Here’s some quick advice that helped me. Take a break if needed, don’t focus on openings, focus on endgames/strategies.

#2 ok, if you’re only 50 elo above him I wouldn’t give advice

Just play games, do puzzles and blunder check every move bc at that elo hanging less that 10 points of material wins you the game

focus on ur middle game usually thats where most beginners tend to mess up and make blunders so u can take advantage of that

I literally just responded to a similar forum post a little while ago, so I'll just share here what I said there:

It depends what you are struggling with specifically, but I'd say the biggest help to crossing the 1000 barrier is:

- studying basic checkmate patterns and theoretical endgames (my YouTube channel has videos on several endgames)

- Following "opening principles" https://www.chess.com/blog/KeSetoKaiba/opening-principles-again

- When solving puzzles, try to understand the main themes and elements of the position, rather than just guessing through the moves. See if you can visualize/calculate the entire solution before playing the first move if possible.

Hi,

I seem to be stuck on 400 despite beating bots up to 1100 . Does beating a bot change your rating or do you have to play against humans for your rating to change? Thanks.

You have to play against humans. Also bot rating is very inflated I can beat a 1700 rated bot but I’m only 1000 rating.
