Why is everyone low rated so ridiculously good?

Did Kramnik make everyone a finagle detection expert?

Did they play the Queen's Gambit on you? These openings require a well-timed dxc4. Play the ChessMaster and you will realize it's not easy. I beated my National Master chess coach (NM) using a symmetrical English opening, and I won with a Queenside expansion, he had central play.

I also won on time. (I was Black, he was White). Over-the-board with kids spectating! Ouch, considering the 2002 Junior Orange Bowl Chess Scholastic Championship in Florida, and the 2003 World Open in Philadelphia.

200s and 2000s on this site are practically the same thing. ratings are rigged.

You mean cause you cheat

the only cheater here is you. I've looked at the accuracy at some of your games and you literally play like an engine.

Actually accuracy doesn't matter at all but whatever 🤷 you can think what you want to think but a 99% win rate.... Nah

Either that or your procrastinating on gaining elo and would be like a 2600 ishs Smurf 🤷 a 2400 and having no 95+ percent games is kinda sus (either because of a draw or your opponent Gave you a free piece earlier )

Trying to blatantly lie by saying accuracy doesn't matter at all after getting caught?

Accuracy is how close your moves match the engine buddy.

I knew something was up after you kept accusing me nonstop.

I kept choosing intermediate and getting killed the first ten games. I finally accepted that I’m a beginner and now it’s fun again 🤩

I feel like my blitz waiting is much lowers than my ability. But I lose on time constantly. I just struggle with making decisions in a time crunch.

Are you referring to me?

I'm well aware the high-rated player you are talking about knows far more about chess than I do.

I just think because he knows so much about chess, he was assuming after looking at the first move on a analysis the OP lost the game because of the opening; because he's so good at chess that at his level that's what wins games.

I know from being bad at chess that the most likely reason was a blunder, so I looked in the analysis and found it. I suspect if he looked as well, he would agree with me, I just don't think he looked.

Do you agree with me?

Was the reason he lost the game predominantly the fact he had a bad opening, the fact he hung his rook, or because his opponent cheated?

I'm saying it's because he hung his rook. As a high-rated player, tell me: am I right?

"I just think because he knows so much about chess, he was assuming after looking at the first move on a analysis the OP lost the game because of the opening; because he's so good at chess that at his level that's what wins games." im not 2200 but i dont think openings win games at that level

Would you expect to get better at basketball just by watching White men can't jump? Probably not, but it's still a great movie and it's worth watching. And The Queen's Gambit is a great TV show as well.
