How good are you based on your skill and rating.
Sort:

The term beginner is a measure of time spent playing, not level of competence. There are plenty of people who have studied and played for a long time who are just bad at the game because of a lack of aptitude, not a lack of effort or time spent playing.
You would never call a bad basketball player who has played all his life a beginner. You would never call a veteran of several battles but can’t shoot straight and is a coward a beginner. You would never call a GM who has lost his mental capacities and now has troubles a beginner.
Labels are unnecessary since your rating says everything you need to know. If you must use a label, just say “lower rated.”
