In my perspective, recent div.1 contests (maybe also include div.2) are much harder than before in codeforces.↵
↵
In round 743 (div.1), problem A is only 1800 while problem B is 2500, then C is 2700, such a huge gap.↵
↵
In round 745 (div.1), problem A is 1700, problem C is 2200 while problem B is 2600 and problem D is 2900.↵
↵
If you participate in (or virtual participate in) these two contests, I think you must agree that they're much harder than previous contests. I don't think it's a coincidence, though problems are always getting harder though time lol↵
↵
On AtCoder, ARC has returned and ABC has added more problems which means the difficulty is increased.↵
↵
So maybe codeforces are started to change? I think now the difficulty of div.1 is more close to AGC, but I'm no so sure.↵
↵
I'm glad to hear your ideas ^_^↵
↵
btw, i hope someone could tell me some methods to train to deal with recent problems, they're hard and focus more on thinking which i'm not so used to ;)
