Tactics:Game ratio

Sort:
Avatar of ItchyNuts

Hey 

I want to improve, and everybody has told me to do a lot of tactics

But should I spend more time doing tactics than playing games?

If so, at what ratio? 2:1? 10:1?

I just want to know how important tactics is, versus playing games. 

My tactics rating is now ~2100, and I will obviously keep practicing.

Any help is appreciated

I would spend more time playing than studying.

Also, post games that you lost if you don't know why you lost them.

I think if you really want to improve spend maybe 15 to 30 mins on tactics each day. Spend another 30 mins to an hour reviewing either opening middle game or end game.. spend at least an hour playing chess.. and every so often sit down with a board and actually go through master games
