🏆 Shortlisted for Best Strategy Course of 2022 🏆
A plan is everything- do you know how to formulate one?
Knowing how to spot tactics and some opening knowledge will take you far, but what happens when you leave book and there are no tactics on the board?
That's where you should start devising a strategy. It can be hard to know how to devise a plan without knowledge of the fundamentals, and that's exactly what this course aims to teach you.
Fundamentals of Chess Strategy by GM Georg Meier teaches you 3 fundamental building blocks of creating a strategy, through detailed examples from the masters of strategy.
Here's a peek inside:
♚ The concept of a "weak king" and how to exploit your opponent's weak king. Learn how to ‘win the attacking race’ when you have a weak king, create invincible outposts for your knights to attack the enemy king, and more
♚ Pawn weaknesses- exploring the permanent nature of pawn moves. Relegate your opponent's pieces to the defense of doubled pawns, improve the positioning of your weak pieces by exploiting the holes left by pawn moves, and more.
♚ How to convert a winning position- learn techniques to stop your opponent from complicating the game and staging a comeback, including advantageous piece trades, prophylactic pawn moves, and more
Crafted by a German Champion
The author, GM Georg Meier, knows a thing or two about what it takes to win at chess. He’s won the Under-16 German chess championship and helped the German national team win the European Team Championship.
