Hoping to one day reach 2000 Elo. Wish me luck!
My 3 Tips To Improve (from a 1600 player):
1. Play a lot! (I played 2551 games of chess in 2023)
2. Do plenty of puzzles (I solved over 1800 puzzles in 2023)
3. If seeking to improve in Blitz, do a lot of puzzle rush (blitz is mostly tactics under 2000 so get better in 3 and 5 min puzzle rush)
Note: Just to explain why I believe in these tips: I've been following them, and have gone from ~900-1000 to 1600+ Blitz in just over a year. Good luck! (you can also do it if you try! If you are already above 1600, congratulations!)
