Am I bad at chess?

I recently blunder a whole lot of games, if you just look into my stats.

You have similar elo as me (look at my stats lol)

so technically you are not bad at chess. Intermediate is probably the best word to describe your chess skill XD 😆.

@seanthesheep021 I hate to break it to you, but 800 Elo isn't intermediate. It's still beginner level. When creating a chess.com account and you click the beginner option, it sets you up with an 800 Elo account.

According to chess.com 1200-1599 is intermediate

Chess is an implacable mirror of our flaws. When we blunder a lot at chess (which has nothing or little to do with how much we do understand chess), we should be concerned we're not overlooking important things in real life.
