Are you trying to get your blitz above 200? Because your rapid rating is fine.

If I could only give a couple pieces of advice, stop hanging your queen, and stop resigning from games.

It’s not only about opening it’s also thinking fast and tactics and strategies

Bro no offense but if you were to blunder once every 20 games you would be 2000 not 200.

That is very good advice. Here is a game where the OP resigned when he was up a rook and a piece.

@magipi. How do you get the games you played against computer ai's in your recent games played.. I recently played and beat a bot but was unable to go back and review the game.

I think if you analyze it with the engine, it gets saved.

Openings are never a beginner's problem. No one begins with board vision. It must be developed. Until you do so, you will drop pieces every game. Also you will fail to pick up those your opponents drop. These are the reasons you lose.
Try Bruce Pandolfini, Beginning Chess. These simple 300 problems will do more to develop your board vision than a week spent watching videos.
about that game where i was up a rook guests came so i had to resign
but i get the point

Because knowing opening theory at the beginning is almost useless.
just stick to one or two openings for both colors, from there on only study middle game, tactics and endgame, do a lot of puzzles to imrove your pattern recognition

Hi! You need to improve little by little all your chess skills, not only openings, to get better results. If you are interested in how to improve, I suggest you read my post: https://www.chess.com/blog/maafernan/chess-skills-development
Good luck!
I know a lot of good theory openings but I can;t seem two get above 200 btw i am often a slow player and blunder once in like 20 games
