Puzzle ratings are a bad indicator of strength.

41 -Obrez i'm asking this because i've seen improvement in my own game, when i was ~1500 in puzzles on chess.com, my friends (not online) used to beat me over the board, like suppose, out of 10 matches my score against one of my friends used be like something 3-7 or 2-8 & after 7 months of gap when i rejoined that guy over the board once again, i ended up 4-4, he too was surprised with my improvement, & by then my puzzle rating was +1800, & i'm currently 1797 in puzzles

Avatar of nikk6385

yes, same thing! i'm 1797 in puzzles (overrated) & 1265 in blitz. so you can see the difference clearly, you are 1926 in blitz, & i'm just 1265. it all proves that you are a stronger player because you're 2400+

Free-de-la-hoy2 ok so your answer is 4. hard! ok i agree with you. 👍

Avatar of nikk6385

Epiloque well if you don't mind, would please share us your ratings in fide, in all formats?

Avatar of nikk6385

Epiloque ok, so in your point of view, how hard would you say is a 2000 rated player

in puzzles*

Avatar of nikk6385

Epiloque if possible, say all formats classic, rapid & blitz 😄

I mean anyone can basically compare their puzzle rating to their blitz rating to know that it means poo. Just look at the numbers! There’s actual chess and there’s a chess-like game that isn’t chess. Which one do you think better represents chess skill?

at 2000 puzzle rating I'd estimate to be around 1500 and they'd have absolutely no clue about planning or positional play

Avatar of nikk6385

ok, well i guess is that the 2000 puzzle rated player on chess.com would probably match the strength of a fide player who has the rating between 1100-1200 in classic

I have a rating of 2000 in puzzles but I am "only" 1200 in rapid lol. But does that mean I have a bright future?!

pretty dang good if you ask me

Oh yes, I also reached 2015 today, I don't play games that often, am rated near 1000 these days ig, I've never studied chess, will do probably next year. I just think I play a lot better without the timers and actually play tactically while in timer matches, I just play pretty superficially.

Puzzles are representative of your strength overall. Blitz ratings and lightneing ratings only give a glimpse of how good or how fast and accurate your thought process is in the game from beginning to ending. If you do puzzles on a regular basis your OTB and onlne regular ratings will increase due to pattern recognition. The better your recognition the better your rating will be. If one works on analyzing the board and assessing the board accurately then all will be good in the end.

I have a puzzle rating of 2000+ (didn’t buy premium edition, only solving 3 puzzles each day since April).

Otherwise, I only play 2|1 fast chess. My rating there is only between 950-1050 and I am not really improving since I starting playing chess a couple of months ago.

Not too strong if a patzer like me achieved it. :)
