MC_BlueScouter

👋 Welcome to the Dojo!

I'm BlueScouter from Texas.

When I'm not on the board, you'll usually find me training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, spending time with my dogs, or building something new for the stream. I mostly stream chess with some variety streaming with the community.

🎯 My Chess Philosophy

Play to improve.
Learn from your mistakes.
Never let your rating determine whether you're having fun.

Whether you're brand new to chess or a seasoned player, you're welcome here.

Chess for Players Who Love to Laugh, Learn, and Blunder to Greatness!
