What's the most raging thing with chess?

ThePersonAboveYou

I’m on mobile, can’t undo a premove. Cost me so many games, and most of the time I didn’t even mean to premove

- The opponent slacking to waste time just because they are losing

- Losing on time

- Lag/Terrible internet connection

- Poor sport

- The opponent quitting the game by leaving rather than resigning

- Streamers making fun of players and that streamer acts like they're the best and that they own the whole world.. (Kids)

For me it's when I am completely winning a game and have checkmate in a few moves but then losing on time.

thinking for like half of your time, and playing a move just to realize you blundered scholars mate

lichess has a less reliable rating system, and 1600 on lichess doesn't correspond to 1600 on chess.com, for example.

You are right

well, you'd say that but there is a very weird phenomenon when you reach 2000. Well, it isn't weird for the reason I gave which is what triggers me the most, but lichess is much more reliable for higher elo, giving a much more accurate representation. I mean idk, not a lichess player.

Like on this site, an 1800 is where they are expected to be (and everything before that too). But a 1900 is almost blunderproof and it takes a lot of effort to crack them.

But when you get to 2000 (after playing like 10 games), you turn into a blundermachine, hanging pieces but still making comebacks. And at 2100, you get your soul crushed by the stupidly huge no. of cheaters.

It sort of resets when you get to 2200, but you are no longer the same. After all that hardwork of making sure that the most you would blunder is a pawn at 1900, you now have to be extra cautious each game

Sure, lichess is really inconsistent when you start a new account, but at least it doesn't have such a massive playing strength dip at a certain rating.

Lag. I always lose to the 10 second lag that comes with my computer.

That’s actually good, because it increases chances of stalemate.

CC's rating change parameters are not the same, you get like 16 for each win now.

I rage when I have to play as black against the King’s Gambit or the Danish Gambit.

Accidentally stalemating your opponent when you're up a whole queen

seeing why a move is bad after playing it

yeah same, one of the worst feelings, especially when you definitely have more than enough time to spend that extra 0.5 seconds to see why it's a bad move.

Blundering against a lower rated player, then they check you for 7 minutes straight because they don't know how to close out the game.
