How far can you go without "studying" ?

You shouldn't spell chess with three "S"s because it's disrespectful to the inventors of chess

Oh, is that so. Please remind me, who exactly are the inventors of English?

Wow, brilliant mate.

I have 1825 FIDE classical Elo, but i only played 20 classical games. I need to play more classical games because i can be overrated or underrated.

But yes, you are right, chess.com elo isn't good for predicting your actual chess skills.

But i am just watching GothamChess recaps : D

Still studying. Pretty much it is the same as study of master games, even if it is less serious and there is more annoying shouting, clickbaits and other ”funny” stuff aimed at kids/youth, it is still studying.

It's fake studying

It's more like learning somthing like an opening and try to mimic it studying is more like trying to review the games on your own and looking at all the tiny details 

I think as far as super grandmaster. Playing games could be considered ‘studying’ and even more considered ‘studying’ if you actually use game review or just go over them yourself.

No such people error.

Just like any other language, English grew over time. It wasnt invented.

P.s.: Dammit I missed this was part of a joke train.

i think sky is the limit, how far somebody can go, but intentions to improve is that what makes a difference,

and how much time of your life you want to invest to adjust your brain to chess,

to recognise visual patterns..

yeah when game became sport then as in any sport, sacrifice is needed...

most don't want to do it hard,so for most it is still game ,not a sport.

So in the end we choose how far we will go...

Support, coach etc as in any sport give that extra push forward,to top.

But better to ask that question to top 10 players,and then see what is overlap in answers...

with quite some talent, 1800 is not rare, 2000 is reaching the upper limits of chess redneck.

And how far is the sky? People have been to the Moon. Is that further or closer than the sky?

How about Mars? Proxima Centauri? Andromeda Galaxy? Closer, further? How far is the sky?

Let’s just say that what you are saying is a little bit more than a whole lot simplified. Just google it or go to the library and read about it.

Also if you take a look at old written English, do you notice you are actually disrespecting it yourself with your wrong spelling of nearly every word? They used to spell (and speak) it very different a long time ago.

See, language evolves with time, and so does spelling, and this makes your original argument very much meaningless.

I don’t know, you seem like a natural talent.

You do understand that the English language, its inventors (which is a rather abstract concept) and the English people of today are three very different things? You probably don’t, but just think about it lad.

Do you mean the people that came from Germany, or from the Neatherlands or perhaps the Vikings?

It is not nearly as simple as you think.

However I am absolutely sure that the inventors of the English language are not the people who live in England today for they would need to be hundreds of years old.

Maybe even millenia

If analysing with the computer is not part of studying, then I suppose all the way. That’s if you had endless time. But studying makes you learn faster because you don’t have to discover everything by yourself like alphazero.

Say what about Finnish?

I have no idea who invented the Finnish language, but I am sure it was before a nation called Finland existed and it was also before Finnish was spelled in any way whatsoever since it was first only spoken and only written later, like pretty much every language.

Obviously Finland did not invent Finnish. The Finnish language existed before Finland existed.

Also languages are developed by people, not nations, so most definitely England did not invent English any more than Finland invented Finnish.

This is basic stuff.

Most of the people ik that actually improve start studying at 1000+
