    It's dunning Kruger effect. The 2700 rated players are just as confused as the game as the 500 rated players but the 2000 and 2400 players understand the game

      low elo: chess is confusing
      midwit elo: tactics, pawn structure, strategy, endgames, theory, zugzwang, analysis, positional advantage, tablebases
      high elo: chess is confusing

    One sunny afternoon, while streaming a particularly intense game of blitz chess, I challenged them to a real-life game of 'giant chess' with a twist. The pieces were not just oversized, but they were also various pieces of furniture! Intrigued and always up for a challenge, Aman accepted without a second thought. The game was set in a public park, attracting a crowd of curious onlookers. As the game commenced, Aman, known for his aggressive style, advanced his 'knight', a small loveseat, with a dramatic flair. With my usual cool demeanor, i countered smoothly with a 'bishop', an ornate lampstand. However, things took a hilarious turn when Aman, in a moment of overzealous excitement, attempted to 'castle' using a hefty dining table. In his effort, he accidentally tipped the table over, sending a cascade of imaginary 'pieces' tumbling down, including Eric, who was perched atop the 'king', a plush armchair.
    The crowd erupted in laughter as Eric emerged from the pile of 'defeated pieces', his hair disheveled and his spirits down. The game had to be abandoned, as the Chessbrahs were throwing all furniture undeterred into the crowd. Suddenly I slipped while dodging a bicycle and broke my ankle, so now I'm in the hospital awaiting surgery.
    Dont support these guys!
