Instantly Recognize Opportunities To
Swipe An Extra Pawn Or Piece
Sure, checkmate ends the game.
But powering through defenders and catching the enemy king is easier when you have superior numbers.
So let’s grab that extra pawn, extra exchange, or extra piece first, shall we? Inside, Jordan will show you how to:
⚔️ Fork multiple targets in a single stroke, forcing the opponent to give up one of their own.
⚔️ Use defense for offense to deliver checkmate, or secure extra material.
⚔️ Pin and skewer enemy pieces lined up in a rank, file, or diagonal.
⚔️ Unmask direct hits with discovered attacks and its nastier, near-indefensible versions — the discovered check and discovered double-check.
⚔️ Take out key defenders, and pick off the piece they left behind.
⚔️ Promote your pawn to gain a new queen, or pressure the opponent to give up material to stop it.
⚔️ Deal the maximum damage with desperado pieces that are about to drop anyway.
⚔️ And neutralize the opponent’s material advantage with stalemates and perpetual checks.
