So I am on lichess in the 700es range and I continue to have these players as opponents who early on attack really aggressively.They must have some success with this (element of surprise I guess), but if I look at the stockfish analysis there moves arent so smart. (difficult enough for me to fend off though). I sometimes feel a little dumb, though because it can be quite hard to find out how to stop their attacksโ€ฆ

Itโ€™s a strategy based on the assumption the opponent will blunder. After a certain level blunders become rare, so aggressive play just leads to a poor position.
