Answers: How can I improve my chess rating if I am under 800?

• chess opening strategy
• piece development
• pawn structure
• chess tactics
• avoiding pre-moves

What it concludes

• Players rated under 800 should play 10 or 15 minute rapid games instead of 5+5 blitz games to have more time to think.
• Central pawns should be developed first, followed by knights, bishops, castling, and finally queens and rooks.
• Leaving the king in the center is a major mistake that leads to vulnerability.
• Placing a queen on the same diagonal or file as an opponent's rook or bishop creates tactical vulnerabilities and risks being attacked by forks.
