Pls gimme some tips on how to improve at classical chess (from 2000 to 2200 USCF)

yeah id like some tips too i just lost 33 points and my coach told me to learn "professional openings" because I'm "losing the advantage with white" and "losing with black"

well if I’m “losing the advantage with white” i wouldn’t have beaten an IM otb with the scotch four knights

and I played the stonewall as black against an FM and drew. honestly I think it’s more important to not blunder

yeah i was better vs an im too (my score is 1 win 2 losses vs the im) but my main problem is that my openings are subpar and i have to defend and outplay people a lot more than necessary, which is probably a terrible approach to playing against lower rated people
I agree that it's important to not blunder, it takes precedent over openings
I think ur doing great rn lmao
nah I’m untilted but I’m still untitled
