Mastering Chess Strategy Vol.2 - Take your piece play to the next level!
by Robert Ris
After laying the foundation in Volume 1, it's time to dive deeper into key strategic concepts that will elevate your middlegame play. But don't expect long theoretical explanations — this course is all about active learning!
Which pieces are good, which are bad, and what can you do about it? Master this principle with this video course!
Get ready to analyse, evaluate, and make real decisions, just like in a practical game.At the heart of this course lies a fundamental yet formidable question: Which pieces are good, which are bad, and what can you do about it? By mastering this principle, you'll learn to solve complex middlegame positions with clarity and confidence.
What you'll learn – a structured approach to piece play: • Improve your worst piece – identify and activate underperforming pieces to maximise their potential. • Exchanging pieces – learn when to trade, and when to keep key pieces for maximum impact. • King safety – understand how piece activity directly affects your king's security. • Pieces out of play – recognise misplaced pieces and find ways to bring them back into action.
Throughout the course, you'll face interactive challenges that put your strategic thinking to the test. Many examples include multiple questions, making the learning process more dynamic and reinforcing key concepts at every step.
