Low elo players in blitz play strength is many times their elo ratings. Opinion.

There seems to be a very odd thing I notice. I thought 500 to 900 elo is a beginner rank in chess, but people on here are playing much, much better than their rank, sometimes playing at twice their rank in terms of strength. I have played otb enough to gauge this imo. I also notice lower rapid rating then blitz rating and I see people with 4,000 games played, but a 550 elo, when you play them though the skill is around 1200 to 1400. Just seems very odd..? Maybe its normal here?

I disagree, i think low elo players on this site sucks at blitz

Says the expert level 2400 elo player who would be among the top 3 percent in the world statistically... Ok..

thats true lol.. 200 - 300 blitz but plays like a 1000 wtf

"Plays like a 1000" - based on what? Chess.com's dumb rating estimate?

If you really believe that nonsense, I have a nice bridge for sale, just for you.

No they do not play few times their strength statistically. They do make a lot of mistakes which you just don't notice. If they are true much stronger than their rating, then they will be at that rating, that's how elo math works. If they aren't, then in most of cases you need to question your evaluation of their playing strength, not their rating.
