How to get a brilliant move?

Well, I know what are brilliant moves, they are really really excellent moves. But I never seem to get one even when I try my best. It shows "Best move" or sometimes "Mistakes". Well, aren't brilliant moves the best move? Do any of you play at least one brilliant move every game?

I know they're hard to get. But mustn't a player play at least 1 brilliant move per month? Or do really good players like Fischer Play it?

they're really rare, its better than what the computer would calculate

well the computer could calculate but its hard

not per month, u have to find a good move or if u spam play games some random moves will be brilliant due to stockfishes weakness

Yeah, they are rare. I've played literally thousands of chess.com games and I've only gotten a brilliant move maybe 10 times before and half of those I still lost the game because I didn't follow up with the "brilliancy" correctly. grin.png

I did get one cool "Brilliant" move about a week ago though happy.png

from my experience, brilliant moves are sacrifices or like counterattacks. they can also be random moves that for some reason are considered "brilliant". i dont have alot of experience of brilliant moves tho, since i have only made 2 brilliant moves.

You need to sacrifice something and that sacrifice must be your best move. I sacrificed two pieces to force a draw.

its not forced sacrifice for brilliant it can be a counterattack that wins more material then the 1st attack

The draw is “forced” because the alternative is inevitable loss.

You get them by performing a really disgusting warped move that shutters their dreams

Maybe you could clarify what you meant.
