After watching this video I played a game, and for the first time ever had ZERO blunders, I still lost on time but was ahead 7 points. Thanks for the great tips.

I can't believe that failing to develop pieces was not a category in this rating range. It is so common to see the entire queenside not get developed. From the lack of development flows being unable to protect the king and a more developed opponent having tactical opportunities from simply having more pieces involved.

I’ve been wasting my time for 3 years trying to get to 1000 and 2 years after I planned to reach the landmark I’m actually getting worse . It’s just not fun anymore 😢

I rose from 480 to 550 thanks to this video of yours! Thank you so much!

I recently fell from 700 down to 500 and haven't been able to break back above 600 since. And you're totally right, it all just stems from me moving too quickly, thinking too hard about my own moves and not considering what my opponent is changing about the board. Thank you!

ty for this guide,i was 873 rating at my peak and for some reason and all of a sudden i feel all the way down to 563 ty now i will try to get 900 rating

Very helpful, thanks

Thank you for this. I've recently become obsessed with chess, and broke through 700 and then got knocked down to 600 again. I want to go back up!

Probably the most informative chess channel I’ve come across , especially for beginner-intermediate players who are looking to improve their elo .

This helps a lot. 1 or 2 blunders cost me a game lot of times. It sucks. Some 600+ players don't play bad by my standards 😆 . Can you explain how to break the opponent defensive position? There are games where I end up low on material because I mess up the trades 😞 .

Thanks a lot!, i improved a lot and i even went from 600 elo to 701 elo in just hours!

I like these videos! However, in Blundering, you also have to consider intentional sacs and exchange sacrifices. And unintended piece loss or move that creates one on yourself would have to be part of it. Undefended pieces can be part of it too, but could be victim of a tactical combo that typically requires a higher rating (experience) to spot. IE: It's not just points lost. PS: I think, in the last example, it was White that Blundered more . He was defended once and attacked 2x. And he'll be down a pawn after Nxe5.

dude its 1400!!! You are not stuck. You are winning

Ik stuck at 500 despite being 1800 at Go. Even when I do my best to ensure my pieces are always defended, I end up in positions where I have no good moves to advance my position whereas every opponent move is significantly challenging for me. It feels like, somehow, I'm always in the worst possible variation. I don't know what to change. I *wish* my opponents blundered 84% of the games that I'm in with them.

4:27 I don't know if you were just using this as an example or not but I've never seen a 600 do that before

As a 600 elo I can confirm that at some point in every game I will eventually commit a megablunder that ruins my entire position for the rest of the game.

This is pretty much me! Subbed ;-)

About the blunder part, taking a bishop for a pawn is good if they only have a pawn and you have a bishop to force a draw. You cant mate with a bishop and they can mate w a pawn. Only do this in endgames

I’m 1200, idk why I’m watching this video, but I was 600 rated about six or seven months ago If I have any tips for beginners, it’s to stay away from opening videos and most YT videos in general. Analyze your games, apply chess principles, and stop memorizing. Rely on your intuition and focus on ideas and tactics. Understand the ideas of your opening and play long time control games (15 | 10 minimum) you’ll improve in no time. Don’t chase wins, I only play one or two games a day and that gives me more improvement than playing scores of them a day. STOP MEMORIZING YOUR OPENINGS 10 MOVES DEEP drives me crazy because it seems like everyone in the 800-900 bracket does that and then you don’t see as many book moves past 1000 because people understand what they’re playing.

Watching this for second time. Was at 550, now at 400 , now m determined to break 6c

My problem consist in been really good in some games even with strong playes, and extremely weak in others, i am not consistent. By the way, to avoid blundering, i divede the board y four 4x4 squares, and i analice what's already attacking me in each square, so i say ''the queen square is 1 anything to care of by now'', ''square 2 is the king one, there is some danger and my target'', and then, the squere 3 and 4. By dividing the board in 4, you'll more control of it and it'll help to control blunders.

All good tips, but I think they're more about getting beyond 500. Those struggling around 600 probably known them already.

Hit my new record at 678 from 580 after this video 👍

@@ryancheng5263 Two possibilities: either they've played a lot of chess and watched a lot of chess content and their rating is 1400-1600, or they decided they'd stick to being a casual player and play a game or two a week, in which case their rating is probably 800-1000. For some reason, people tend to fall into just these two categories, and it is rare that their rating is outside of these ranges after 5 months.

I bounced between 400 and 600 until I figured out all the tricks my opponents were using to attack my f pawn. I’ve been climbing steadily since then with a 55% win rate. Hopefully it doesn’t level off for a while. I think my biggest problem now is not catching my opponents blunders until I analyze the game.

It is so difficult to get any higher rating. Like I play five good games and each game gives maybe 8 points then I play one bad game with someone with lower rating and then I lose all the progress. Back to the same score. And also when going to play blitz game for example and I match with my level but then when checking his stats on rapid he has much better score.

@@ChessVibesOfficial Thanks! will do

okay, so... what i got from this is that if I wait for other 600 players to blunder (which they will do statistically) than i will win. I know this wasnt the intended message to take away but by playing more defensively and waiting for the mistakes I have climbed 100 pts. so thanks!

Chess drives me insane; I have fluctuated between 500-600 for over 2 months. Stupid blunders and impulsive moves are what kill me. I’ll lose a game and be mad so destroy my accuracy the next game and stagnate my long term rating development. Could realistically be close to 700-800 if not for these mistakes so hopefully can correct it.

I have found a mistake in your video. >2 points means that a blunder is more than 2 points, but then, you said that you lost 2 points. The correct way to have said that is ≥2 points. Edit: As a 550 ELO, this video was amazing and really helped me!

What he doesn't tell you is that players don't really play in an ideal manner like this. You often can't castle before move 10 because your opponent is attacking you and you have to focus on defending pieces while trying to get some developing moves in at the same time. Real world chess doesn't conform to general principles at all. Even playing bots is not as predictable as this. I suppose, what we could say is that these are ideals to strive towards, but don't expect to achieve them. "Do this, UNLESS..." "Don't do this... UNLESS..." That's why all good chess players have to spend a ridiculous amount of time learning openings, lines, middle games, end games, puzzles, historic games... ... It's like learning a new language or a new skill. If you do it successfully 100 times you are a novice. If you do it successfully 1000 times you're competent. Do it successfully 10,000 times and you've finally mastered it. Since my life is already full I guess I'll have to be happy just playing and losing most of the time. Hey, I'm here to help you rank up!

Technically your game example wasn't a blunder, right? because he can capture the knight back and he'd only be down 1 point when the knight again recaptures the pawn. You defined a blunder as being down two down two points. However, it also leads to a weakened pawn structure for white, which is bad
