There are too many 800 rated problems (like 700) and I'm overwhelmed just by the sheer amount and also find it lethargic to move from 800 to then 1500. So I'm thinking of starting from 1500 oldest problems to the newest and then do the same for [1600..2200]. wish me luck guys

Hello, Unfortunately, I have not been very consistent with practice on codeforces. Is giving virtual contests almost everyday and then upsolving be a good idea to improve my problem solving? Thanks

Also, I plan on upsolving or at least watch video tutorials of the problems that I couldn't solve upto Problem E of Div 2. Is it a good idea?

Many high rated users on codeforces have advised me to solve problems which are higher than my rating. https://clist.by/ has a great "luck' parameter. If the luck factor equals 50%, then it means the rating of the problem equals your rating. Which range should I set the luck parameter to when solving problems? (like from 40 to 50, 30 to 40 or something like that)
