brilliant moves depend on rating?!

I was reading older forum posts here, and I saw one slot brilliant moves being too easy. I saw in one of the replies, @Martin-stahl wrote this:

“MancoAjedrez wrote:

I'm a very low rating player so I was very surprised on getting a brilliant move
After some analysis I think that another condition to get a brilliant could be a move that is not normal for things like the flow of the game or the rating of the players.
Meaning, a lot of people probably would see that and say "that's just an obvious move" but for players on my tier, maybe not...



Rating plays into the definition as well. Som moves will be marked as brilliant for some ratings where they won't be for a higher rated player on the same position.”

Now, I’m aware that the estimated game rating depends on player rating, but the evaluation of moves also does?!?! Is this still the case? If so, will it be fixed soon?

There's nothing to fix, it's part of the definition.

  • We are also more generous in defining a piece sacrifice for newer players compared to those who are higher-rated.

Is there a base rating for what really counts as brilliant? And what if I review someone else’s game, or a game using the analysis board?
