I think 99% is a bit high. but the rest is strategy, memory and calculation.
chess is 90 percent tactics, because that's who most games' outcomes are decided.

I would say chess is:
10% openings
50% tactics
20% positional knowledge
19% endgames
and 1% luck
I think it is a given that the better memory and calculation skills you have the better you will be at all area's

the way i play its
15% opening
25% tactics
30% position
25% end game
and 5% blind luck and some divine intervention
Why ppl say that chess is 99% tactics so where is the 1%?
