if you wanted to have a good chance at world champion, you should check out Faustino Oro, who is is 2423 and an International Master and is currently 12 years old.

You literally asked if you could become world champion

Botvinnik didn't even play chess when he was 12 years old. He learned the rules a few months later.

So the correct answer is "not impossible, but it's astronomically unlikely."

Also, if Asan-5 was serious about chess, he'd be studying and playing chess instead of casually chatting on the forums. That alone changes the answer to "no".

long time ago..in romantic era of chess

Of course! At this rate, in about 5 years, you'll be ready to challenge Carlsen during his spiritual retreat in Norway.

You just need to gain around 1400 Elo points, defeat the best players in the world, and, of course, stop hanging your queen in one move.

But don’t worry, champ! With 10 hours of tactics a day, 5 liters of coffee and watching AlphaZero games while you sleep, you’ll surely make it. See you at the Candidates 2030!
