One thing I'll add on this is learning time management. Just playing the game and knowing the right mvoes usually isn't enough, at least in a competitive environment. You need to learn how to keep your time healthy, when not to use up too muchtime and when to use enough time. Usually, prepping openings is key to blitzing through the first few mvoes and then use your brains in the middle game imo. Again, work on your time management. if you're playing classical, it's fine to take upto even 20 mins if you need it, but generally it shouldn't take too long ig. Rapid? I'd say a max of 3 mins in critical positions, but otherwise you should be putting in 20 seconds per move on average. Don't play blitz if you're still learning, you need to first learn what to play before playing fast.
I’ve been playing competitively since I was 6 and I’ve just managed to break the 2000 FIDE barrier. So I’m quitting competition to focus on coaching full time! Great video btw!
600-1000 range chiming in to touch on consistency a bit more. If you're here, you probably already play a lot of chess. You have a lot of great games, and a lot of bad games. If you've been sticking with 1 or 2 openings, then you already have a lot of great games of your own that you can study. Go back, analyze those. Look at what your best moves in the first 10-15 turns were, and use those for next time. If studying is hard, don't even try to study the whole game. Just the first 10-15 moves.
The best advice that I can give to 800-1000 and below its to pay attention to the game, and just do puzzles 30 min per day. These two allow me to reach 1200 yesterday just in matter of 3 weeks. When I was something around 900, I played badly blundered pieces missed good moves etc. but I could feel that I've had big potential. And then I just listened to two advices of some IM or some of that and I skyrocketed. I know that probably that is not going to be the same to you if you are 900 or something but, that will help alot. I promise, that's all I have, wish good luck to anyone who reads this. Oh, also what I mean by paying attention it means, no music no other deals, no videos on background and most importantly, do your things before you play like homework for example.
2100 here, i'd say wether openings are important or not depends on the type of player you are, in my case, i play systems, the modern, KIA, stuff like that, and usually we leave theory pretty early on, its way more important to know how to play the position, the plans, the concepts, people at my level get beaten all the time by taking up too much time in an unknown position, or sometimes even a pretty straightfoward tactic, same as other ranges, it just happens a bit less often. I'd say tho, basic endgame knowledge, specially knight endgames, pawn endgames and rook endgames, will probably be enought to cross 2000.
Guess I'm in the 2000+ range, so i feel obligated to comment that openings really aren't that important at all until you get above 2000. The most important thing is to improve tactics by doing puzzles and if you're above 1400 some endgame studies/positional concepts are getting important.
I have a rating of 1120 elo I've been playing for less than a year, I'm learning how to have a good opening and correcting mistakes. That's all I did, and one more. Watch and learn how the pros do it.
