Chip in piston edge and some carbon is all that shows me.

Could be many reasons.   

No basics given. Getting - Spark, Fuel and have good Compression, all needed.

GL troubleshooting.

How about some pictures from the sides and also of the cylinder bore. Which saw is it?
But, over here in India we see a lot of damage to the piston from the big end getting burner from over revving, the needles come off and get sucked up into the combustion chamber. Usually some damage will also be seen between the rings on the flywheel side too..
But even in this picture the big end looks over heated.
Over revs from underload usually blunt chain
