Will Playing Tactically When my Style is Positional Improve my Chess Skill?

For me i just play the game and see what happens :-)

I don't know

I am too bad

^^^^^^

i am low rated, but... to me you have to play both of course. positional play tends to prepare your game in long term, and as soon as you see some tactical trick coming (thanks to your positional play you did before), you do it. And why do people like you in chess.com do ask if 1500 is beginer. you obviously know you re not (and above all, you state you re a positional player, which by definition is advanced kind of play to me, or at least not less than intermediate). i would like to have your rating.

I'm also a positional player, rated around 1800.   Playing tactical games may help your overall game a bit, but I would do puzzles instead, to preserve my rating.   Doing the daily Tactics Trainers and Puzzle Rushes have improved my tactics quite a bit.   I prefer to avoid 1. e4 e5 games and blitz games though.   I play 1.d4 as white (mostly positional games), the Sicilian as black against 1. e4 (usually a mixture of positional and tactical) and the Queen's Indian or Semi-Slav against 1. d4 (mostly positional).   I also prefer daily games, as it gives me time to work out the tactics and calculations, without the time pressure.   

Of course working on your weakest areas will make you improve. It doesn't mean you have to become tactical (whatever that means) but you could definitely try some different types of positions for a while, and study attacking games too. Don't just play and expect to magically start understanding how to play well on your own 

Exactly! It’s no use to think about positional or tactical. Just try to make best moves.

Thanks, great advice!

Play what you enjoy. If you really enjoy playing solidly and wait for opponents blunder or outplay them in the endgame, play the same way. If you feel bored with your present approach, experiment! Play other openings. Take risk in the middle game. 

What do you mean? Everybody really has a style and something they feel comfortable in, even if masters can play it with more accuracy.

Every one have a style or personality. Some are aggressive, some defensive. Some takes risks. Others play solidly and wait for opponents blunder.

I believe it was our own esteemed Chess.com personality and IM Danny Rensch who declared that folks under 2000 rating don't have styles, just weaknesses they're trying to avoid.

Style is the choice you make when you see you have two viable options.

Beginners don't have style, they have weaknesses and strengths. They play whatever they want no matter what the position calls for, or what options exist. That's not style that's being a weak player.

"Style? I have no style."

- Former World Chess Champion Anatoly Karpov.

At 1500 the only "style" a chess player has is blundering, and mistake prone.

The 3 most misunderstood, not understood, misused chess phrases low rated/beginners love to use:

1. "What is my style?"

2. "I am an aggressive/tactical player."

3. "I know the <insert opening here> 20 moves deep."

+!

It will improve your blitz play and your tactical skills, but I think it will be neutral at best for your play at longer time controls. I would recommend just playing your normal positional style and doing some tactics problems to supplement. That way you will hopefully see more tactical opportunities in your games without trying to force tactics into your play.

Haha! That's very true. I probably have better positional understanding than most players of comparable rating, but I am nonetheless far too weak to be "a positional player".
