Am I an aggressive chess player?

Avatar of ThemajesticFalcon

So I am not too sure if my type of play is aggressive or not in chess, and I was really hoping an experienced and more highly rated player than me could tell me if I am an aggresive player or not. And is it bad to not be an aggressive chess player? By the way I am a live standard player, so if someone would be able to look at some of those games to determine my play style that would be greatly appreciated.

You seem like a aggressive chess player since you take a lot of trades.

Trading off pieces is not aggressive, it's passive. 

To the point of being gay.

DUDE your so aggressive!

I seen you play the Caro-Kann in such an aggressive way.

It was radical!

It's like WOW ThemajesticFalcon is aggressive!

It's so obvious even little blind kids can see this.

I simply did not know what qualified to be an aggressive player. In one of my other posts, higher rated players were saying that I was a passive player because I played the scandinavian.

Did I play these games aggresively?

Hard to tell, because your theory knowledge is realy bad, and positions complicates from the very beggining. Ask after few years.

Yes. Well why don't you look in my live standard archive where I play people my level. You took that game from someone I am teaching. And what about those two links that I gave before?

I'm afraid you are thinking in wrong categories.

His level is not that much worse than yours. At least saying "who I am teaching" is really really wrong. As I said you realy need to improve at chess before carrying about your style.

Its better to be a universal player and do it all.

There is no such thing as a playing style in chess. There's just playing well or less well.

You should attack when the position calls for it, you should be patient when the position calls for it.

So, you mean Tal was as positional as capablanca?

So, try to guess which one of the two played this game.

Either Tal or Capablanca was white, let's see if you can recognize a "style".

Taking a lot of trades = fear of tension = cowardly

Hard to see a cowardly player as an aggressive player.

Is this considered aggresive by me:

this is an example of an agressive game. 


I don't have any good examples of non agressive games.
