Tighten up your game - train these tactics
You know the rules and some basic tactics and have some wins under your belt. You might be beating all the casuals… but now you want to level up further.
This is the course for you.
Beginner's Guide to Chess Tactics gives you a structured program of exercises to gradually bulk up your chess muscles.
It's all about tactics - the most important learning block in the game.
The course gives you 600+ exercises with more than 100 informational lines - and these aren't tactics that you'll see in any old tactics book -
all puzzles are original and new.
There are 27 chapters in this course covering the basics everyone should know as well as
specific tactical ideas that are underexposed in chess literature.
Some of what you'll learn inside:
🌟
Win your opponent's pieces by learning how to execute discovered attacks, pins, skewers, and eliminating defenders
🌟
Make dazzling sacrifices that work - lure your opponent's pieces by setting decoys and learn how to give the "Greek Gift"”
🌟
Learn defense mechanisms to create an impenetrable fortress - such as the concept of prophylaxis (anticipating your opponent's plans)
🌟
Tactical motifs under-taught in other courses - the deadly Qg4-Nf5 Trick, attacking a castled King, and the X-ray blockade
After ...g6, you win with the deadly Nh6+!
