Although I am not a very experienced player at all, I would like to ask you to simply be yourself and do what you feel comfortable with (as long as it is your best possible). I've never heard of these "chess types," all except for the "good type" and the "bad type," and with practice, I'm sure you will be a good type. Chess is about having fun (unless your making money off of it). Just play and you'll find yourself along the way. Play and play a lot.

I suggest you stop thinking about what kind of player you are.
Just study tactics and master games and try to find the best move...style really has very little importance.
There are several ways to discern your style. First, in some positions there are multiple equally-good moves--which did you choose? Second, when you study master games are you better at guessing the moves of Tal or Karpov? Third, after you've studied all the major areas of chess--tactics, strategy, endgames, and openings--which one(s) do you like studying the most... and which ones do you dread?
At the "infancy" point of your chess career, determining your style is not too important. Your goal is to build basic competency--the same way an elementary schooler is expected to pass English, Math, PE, etc. before specializing in something. As time goes on you will gradually discover your own unique style. :)
I think that the most realistic answer is that in anyone's 'chess infancy' we are all the same type of player: "weak". Masters are masters because they have mastered all aspects of the game. Even though people say things like "Tal was a tactical player whereas Petrosian was a positional player," the fact is that Petrosian was capable of playing tactically sound games and Tal understood positional play. The difference, as others here have alluded to, is a matter of preference for certain types of positions.
As a beginner - i.e., in one's "chess infancy" - it is important to learn about all aspects of the game, because beginners rarely have a sound understanding of any of them. I'm not a beginner, but I know that all aspects of my game could certainly use lots of improvement. For someone who knows even less about the game than I do, I don't think it's very productive for them to worry about what sort of "style" they have. Beginners need to focus on things like learning basic opening principles, recognizing threats, not hanging pieces, and spotting basic tactics like forks, pins, and skewers. Once you have obtained a Master title you can start talking about your "style" (and that goes for me too - like I say, I know that all aspects of my play need improvement).
How do you figure out what type of player you are in your chess infancy? Do you study the tactics? Lasker, etc Or do you go unorthodox? Waitzkin,etc. I feel like I am being overwhelmed in info,(in a good way of course) just want to improve my game. Any questions I should ask myself, or could someone look at my archives and give some insight. Thank you in advance for all help.
