Unleash Your Inner Attacker
Do you ever look at a grandmaster's game and think, "wow, how did they find that move?"
It may seem to the amateur player that top players create attacks out of nothing. But behind these displays of brilliance is actually
a methodical approach to laying the foundation for the attack.
Like war, in chess, you cannot just sit back and let things happen. Playing principled moves alone is not sufficient. If you want to win consistently, you must learn to be on the offensive.
How to Create Attacks takes you into the minds of elite players who launch effective assaults from the most serene positions, catching opponents by surprise and brutally bringing them to their knees.
Because even if you play your chosen opening to perfection, many times you won't get a huge advantage going into the middlegame. That's why it's important to identify the elements that go into launching an attack.
This course teaches you the considerations one must have in mind when mounting an attack. You will gradually learn to notice things on the board that many would consider trivial and how to magnify even a slight asymmetry in the position in your favor.
What you'll learn inside:
💥
Improve your intuition for when an attacking opportunity is present- by learning three guidelines that will improve your attacking sense in 90% of your games
💥
How to win the attacking race in an opposite-side castling battle- turning even the tamest openings into tactical battlefields and making sure you have the advantage in the ensuing fight
💥
The importance of hooks- assess when a pawn push will be successful by finding pawns or pieces your pawns can latch on to, opening up the position, and forcing your opponent to respond
💥
Provoke weaknesses in your opponent's position- rather than relying on your opponent to create weaknesses
