getting to 2000k is pretty easy, actually

> you have 25000 games and subpar stats
Compared to your ratings, those "subpar stats" are 461 higher in rapid and 234 in blitz so I wonder what should yours be called?

And these unprovoked attacks at anyone who dares to disagree with you while complaining loudly about "being attacked" are even more pathetic.

> Secondly, switch to classical or blitz to compound what you've learnt in rapid and do puzzles on the side.
> Thirdly, realize that playing on ZEN mode is the greatest gift you could give yourself, trust me!

While those are intresting tips, its obvious that there isn't an easy way reach 2000 (if you aren't a prodigy) beacuse then everyone would be 2000's.
like an economist finding a 20$ bill on the sidwalk but not picking it up beacuse if it were real, someone who have already picked it up

That's a pretty rough road. Last time I tried, I went directly from 1800 to 1807! After thousands of games, I still have not managed to get the baby steps right.

I'd advise you to start a subreddit.

Play for very long time and get very good at chess (3-6) years

Claim 1800 is easy. And you suck for not getting it
Say most generic advice
-> most common thing they look for tactics, that's just straight up, incorrect
Maybe your profile would be much more belivable if you had 2000 rapid (rapid is way easier than blitzs)

Maybe, but I can't really believe that he got 1400 rapid,
And 1800 blitzs, but I suck at blitzs
Most profiles have 200 point lower to equal elo of blitzs
I never see reverse tho

Okay still rare but not as rare as 1400 rapid and 1800 blitzs

> omigosh you're so slow
bro you called @Heuss4726Player low? bro you know how difficult it is to get to 2600?? bro he is better than 100% of the chess players according to lichess(note that if there are 1000 players and you are 5th or 10th then you will be better than 100%)
and why dont you play a match with him kid BTW i am not sure if he will play against a rude rookie kid but i will play and make you lose your arrogance(if you dont beat me dont offend me or any other guy more than 2100 or 2000 rated because they are not rookie like you and dont offend more than 2500 rated players because they can beat us easily not easily but they can beat us)
