Im about to sign up I def love the game of chess and need to touch up on my strategy .

[Hubert Cumberdale]

How come people act like chess is this game of high intelligence and shit, when something like CoD probably requires more strategy and also reactions?

COD don't require as much strategy... It just involves basic knowledge of the map, Reaction skills and weapons that are most effective to each map. This is coming from a dude with 2.1 KD ratio.

Chess is a game where u can exercise ur brain. EtH prob don't have one to require such exercise

I like to play some of u live but seems like the time zone makes it hard.

2.69 ratio :D

But it takes a bit more than that in some games. Hardcore capture the flag is pretty much a level where you need to tac in, clear their tacs, pick your route based on the flow of the game, pick your classes based on speed and effectiveness and several other things.

I also dont change my weapons based on the map. Why would you do that?

[MAN DOWN]

Honestly cod isn't shot compared to chess. Especially it you do tournaments. Try playing 2 hours , or even speed chess tournaments.. Cod is about aim and the exit your opponent is coming out of. Or turning ur analog stick to make sure nobodies behind u.. No brain power lol

[Hubert Cumberdale]

It's just a hierarchy of knowledge imo. It's like how you could write Classical Music Aficionado on a CV but couldn't even touch on being a rap fan.

And I only used COD as an example as well. I do play shit like Scrabble a lot which would be considered "intelligent" but again, I'd probably try and use more strategy in playing COD.

Lol chess requires wayyyyy more strategy, and this is coming from an experienced cod player.

Nice KD!.

Some maps are close combat maps vs. sniper maps Imo.

But It's just alot to know In COD vs Chess but chess requires almost seeing In the future or breaking down they type of player you're up against.

I've found that a high level of Chess highly cuts down the amount of potential situations. There may be millions of moves, but there are a lot of times that someone will come across a situation on the board that they have seen previously. I prefer games that are more individual and has more player personality involved. I find that is where strategy most comes in, figuring out behavioural patterns of people quickly.

[MAN DOWN]

You can play against a computer on aggressive really aggressive suicidal passive and then change the skill level all the way up to 3040 on a free chess app lol. There are different personalities. Plus the computer doesn't do te same shit neither does the human because one move changes EVERYTHING.

[Dean]

The openings are mostly memorization, but its a different story in the middlegame. You have to create your own strategy and find tactics. Sure, there's times where I recognize a pattern and know the best move in response, but 80% of the time it's me thinking for myself. It's mostly just the really experienced chess players, 1900 and above, that have style/personality in a game. That's where you see the super defensive players, and, on the other hand, the players that are all about attacking.

2.23 kd in Cod

[Hubert Cumberdale]

I dunno. To me that's like saying "One dude camping changes EVERYTHING". Again, I play Scrabble, which probably has a lot of likenesses with Chess, but I just wouldn't get the personality coming through the game as I would on for example a game like Fight Night.

2.69 KD is at around prestige 6 in Black Ops 1 for the record (only playing HC TDM). It's low enough on Black Ops 2 because I was playing HC CTF, which I played objectively.

Scrabble? That's knowing words, and going off of letters u pick out.. but yeah i get where ur comin from but theres a lot more personality to it, in person u can bluff people make it seem as though u are focused on one spot then switch the setting quick asl. Even looking at a piece on the board can make your opponenets time run out just because he's trying to fimd what ur looking at

Sacrifice a queen for checkmate, or three pieces for checkmate.. Its all about scheming which comes from the person

I wasn't saying Scrabble is more or less than Chess btw.

But "thats knowing words" is like saying Chess is "moving stuff".

[MAN DOWN]

Knowing is your foundation, moving is an action

[Hubert Cumberdale]

You also have to move the words into place in Scrabble :D

[MAN DOWN]

So ur hand moving a square to the board is hard huh lol there's no strategy there. But shiiiiit be safe bro.

[Subreal]

the first problem all of you have is thinking pub matches kdr mean anything in CoD at all.. hit up gamebattles

[Hubert Cumberdale]

^I could never find a team that played HC CTF.

[NOBLE]

If you don't think chess requires that much strategy, chances are you are probably not that good in chess. Trust me, I once thought the same thing when I first started learning. The more you learn, the deeper the rabbit hole goes. It requires even more strategy the better you are and the stronger your opponent.

[Vegeta]

UnEtHiCaL u just cant play chess bro :D
