What do you make of this?

For lessons, as well as threads about specific moves, and anything else worth studying.

I am provably the worst person at this, but if I had to guess, I'd say
low dan. I'd say 1d just to have a specific number.
Someday I want to be strong enough to earn KGS[-].

I think they are better than me. There weren't any shocking moves though. So maybe 3-6d.
That which can be destroyed by the truth should be.

By browsing quickly through the game, to me it has the feel of amateur dan player's game.

they strike me as mid-high dans, but I wouldn't be surprised if it were a pro game either.

Some good moves, some bad moves. But not too weak.

I guess...not stronger than 1d, not weaker than 4k.

Mid dan. Probably blitz.

Hmmmm they know some cool josekis, I think up to move 50 or something the opening was flawless.
In the middle game there are some moves that I dont understand, which does either mean they are 2-3dan or they are pro...
f.e. I don't know if it is really bigger to play endgame firstline hane moves rather than deter black from playing F12 which looks really big to me.

To say something different than anybody I'll go with some chinese pro because of the 7.5 komi.

Interesting! Can you give some examples?
