Can low iq or those with avg intelligence learn and be good at chess?

[RickyDiBiase]

Isnt chess just memorizing a bunch of plays?

Pretty much. Its repetition and memorization

 

[cyndaquil]

I'd rather play Yugioh

 

[BrothaZay]

Yeah. Im gettin raped. Chinese breh put it it on me. Im playing like checkers. Just tryin to get my pawn across the board to upgrade. I see that may not be the best strategy

 

[BaggerofTea]

intelligence is made up so many different things.


Every compotent chess player I have known in my life has had some sense.

 

[ThatTruth777]

Yeah it will just take you longer until you can make sense of it

IQ not a benchmark for intelligence.

intelligence is how efficiently you process info, not how much info you retain.

IQ is a benchmark albeit not the only one.

 

[Magic Mulatto]

Most of us low-IQ cats can’t even play checkers, let alone chess…

I started to self teach a couple years ago, learning what each piece does etc, even joined the chess sub reddit but, work life and studying kinda got in the way. Been telling myself recently I wanna get back to learning for sure. Maybe this thread is a sign . Any tips for a beginner ?

I do see why ppl love this game. But it I think it was invented by gays or feminists. The queen got to much power. Then pawns can change genders. Very frustrating.

you playing timed games? if so i'll play you as long as it's 3 min or under. i like the 1 min games but i'll play 3 min. any longer than that and i get frustrated.

Sorry.. anybody can play chess. And you do NOT have to be a genius to play. But if this is how you describe the game you are definitely a bad chess player

I'm on the lower percentile of avg intelligence and never learnt it or gambling games.

gotta add this classic clip for thread entertainment.

Im playing 10min gms. The YouTube tips says those short games will make you worse. Take ya time.

Game is addictive. It be all quiet and I make a move and some b1tch flies the whole board and take me out. Its like a warzone sometimes.
