Secret SCIS-iety

Simplified Chess Improvement System

This is a unofficial Lichess team for players following GM Noël Studer’s Simplified Chess Improvement System (SCIS).

SCIS is a holistic, structured chess improvement framework designed for adult amateur players who want real progress without overwhelm. Instead of random puzzles, scattered opening prep, or passive consumption, the system focuses on building transferable skills that show up in your games.

• Focusing on what actually matters for improvement
• Studying less, but better
• Turning knowledge into practical, in-game skills
• Staying consistent over time

Who This Team Is For

• Adult amateur players
• Players who feel stuck despite regular training
• Ambitious improvers who want a system they can trust
• SCIS students looking for like-minded training partners

What You’ll Find Here

• Training games, sparring, and discussion aligned with the system
• A focus on practical play, analysis, mindset, and consistency
• No noise, no random advice — just structured improvement

This team is not officially affiliated with GM Noël Studer or Next Level Chess. It exists to support players who apply the Simplified Chess Improvement System and want to train with others who take their improvement seriously.

Train smarter. Build skills. Trust the process.
