frustration again
Sort:
And here we go again. Less than a month ago my rating was approaching mid 1900’s. I was regularly beating and competing well against 1900-2050 ratings. Now all of a sudden I’m down to low 1700’s and struggling against as low as 1650 ratings. Anyone else experience this type of fluctuation in their game. So aggravating.
I think you take your higher rating for granted. You should focus and learn on making good moves by analysis or tutorial. I am sure you made lots of mistakes when beating 1900s and you got lucky to got rewarded. And you are making same crappy mistake now against 1650s but now you are not getting lucky and so your rating is dropping. I think you are the same player when you are at 1900s and 1700s. But in reality there is skill gap of 200 rating point which you don't. So you are now at 1650s. First making good moves, then result and after that comes the ratings
What time control?
Rating fluctuations are part of the journey. Even strong players go through this cycle, so don't let it discourage you.
Obviously frustrations in rated games against Chessmaster bots but much worse than that, violent defeats against bots I've already won several times and which are wreaking havoc on my elo points in the program.
It's demoralizing and makes I want to stop playing. Example of games :
1)
