In my start of chess, i thought i was on top of the leader board.But turns out am a dumb bozo, firstly what i done is YOOOOUTUBE.(btw i have no access to it cause im living in China ((although it says am South African ,i left and don't offend me if you are a American or else))) Right....i learned parts of the game and openings first..soon after that, tactics and strategies.Then when my games starts a endgame, am crazy(be surprised or not, i beat the Li bot) One of my best tips is play more games, i was stuck against Emir bot but soon after to now i destroy every beginner and intermediate bot and the Antonio bot also Li bot. Am surprised on how am improving.Maybe play more games should help for who are reading this but don't say im lying if you look at my profile, i haven't played a game yet.Bye ;)

Don't judge my rating actually for the part of "lying"

Everyone starts somewhere; thanks for sharing a little of how you got into chess. happy.png

I don't recommend playing the bots much for improvement though. This is because computers play differently than human players, so it is better to practice against other human players. The computer (at the lower ratings) doesn't always play consistent in its planning. However, a human player will usually try to follow through with their plan even if it isn't best. You can still play the chess.com bots for fun, but I wouldn't advise playing them a lot; plus some bots are a bit inflated ratings to human players, so there is that too.

I never made a chess.com Blog Post or YouTube video on how I started out with chess and "how I built up" but I have considered sharing this story one day. In the meantime, this chess.com Blog Post I wrote is the closest I've got. It shares the backstory to my chess.com username and profile picture: https://www.chess.com/blog/KeSetoKaiba/kesetokaiba-username-meaning
