    About this video:
    This is a rating climb series (or speedrun) where I play games against players from different rating levels, starting at 600 and working all the way up to 2200. In this video I play players in the 1000 to 1200 range. I try to focus on the thought process behind the moves I'm making. You will learn all sorts of chess strategies, chess tactics, chess ideas, and chess concepts. I talk about how to think during a chess game and what the thought process should be.

    We've all heard about the 'knights before bishops' but this 21:58 is probably the best explanation I have heard as to why.

      Thanks! Yeah I actually find it really difficult to talk through what I'm thinking during a game. For some reason it's a lot harder than talking through lessons that I've thought through ahead of time.

    28:10 wouldn't a better move be trading the bishops before moving the queen? it forces the opponent to take back with the king since the queen is pinned to defending the black bishop

    • @ChessVibesOfficial
      @ChessVibesOfficial  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey Shreyash, one thing you can do is spend some time learning some Gambit openings which will lead to tactical positions. A lot of times you can steer the game into open positions if you are more comfortable with those.

    @stuartyaxley6689 ปีที่แล้ว

    Would bishop to d3 at 12mins 15 seconds be a good move? I noticed you didn't consider it? It develops the Bishop and defends against the fork. Tradeoff being you don't get to take the Bishop on g4.

    • @ChessVibesOfficial
      @ChessVibesOfficial  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Shreyash, just keep working on your tactics. Do lots of tactics puzzles so your brain will start to recognize a lot of different patterns. Eventually you will get better and better at seeing the combinations correctly.

    6 points - 5 points!

    Any advice for someone who's struggling to get past 1000 points on puzzles at chess/com? I'm not sure if I just need more practice or if I need to new way of looking at them.

    • @ChessVibesOfficial
      @ChessVibesOfficial  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey Ryan, I made this video previously where I talk about how to solve puzzles: th-cam.com/video/T3lvEYVxcxc/w-d-xo.html If you are already trying those things, the best thing to do is keep practicing, and make sure you take the time to understand the solutions to the puzzles that you are getting wrong. Over time, you will start to see the same types of patterns and your rating should improve. Hope that helps!

    • @lucasoscar
      @lucasoscar 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      i learned that you should look for checks-captures-attacks in that order, most of the puzzles will involve checks, when they get a little more complex they add sacrifices and later they add pins, cant tell much more since im currently climbing also

  • @justingillette8287
    @justingillette8287 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    in your first game, when you setup to let your rook get taken by the knight, at one point you had a white square bishop that looked like could have been placed row 3 just under the enemy knight to defend letting the knight fork check your king and rook, i saw that option and it looked good from my perspective, but the game moved on in a different direction, just wondering if you saw that option and was it actually a good one?
    I appreciate these videos its nice to get a play by play on your thought process!

    • @ChessVibesOfficial
      @ChessVibesOfficial  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Richard, you are definitely off to a good start! That's a tough question to answer because it varies a lot from person to person. Mostly depends on 2 things though: how much natural ability you have, and how much time you are putting into studying and playing. If you put in a lot of time, I'd say you can probably make it up to the 1000-1200 range in a couple of months (for online ratings). Over the board ratings tend to take a bit longer usually because you have to find tournaments to go to so it really depends how much time you're putting into it. One other thing you will find is that it's a lot easier to go from 500 to 800, than from 800 to 1100. And then to go from 1100 to 1400 will probably take even longer. Hope that helps!

      @Shungarui 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Started playing chess around 8 months ago. Was stuck 700-800 for a while but eventually got to 1000 after enough games.
      After doing puzzles about 3 times a week I got to 1100 after 4 months of playing and got stuck again.
      I did the practice course in lichess and that helped me get to 1300. Basic strategies and checkmate learning stuff. I am close to 1400 now. Analyzing games help a lot too.

      @@Vernalobos Yeah. I agree it's hard getting past 1000 or 1100. The first thing I've noticed in a lot of people's games are blunders. Trust me, you ARE making blunders. Nelson made a video where he shared a method to figure your blind spots. What I would say is always look for tactical opportunities which generally happen around undefended pieces, low value pieces attacking high value pieces, bad pieces which can be trapped etc etc. Also, there is a channel called hanging pawns. When I saw this channel, It was like finding a gold mine. They have videos on middle game ideas, opening theory, endgame methods etc etc.
