Membership(Diamond)

I am going to buy the diamond membership next month,So can anYoNE send some reviews about it.Thank you.

Lessons available here helps alot...

I have a platinum membership definitely worth it

I have platinum it's worth to purchase. Diamond is worth to purchase.

I have diamond.  I recommend it if you are willing to do a LOT of tactics (since you have unlimited) , You are willing to watch a LOT of videos, well there is a LOT of options with diamond so I recommend it.  If you are willing to do all the "LOT" thing I mentioned above. Or get gold or platinum. p.s.  I mentioned LOT a LOT of times.  Count how many "lot"'s I have mentioned

Membership doesnt matters....its matters How u use it....

I've been a diamond member and it's great for the videos/tactics training problems and computer analysis of games. I enjoyed it.

I just bought it two days ago, and watched only two videos taught by an English GM simon, to be honest, it's worth buying such a membership, the lessons are really nice.

One of the many cool things that you can do with the ChessMentor is play against the computer at the ending position of any of the 4,000 lessons.  Just in V3 of course...

Oh and rack up a few thousand tactics so you can then go review the ones you've missed.  Did I just really advise you to quickly make a whole bunch of mistakes so you can learn to correct them?    The idea of course is to find patterns and tactical motifs you're weak on and then work on them.

Have fun!

You can do unlimited tactics even with platinum.

Yup

Bravo! I am sailing in the same boat. These reviews surely help! But I think my main reason of buying membership is Video lessons and mentor courses. Dontlike the tactics trainer here. Probably prefer CT Art for that.

Your money is better spent at ICC.

I tried it, but it is unnecessary. All of the premium features like videos and tactics RARLY are useful for the developing chess player. All of the premium studying features are passive learning (other than the lessons, but I will explain that in a minute.) Passive learning scientifically only gives you about 10% of the new info that you learn. Everything else is slowly going to fade away to nothing as you forget it. The lessons are active, but don't orient on concrete results or chess players specific needs. For example, basic info, anti-blunder, etc. What I can recommend is Igor Smirnov's free and premium courses and all questions will be answered. I recommend starting on YouTube and looking for How to eliminate blunders. Good luck.

I think tactics are useful, but of course tactics aren't everything in chess.

I am Diamond for almost 3 years now. There is so much material that you need at least 10 lives to see it all and work through it, if you are so inclined. And there is material for all levels and definitely very much stuff for beginners and lower rated players too. I think the like $8 per month are ridiculously cheap and definitely worth to spend if you are at least a little bit interested in study and improving.

Thank you for the reviews.I am gonna buy a diamond membership next month.

     With a diamond membership you also get dates with hot girls.  It's in the fine print!
