What's the best way to get good at chess?

My suggestion is to get some good games with comments. For every move, before seeing the move, try to put down in writing the 3 best possible answers and see if you have caught the champion's move in one of the three.

feel chess
breathe chess

if your talent reaches you will make it far

At your level:

*stop blundering and take ur time and think
*play a good opening
*punish most of ur opponents’ mistakes

1300-1700

*learn to play middlegame
* do a lot of puzzles
*learn endgames

1700<

*people here are good
*learn strategies
*stick to an opening
*create ur own plans in middlgame
*study endgames

Follow any 5 players.. Study their games... Study their openings... U will be 1650-1800
