Finally 2400+ Training Puzzle

It took a lot of effort to reach 2400+, there will always be something that mess with me. (I never get 15 correct in a row) Sometimes there are 2 viable lines but I so happen to choose the 2nd best (very close evaluation) fxg6 or hxg6 and I just got it wrong. Analysis shows they don't matter much anyway.

Every wrong costs me -15 while each correct +3, definitely taking a break. I wonder is there a leader board, will take a lot of concentration to reach 2500+

Congratz! I'm already struggling at 1800ties...

I would like things like a ladder, more historical data and maybe less/no points (but not loss) for the 2nd best line :-)

The lichess team has been working on removing those non unique solution puzzles so they should be much rarer now than they used to be.

I never met a puzzle where the lines didn't differ enough. If you meet such, it is a bug and this must be reported to lichess feedback forum.

There is no leaderboard, but yesterday IM Stefan Kuipers (@TricksOnlyNL ) hit the 2900 rating in puzzles on his twitch stream. This is probably the absolute lichess record and he's heading to 3000. However, it seems he never meets puzzles of rating >2600, so this is close to maximal difficulty that a correct lichess puzzle can have.

I am sturgling at 1500 for some or another reason.

Take your time, some puzzles might take me 5 minutes+. I even tried to calculate "free pieces" moves where it might be correct. Try to calculate every check/capture/attack. You don't lose points for taking 10+ minutes, but it is tiring.

I am back, starting at 2412 after about 600 more puzzles breaking 2500 mark. I noticed it is far better to take your time. (I was 2100+ during my bad streaks)

The punishment is huge for getting wrong answer. Sometimes I got 5-6 moves correct but wrong on last (-20 ouch). I wish the punishment decreases as I get the right moves.

But it is very good habit to build for tournaments. 1 wrong and that's it!! It makes me stay focus and try to get a good streak .

I finally managed to get 15 or more correct in a row. (but sadly mostly gives 2 to 4 points)

Pushing higher takes serious amount of focus.
