Rank - first comments

Paths: <= Handicap =>   ·   <= Rank =>
  Difficulty: Beginner  

The difference of ranks determines handicap.

To achieve well balanced matches discover and communicate your real level of Go experience to your next opponent, as fairly as you are able to.

As a beginner, assume your initial rank is between 30 and 20 kyu. Adjust both upwards and downwards according to your results against other players with established / acknowledged ranks.


See rank - worldwide comparison for local differences of rank systems.
