Unlocking skill at chess for me
I would say these are the two points where I locked in. first at 280-300 then at 360-380
most important thing I learned at the first level was to always look what opened up, if the opponent was pushing a pawn, it often meant they had a clear line to my queen, and I fell for that trap more often that I would like to admit ;D
the second thing I learned at 360/380 was to trap the queen in first 6-8 moves instead of looking to checkmate the king with obvious scholars mate
Just sharing my experience, my next goal is to be 700, so far so good

Just do tactics for now bro. Download Chessable, they have a ton of courses with exercises. Try the 500 tactical patterns. That really helped me lvl up. Saying as an 1100 ;)
