Personally I never doubted Tyler, the guy is a beast and he's living proof that if you put enought time and focus into something you can acheive it. As for the rating he'll do what he said, he'll reach 2K and then never play chess again in his life.

I don't think there's any big mystery with Tyler1's improvement. What matters is how many games he played, how much he studied, and his focus/concentration in his games and studies during that nine month period. Of course his achievement is way above normal, very admirable, and I'd guess that he's probably a pretty intelligent guy to begin with. Anyway, Tyler1's improvement is inspiring, and imho underscores the importance of focused and concentrated work in improving any skill.

tyler1 literally brings tears to my eyes. Deciding to just randomly learn chess only to be hated on by all those chess nerds and then LITERALLY passing the majority of them within 9 months...

I saw on twitter that the cow opening is so rare in higher rankings that theory is almost completely destroyed and more than a fight of "who can memorize the moves" is more about the pattern recognition and creativity of the player, and Tyler1 is very good at that. He is literally playing like Bobby Fischer wanted chess to be. Not a memorization test but a creativity one

Nice review!

cat so cute

It's actually a brilliant strategy...learn one opening, and then brute force through low elo...when you reach medium high, people start using real plays, where you recognize how to move in every scenario based on your opening.

He's Built DIFFERENT!!

Don't fear the man who has practiced 10,000 openings, fear the man who has practiced the same opening 10,000 times - Sun tzu (probably)

Part of growing up is understanding genetics determine talent, hardwork and grind can only get you so far if you don’t have the genetic tools for pattern recognition in chess or coordination for sports, music etc

cope, you can overcome a lot in these skill based stuff with work ethic, analyzing mistakes, and figuring out to do better no one is saying you need to be the best but you can reach top 10% in most things without having talent for it. Probably need innate talent to be the very best but 99.999% of humanity will never reach that so why care about it in the first place?

@illarionbykov7401

@@Coconinga I agree that hard work can get an average person to the top 10% in almost anything, but top 10% doesn't impress most people these days--it's the modern condition that we are so used to seeing mostly top 1% or better on TV and social media, that merely top 10% starts to seem "below average" in comparison. FYI--the word "cope" means to "successfully deal with difficulty" so telling someone they cope is a compliment--it's saying the person is successful. Most social media trolls misuse the term because trolls just want to upset people, not learn or teach anything true or useful.

It's actually the other way around

I believe the cow opening works to waste the opponent's time, they are probably over thinking when playing against it, then they feel the pressure later in the game during the time crunch. Helps that Tyler can quickly puzzle out the board in late game.

I mean he doesnt play everyday though and hes also had a 3 month breaks inbetween climbing so hes also played less than people think. He said he plays on his phone when the baby is asleep on his chest.

Finally someone decided to take the time to humble all the long-titled chess players that chess is just a puzzle game and there is no need to be so unbelievably elitist about it like being good at it makes you some kind of genius or something. No offence to all the people who enjoy the game for what it is: an incredibly interesting puzzle game.

He just had a baby and said that he can play chess while his Daughter sleeps on him, so i think he's going to continue as far as he can

His headset indent pushed his skull far enough that it put pressure in his prefrontal cortex which unlocked 100% of his brain

Don't say that openings do not matter in low elo! The important thing is playing the SAME opening over and over again. This way you reduce the variables you have to think about. You will have more familiar situations at the beginning of the game, and you are setting up the game to go to a similar game state later on.
