In this video, I compete in the 2022 Yearly Rapid Arena on lichess.org. For this tournament, I decided to activate Zen Mode which hides my opponent’s username and rating. This made it so I wouldn’t know if I was playing a strong grandmaster or a complete beginner and turned every game into a Guess-The-Elo challenge. Timestamps below!
