I'm the exact opposite. I never studied openings, but I would often finish games with computer after solving a puzzle, so I'm pretty decent in the endgame
This is me too, my strategy early game is to just trade away pieces as fast as possible to bring the endgame sooner
Your opponent can't know what you're planning if even the computer doesn't know what you're planning.
@The_Picard_Maneuver B b but... ... random bullshit is supposed to come in the mid game isn't it?
You're supposed to think really hard in the mid game, THEN do random bullshit anyway.
@The_Picard_Maneuver so that's where I'm going wrong.
I'm addicted to 1. Nf6 as black lately which is pretty indistinguishable from random bullshit in the opening.
I've been seeing that more often in my games recently. Usually that's King's Indian, right?
@The_Picard_Maneuver against 1. e4 you can do Alekhine's defence, and if they do 2. e5 that is fun, and if they stay away you can just move to King's Indian or Pirc.
At my low level it's also a good way to dissuade the scholar's mate entusiasts out there.
I recognize these names, but I would need to look them up to see what they are.
I only know a couple of openings myself, and luckily I haven't seen scholar's mate attempts in a while.
would need to look them up
yeah that's why I like Alekhine in particular. I'm a patzer and too old/lazy to learn theory myself, so I like it when no one else has either.
This is a nice little intro to the main lines. Super fun opening as black.
Thanks, bookmarking this! I know I've seen it show up on the info block to the right of the board while playing before, so I bet this will feel familiar, but I can't remember if it's been my opponents or me (accidentally) doing it.
@The_Picard_Maneuver I think that's what led me to it, seeing it mentioned.
I was like "hmm, the computer thinks I'm doing a thing! What is this thing..?"
Don't come after me like this
You guys beat games???
thank you translator's note.
they could have just translated keikaku to plan in the subtitle? 😭
This is also me in RTS games.
I'd love to see y'all's Lichess game history 🤣
Mine is full of nonsense (but on chess.com).
