the most difficult achievements

Sort:

a short list. if there are any you think should be added, let me know.

legend league.

the league achievements are not available yet, but when they are, this might be the most difficult achievement to earn. out of millions of people on chess.com, only 29,942 have made it to legend as of time of writing.

puzzle addict.

this one can take years. 10,000 puzzles is a lot to solve correctly.

silicon brain. 

the drill awards are not working currently, but there are over 100 drills you must complete to get this.

castle victory.

this one is almost impossible to force, as castling is usually done early in the game. this one is very rare and one of the primary competitors for hardest achievement.

chatter box.

this one isn't really difficult, as all you have to do is post, but the shear number of posts you need, 10,000, put it on the list.

full house.

checkmating without losing any pieces is rare. I believe you can get this one by timeout as well, which would make it much less difficult.

nick of time.

every bullet player ever will win with less than a second left at some point, but this one is uncommon for those who play longer time controls.

Nice!;D

they are, but because discovered checkmate counts, they are easy to get if you try for them specifically.

The full house achievement  can be acquired by playing with a very low rated player.(Idk if it can be achieved by winning on time)

I once won a game of 4 way chess where I knocked out all three of the other players and didn't lose a piece. Too bad there isn't an achievement for that.

Also the full day achievement for puzzles. And killer king.

I didn't include killer king because it is easy to get if you try, just difficult randomly. it seemed redundant to have both puzzle addict and full day.

the only ones I don't have are puzzle addict and legend league but both of them are really challenging
