You can't, play some games and your rating will level out then.

I don't know yet but I am still trying to figure that out.

If you somehow figure it out Plz don't be afraid to comment on how you did it.

Other than closing your account and starting over, you can't.

I was reading an article and it should on mobile be in the setting go to your account picture and go to level and you should be able to change it.

You can't change your level after an account is created.

I started with beginner - how do I move it up to intermediate

You need to complete the David and Goliath quest by defeating the Ogre King in his Cave of No Return. It's not a particularly difficult quest if you prepare well.

How Do i do that quest?????

If had started at 1000-1200 and were playing at a lower level, your rating would have quickly dropped. The starting rating doesn't have as big of an impact as you are thinking it does.

But every game I win I get like +19-40

The more games you play, the more stable your rating will become. If you're winning all your games, you'll quickly get a higher rating. If you're not winning them all, your rating is probably getting close to where it should be.

well just keep playing your rating earnings will go down but that is just the facts you will eventually get to were you need to be

Can I chose my level ? I'm 1300, but there is not the good rate near my skin.
