What happens with elo rating ? • page 1/1 • General Chess Discussion • lichess.org

I don't understand why I lose against 1600, while my level in tactics and on chesscom has not changed, I'm supposed to be level 1780 on lichess, I have the impression that there has been an inflation on the elo ranking, but I am not sure.

I think you may be overfocused on the ELO ratings. Players of all ratings have fantastic games and don't always perform at the same level. Also, focus on learning from your losses. Understand the mistakes you made that helped you lose the game and see what you can do to improve. Hire a coach if it makes sense for you. Join a local chess club and talk about games. Also, don't just focus on your play. What mistakes did your opponents make to help you win?

Anyways I think you get my point. Chill out, enjoy and have fun.
