How do I play in an attacking manner? I know it sounds silly, but whenever I play, I am usually on the defensive. My opponents attack, forcing me into a corner, and usually won. The few times I attack, the opponent easily rebuffs my attacks, since I often lose control of the situation trying to attack.
Plus, attacking moves do not come obviously to my mind. I find that my opponents usually move in a different manner than I expect them to.
In short, I'm usually good at tactics, but rather less so at strategy.
I'd like some advice.
I played black. The game was over in two hours. I would like anyone's opinion on my game. `[Event "Let's Play!"] [Site " Chess.com"] [Date "Jun 19, 2017"] [White "PATELAKSHAY"] [Black "JoshuaFischer007"] [Result "1-0"] [WhiteElo "1354"] [BlackElo "793"] [TimeControl "1 in 1 day"] [Termination "PATELAKSHAY won by checkmate"] 1. e4 e5 2.
