be better at chess

Ok

Studying openings is over-rated.

Not entirely a waste of time, but a poor use of your time.

Study Endgames, Tactics and Mating Patterns instead. Look over your lost games and figure out WHY you lost each one. Objective self-criticism is the foundation of improvement.

Bro I mean study the opening fully first before playing it

Again, a silly idea.

Man not silly

thx for the tips

Your welcome

Yes it IS silly.

Let's try an analogy. Suppose I had hundreds of things that I wanted to store in a closet... but I also wanted to be able to FIND it all afterwards. How should I do it? Should I just open the closet door and start throwing stuff in, into a pile on the floor of the closet?

How would I LOCATE any particular item afterwards? It's all just dumped in a confused mess!

The proper way to do it would be to FIRST outfit my closet with a stack of shelves for holding items in an organized manner, and a few rows of hooks on the inside of the door for hanging important items that I know I will need to find later. THEN start loading stuff into the closet.

Your memory works the same way. Do you honestly believe that the way to learn an opening is to just shovel moves and variations into your memory, with nothing to attach them to and no way to keep them organized? How do you expect to REMEMBER all that crap? How do you FIND anything?

The proper way to learn a variation is to PLAY it. And LOSE. And then figure out WHY you lost. And then play it a slightly different way, avoiding the eatlier mistake. And lose again, a different way. And again analyze your loss. Objective self-criticism (not Youtube!) is the foundation of self-improvement at chess.

At THAT point you can begin studying moves and variations. Because at THAT point, you will have some "shelves and hooks" in your "memory closet", all ready to hold the information... because you have played the line and lost with it. You will REMEMBER your losses.

Yo just shut up

I only said if you want to play a opening just study it

Like Italian game

It's good opening

I mean if you see a opening just don't right away play it just know how to play that opening before playing it if you don't there will be chess rage moment.chese rage moment means rage moment after losing a game

Wow

?

Agree with blueemu. The best method is to study a little, play a little, repeat. Then studying and playing feed on each other.

Bro he doesn't say like that

The OP just tried to reproduce the opening principles everybody knows about. Only he forgot the most important one. Plus he added a new one (number 4) that's complete nonsense. "Study opening fully" - what does that even mean?
