Hi, can anyone help me. Im continually playing opponents with under 1100 ratings and a lot of them seem to be playing like a GM. Afterwards I check the game report and they have precision scores of 90% plus, some 95% plus. Very few mistakes, sometimes none! Is anyone else seeing this or has my chess deteriorated so much it’s time to stop playing! Lol

Ratings dont always reflect an accurate skill level. The more people study tactics/ stratagy the more blunder free games they have. Eventually 1 mistake or 1 weak pawn can decide the game

An important thing to keep in mind is that CAPS score is not necessarily a good indicator of playing strength. A person may seem like they are a very strong player, but it can easily be a game where they picked up on a mistake and had straightforward moves to take the win. Looking at your game history, it looks like the CAPS score is all over the place - both for you and your opponents - which is exactly to be expected by us low 1100s
