Would hanging your queen be attacking or defending?

I play passive but solid and hope they make a mistake so I can counter attack. Strong players crush me 😔

Yea

I thought that everyone prefer to attack.

Like in the boxing match.

Attacking.

It makes me feel as though I am in control of how the game plays out.

That would  be foolishness.

This is a stupid question. A better question would be, "are you more aggressive or solid".

Wow. The first time I hear the such confession... really.

You choose to play passively. And you do it not because you are forced to... but consciously.

Solid doesn't mean passive

My average rating is 1000, so for you, this might be a stupid question, and im fine with that

Depends on what middlegame positions i get.

Depends on my mood. If I’m in a great mood then I love to defend and cackle at futile attacking attempts

Today, I was in a great mood.

LoL it works for me. 🤗

I can't change my style.

Bumvinnik

Instead of the best moves I play solid playable moves that look passive.

Bumvinnik

Especially in the opening. After that I can become aggressive.

sndeww

My style is decided in the opening. I either go ham on my opponent like Eric Hansen or I just play wack moves

IMKeto

I think the same thing applies to chess.

"The best fighter is not a Boxer, Karate or Judo man. The best fighter is someone who can adapt on any style. He kicks too good for a Boxer, throws too good for a Karate man, and punches too good for a Judo man."
