People tend to assume that standard chess is harder. However, why is it that no one in antichess can get above 2400? The top guys lose to 1700 or 1800's regularly. I think it might be easier to blunder in antichess, which explains why top guys lose to low level guys. Not blundering in antichess is extremely difficult at a high level. Maybe it is easier to get to intermediate level in antichess. You can do that in a few days. But try getting 2300. Only a handful of people in the world can.

Actually, if you look at the leaderboard, the antichess champion has the lowest rating in antichess, compared to the #1 player in every other chess variant. Conclusion: antichess is the most difficult, and best, manifestation of chess.
