1300 players need to focus on openings!
Sort:
~1300 can memorize first few moves of opening, but the problem is he does not understand anything as shown on game before. (Bb4+??)
He could have win some games thanks to his opening memorization, but that will lead him nowhere if first he dont study tactics and improve himself to at least 1500-1600.
Hello dear chess.com people!
There are thousands of discussions about what the best training methods for lower rated players are. For example there is the pro studying openings side and the contra studying openings side. I am obviously a huge supporter of the pro side and with the following game I will show you how my 1300 rated opponent only lost the game because of his opening, all other parts of his gameplay were really strong but at that point it was already too late and the game over. Here the proof to end this endless discussion.
Game was correspondence time play, means slow chess.
