Rang en problèmes

Salut ! J'ai réussi à atteindre le rang Légende 20 (soit le niveau max) et à ma grande surprise, si je repasse un niveau de + je retombe au rang Bois 1 (soit le tout premier niveau) ?

C'est assez décevant lol, j'hésite vraiment à continuer les problèmes du coup j'ai pas envie de perdre mon rang si durement atteint

Hello there ! I finally managed to reach the max level at Puzzles. And i was surprised to see that I'm about to fall to the first level if I keep doing puzzles...

That's a bit disappoiting, I don't really know if I want to keep doing puzzles. I don't want to lose my so hard-earned rank

Rank means next to nothing, the puzzles rating is more important.

Thus, starting the whole cycle over, you have the opportunity to improve your rating.

I suggest posting puzzles rating in this thread.

I have 3520 elite

Ps. Besides, doing puzzles in a cycle, you memorize patterns.

I switched to classic mode from puzzle settings after the second time at Crystal tier, it's been much better. Although now I have sunk from having over 2700 to under 2500. Ugh. I had a bad puzzle streak after I had the (world record?) best streak of 965 after I stopped doing tiers. Basically what I did was only complete a puzzle when I became sure it was right. Sometimes it was clear from the start, sometimes it took me hours or days to figure out the right answer.

I stopped with that tactic basically because I became impatient. Later I discovered the puzzle records page and found out about the 965 streak. It still feels unreal to me too and I don't know what that number means if it's actually puzzles completed in a row or another number like elo gained in a row. Because the classic system doesn't show u a number of puzzles done in a row I didn't know earlier how many I had actually done.

But now with the impatient way I have gotten even some of the most basic puzzles wrong. I'm too frustrated to do more puzzles. I think I will have a little break from them or go back to the patience way.

By the way a lot of the situations in puzzles are explained in lessons. It's not a coincidence that the guy leading the lessons leaderboard is also nr.1 in puzzles (although doesn't have as long of a best streak as me). It's all about memorizing all the puzzles. Lessons help. I'm going through those now.

My favorite part of lessons so far has been the "Think like a chess player" and from that particularly the winning tactics challenges. There's a lot of the same situations from puzzles. Go check that out if you haven't & especially if you have no patience to start from the beginning of the lessons & want to learn the best stuff right away 😄(find that & more from the lessons library) Also I have been doing a lot better at rapid chess after doing the lessons (and puzzles). I hope that doing lessons will help bring a better understanding of the situations in puzzles.

hoo

So Today I discovered custom puzzles section where the puzzles are categorized. I've always wanted to know the categories/end goals since at least on mobile none are showing while doing puzzles. Also it's a great alternative to do custom ones when stuck on a hard one in normal puzzles & takes the pressure off (unrated). What a nice relaxing experience! I get to concentrate on categories like Zwischenzug, a topic I liked in the lessons section. Those have so far been over 2000 rated difficulty, that is a plus. I feel less frustrated with puzzles now after this custom discovery. So yeah there's other types of puzzles than doing the tiers if bored with that repetitive system after doing a whole round.

Random puzzles have their advantage. They help you switch from one tactical idea to another faster and easier. In a real game, that's exactly how things happen.
