THE best training ratio?

@tpr said ^

"how long for fide?"

  • If you have a FIDE rating and are under 20 age, then you have K = 40.
    At K = 40 you gain +20 per win against a peer.
    So depending on your present FIDE rating it can take the according number of games.
    If you do not yet have a FIDE rating, then 2 tournaments suffice to reach a rating like your strength.

i meant how long does will it take to reach that kind of skill level if my lichess peak classical is 2033

"how long does will it take to reach that kind of skill level"

  • 200 hours should suffice to reach the skill level.
    Actually realizing the FIDE rating may require 2-3 FIDE tournaments.

"my lichess peak classical is 2033"

  • Your actual lichess classical is 1841 and your rapid 1680.

"i said peak"

  • Peak or bottom does not matter, it is actual rating. You need consistency.

"i barely play rapid"

  • Last week you played 10+0 and also blitz & bullet.

It is one problem with one classical game per week that you do not get that much feedback on how you are doing with your training.
Your last classical and rapid games are losses.
Analyze them thoroughly and learn from your mistakes.

"i will play two rapid /blitz games a week along with one classical"

  • Stay away from blitz, it breeds bad habits: playing too fast and too shallow.
    15+10 rapid is good, should take 50 minutes to play and 50 minutes to analyze in case of a loss.
    Classical is better, as it is closer to FIDE classical, but you have only time for one per week.

Take your last classical 25+10 game: you lose with 24 useless minutes on your clock i.e. you played too fast.

Two weeks ago you play a 60+45 game and you end it with 60 useless minutes on your clock.
You played too fast, as if it were 0+45.
Besides, why do you offer a draw? This is no drawing position. There is still play.
