No need he's magnus reincarnated his elo is 400 and he already plays stuff fide rated players (like me) learn to play

Thanks but I just do whatever I want to really, I don't know positions or anything else, except how they move but I try to be as logical as possible.

My most recent game:

In this game, you could've captured a rook instead of a bishop. Rooks are worth more than bishops, so keep that in mind for your next game. 13 xf8 would have been better.

Yeah, but I still won the game.

Sure, but just keep that in mind in games against those with higher ELO. If that wasn't Martin, he could've checkmated you later on with just a king and a rook. You can't do that with a bishop and a king. So, congrats on that win, just use that for player vs player games.

True, also look at my other forum which features my most recent game.

Actually, they are both basically the same. AFter xf8 black can take the bishop on f8. Then white trades the bishops and the position is still the same

Thanks I really just do what I think is logical and goes with the flow and I also was told I don't use my time correctly. Here's a example I played a 30 min game and used 10 mins and played 40 moves.

Maybe you both need to decide at what time you will play.

Watch such channels as ChessVibes, Hikaru, probably also Gotham Chess (the most popular Youtube channel btw) on YouTube to improve your chess much faster. They are entertaining and also educational at the same time. By watching them your elo will grow much faster
