I know why I'm stuck below 1000. I keep playing 2000 + ELO teachers posing as chess noobs.
Practice puzzles bro puzzles get me from 1250 on Lichess to 1550 fide 😂 openings doesnt matter much in your peak
3.14 take the damn bishop 😂😂😂
Same Here 1550 i just dont blounder Like this
5.15 he atacked the Queen so what f5
I see all these UA-camrs trying to get they’re Elo up, and it looks easy, I play against someone with 200 elo, and they play like someone with 1000 elo
Great series! It's great to have another articulate teacher on UA-cam that can help walk through chess principles in an easy to understand way! I really liked that you didn't capitalise on the obvious blunder your opponent made to help keep the game instructive and not immediately imbalanced.
8.08 push the pawn bro
This game is easy when somebody atack you with a Queen just chace his Queen by developing peaces
16.45 take the damn free pawn guy unpinned the King😂
idk if this is the case but for some reason I feel like the 400-500s I play are better than the dude in the video like they don't hang free pieces as much and they can easily find checkmate opportunities that I can't
Yeah truee😅
This is how I also experience it.
It’s because he has less games played on the account so he is matched with 500 elos with less games. Whereas in our case I have 120 games played so I will be matched against an opponent with similar stature
@@yeshuaislightwoah I didn't know about that that's why it's hard to play against 500 elos I have done 180 games.
My best piece of advice is. Every single move ask what are they attacking and where do they want to move next. You will absolutely win more games if you ask this every single move and respond accordingly.
Hi Hoffster. I don't know if you enjoy making videos but I enjoy watching them. The unraked to 1500 series was something I looked forward to everyday. You have the skills to be a great chess player and youtuber if you continue to make great content for us :)
My mission is to make educational and entertaining chess content for you guys, I appreciate it
Thx for the courses . I was 500 a week ago now I’m 900
That is impossible lol
@@sanelqun6606i don't think that it's entirely impossible if he played long enough with proper techniques and tricks he could, I myself went from below 200 to 500 in less than a week.
14:50 you moved out the bishop that was protecting the g pawn. They didnt but could have taken the g pawn with the queen causing problems
I would've considered pushing the pawn instead, keeping the tension
This is bad game but still good game for your rating😂
That would be a bad move because white can just go Rg1 gaining tempo and having 5 pieces in the game while black has only moved their queen.
at 2:10 why not just take with pawn and keep the knight?
if pawn takes it doesn't threaten the knight at c3
that's just a theory coming from a 400 elo 💀💀
It maintains pawn structure, you're up in the trade, and when you're up, simplify the board.
This really help me understand what to focus on in the low ranks. Thx allot
@5:58 Your Bd5 is pinned to Qd1 and you suggest blocking Bg4 with Bd5 to Be4 leading to Qxd7. It is defend by Rd8, but I think most 500 elo are going to lose faith and tempo when they lose their queen to a discovered attack. I'm sure anyone stuck at 500 elo knows tactics, pushed pawns, discovered checks and attacks, etc. Good video, I just wanted to point out the loss of the queen. This is a good video as there are a lot of videos for beginners that enforce certain rules, whereas, a player might be coming back into the game aware of beginner to intermediate chess and just got some bad play.
This video helped me out tremendously. I lost 350 elo in the span of 2 days after coming back to chess after 3 years. The bottom line was I did everything with haste, fast play and blunders thinking I could out maneuver my opponent slowing down makes all the difference
500 elo in the video 💖🫦🍣✨️🥰 500 elo when i try on my own 👹👹🔥🔥💀💀☠️🤡
At 14.55, you hung your G2 pawn when you moved your bishop to D3. If he'd taken your pawn on G2 with his Queen, your H1 rook would have been under threat and your F3 knight would have pinned defending the H2 pawn. Best in these circumstances to attack the Queen with the G2 pawn, forcing it back then bring your knight and bishop out
subscribed! nice hearing some clear and concise approach
at 7:20 if that happened you could just check the king and win the rook 😂
Lol the dudes I play at the 400-500 level never make that bishop mistake. That's wild
Thank you so much for this video! This really helped me a lot in my chess journey, road to 510 elo!
I got to 600s easily upon first starting playing. I cant believe that first guy just gave away a bishop like that. Never played anyone that bad
Nice video, really enjoyed it! Keep it up!
This was actually helpful! I just started the course, but in games against 1000 elo bot I didn't make any blunders!
Super helpful! Keep it up!
hoffster my sweet, please return and bless us with your genius
Great advice! Sometimes the grandmasters think things are too easy and miss explaining the why. Thank you
I'm at 400 elo, 3:00 time restraint, and I've seen people go for niche lines against me. I usually play high though
Loved it, I hope it helps me get better
More Video like this pls. Awesome
Thank you 🙏
how does this work? if i play someone they could play 5 billion different ways if i play a opening and they play an opening it could go anyway.
In simple words, on this elo u should just follow the principles and u will find a move soon which will start a cascade for a win
And thats the beauty of chess. You need to use your brain, if it was that easy then it wouldnt be a game.
What is your USCF rating, Hoffster?
is this the blues clues of chess
you are not those types of cringe youtuber
i love that how you so calm and cool i really appreciate it....
I am 300 elo, and I think they are very strong for me. but it seems very easy to beat in you video, I don't know why.
It's probably because the player he is playing against is probably weaker than average 500 elos.
@@animenetic8340 Yeah I'm hard stuck in 300 elo rn and this guy's elo is way higher than it should be
Yup ..very typical of us 500elos to get checkmate and then go ..!? What ?howd i do that haha😅😅
very good video
Why do you gain so many elo points when you win? All of my games are less than 10 when I win.
615elo here...@5:15 QB6
I Am just below 500...what i have to improve
I'm stuck below 2500
Because I blunder. Blunder. BLUNDER!. I play bots and consistently win up to 1700 ELO. Play live and get blasted. So many blunders.
Free link doesn’t work no more??
It does work
Nice video
