Why do we blunder?

> You need to do puzzles regularly and seriously. There are millions of puzzles here and it will take very much time to master them. One needs to know all the tactics with perfection. It's very hard for anyone to master tactics. But you should keep doing and you will definitely improve over time. Also, play comparatively slower time control games.
Look at my profile (ignore my old bullet games) and see my recent ones. You should see lot of classical ;)

> Lol. But then why do stronger players make so few? I don't think I ever saw a titled players lose up a queen... Even you are 1927 in rapid so you probably don't blunder that much. What would you suggest to not tilt?
Ha ha ha.
I do blunder when I'm not in form.
That's natural!
@vinoovarshan but maybe not as much. I lost all my games and yesterday and have been tilting ever since.. My rating went down as I lost pretty much every single game.
@LukaCro thanks I will check it out... Maybe it will help.
Edit: Yep I definitely don't focus ob my opponent's ccts rather my own. I have been trying to think about this during a game too.
I blunder when I feel tired or when I play faster time controls.
When you win, for example, a piece (bishop, rook...) or a game, some people think that they can get revenge and that it will be easy because as their opponent has lost, they think that they are strong and that they can win, and gradually begins to lose attention and causes blunders. Everyone can do a blunder
@saurabhsangeeth and @MrPushwood I think you guys both mean that it's just human nature to blunder and nothing can be done.. Well I did accept that but I wonder why some people make less than others..
