Ginger GM Simon Williams.
Are we painting a good enough picture of the perfect chess trainer?
Vladimir Vuković's iconic course is concerned primarily with teaching you one thing:
attacking the opponent's castled King.
It is a masterpiece in clear, precise instructions on how to bring the house crashing down, edited by GM John Nunn and given a thorough engine-check for 2020 by Chessable's FM Kamil Plichta. It is designed to train the tactical problems Vuković presents so you learn them motifs fast.
Now we've added GM Williams into the mix. After all, who better to teach it than the "GingerGM"?
Everyone knows Simon for his swashbuckling play and the fact he is just brilliant at explaining what's going on.
Simon, now an experienced Chessable author, is just the ideal person to guide you through The Art of Attack in Chess, teach you the concepts, and help you to master them.
Modern Chess is too much concerned with things like pawn structure. Forget it, checkmate ends the game.
- GM Nigel Short
Under the hood, Vukovic first reveals how to spot the preconditions necessary to launch an attack. These include:
🎨 control of the center;
🎨 prevention of counterplay on the side of the board;
🎨 proper posting of the attacker's pieces;
🎨 weakening the castled King's defenses.
Vukovic then goes deep into the timing of an assault - when to launch it, when not - and discusses when it's safe to castle.
Art Of Attack In Chess was a classic best-seller in print, now it is here on Chessable allowing you to learn it far more efficiently.Take up the option of Simon's video instruction and settle down to learn the art of attacking now. And remember, checkmate ends the game!
