Hi guys, I have a question. I’m 12, trying to improve my blitz percentile. It’s currently 73 percent, is it good for my age?

Avatar of ring-tailed_lemur

Yes. Anything above 50.

To be honest thats much below average. But when did you start playing?

50 percentile means NEW IN CHESS.

600 = New in Chess
1000= Beginner 
1400= Novice
1800= Intermediate 
2200= Advanced 
2400= Expert
2600+ = Masters 

This is all according to Chess.com Blitz rating.

LOL. Clearly you have no idea what percentile means @rishabh11great

I know, but till a rating of 1300 a player is beginner, and 80 percentile is achieved around that rating so 80 should be an avreage percentile.

I dont think the percentile thing is that accurate because My blitz percentile is in the top 9.5 persent while my blitz is 1505. Now, another 10 percent players to beat!

i mean i am in the 99.7% percentile for Blitz an let me tell you, I still have soooooo much to learn. I am learning so much more every day because i focus on endgame tactics and positions,

Comeon if you call 50% an average then..... WHAT DO I SAY ? Most of the people on this site are beginners, when you compete on OTB, 73% of online chess is very less. And what I see is the rating not percentile.
