Hi all,
Today I decided to play some of the lichess user-created bots and I found that I really struggled to beat them, despite some having lower ratings than me (i.e I lost every game). The bots would always capitalize on my openings errors and seemed extremely underrated. I then played the maia bots who also seemed a bit underrated, but I could beat them, and another bot, who I was also able to beat. Is this just because I'm bad at openings and have never played bots before, or are all the bots underrated?
