Advices for a new player

.

Hey buddy do you want some real improvement? 

Play as much as possible. I don't mind training you up a bit if you like. But my methods are play and have fun

Sure: search function of this forum. Tons of threads with bad, mediocre and sometimes absolutely wonderful advice!

Best advice “have fun”

Here are some things that really helped me when I first started chess:

-Watch GothamChess on YouTube. Their video, How To Play Chess: The Ultimate Beginner Guide really helped me when I first started.

-Have a solid opening. When I first started playing chess, I didn't know anything about openings and I made things up which always resulted in me losing. It is really important to learn an opening and here are some openings you can play. (Lol I'm a Gotham fan)

-Do chess puzzles, there are many chess puzzles on chess.om and I find it really helpful for me because there are many checkmate patterns. It helped me a lot with spoting checkmates.

-Learn endgame checkmate patterns. It is really important to know how to checkmate. When I first started, I remember that I would go for a draw because I couldn't checkmate and I didn't know how.

-Take breaks when needed. Sometimes I would play too much and I would go crazy. I would get tired of chess and I would lose every round due to playing too much and overloading. Take breaks and don't play way too much.

There are a lot of beginner things you should know but I am not able to list them all. Hope you enyoy playing chess and maybe even become a Grand Master one day. Good luck on your chess journey!!! 

Also don’t cheat…. Ur games are starting to look sus for just starting chess ngl. Might be an alt pretending to be new or something worse?

Be a good sport

Good luck 

do you have a hotkey that auto-pastes this into your message or something lmao 

Hi, i don't know why you are saying that, i started playing chess 6 months ago in my birthday, when i bought a chess set, i've been reading a chess book that i have at home the name is "chess fundamentals" is from my cousin

I asked advices because this is my first time playing online, i have a phone now so im playing from the app

I only wanted to know what are the steps to improve, because i already read the book like 20 times and im bored, and my local book shop doesnt sell chess books and i dont know the names of them

And i dont want to play a lot online because they are always blundering mate or entire pieces or a lot of pawns is boring. I would prefer to play with my sister now

Have a nice day

I assume OP made a new account, and got to where he is with the rating deviation. He made his account a few days ago, so nothing looks suspicious to me because it’s probably the RD at work.

New to online? Oh I thought u meant new new. I said it cuz a new player doesn’t checkmate in the middle game vs a 900 nor do they win 100% of their games with an avg of 88% acc. New players are lucky to get 50% acc and end the game with 3 queens vs king 😂 

Oh no no i've been playing since december

@Gabberl Thank you. Absolutely. Be a good sport. It's that simple.

Thank you, it’s something that everyone should do

I think you are right, it happens a lot to me. I sometimes get stressed about my rating and how it would not go up. I sometimes worry about it so much that I wouldn’t play because I would worry it would go down. Just have fun, that is what matters.
