1500-1600; here I struggled to exceed 1000. I don’t know in the higher ranges, but at low levels opponents are much more challanging here, and I like this. Therefore, keep vewing it a challange and you will surely succeed. 

And when you have passed 1000, you will no longer consider it a magic level, I ensure you…
