If you’ve never heard of Huang Longshi, then… it’s not surprising at all. He lived in 17th century China and it was the Japanese players who ruled in the world of Go at the time. However his contemporaries described him as a heavenly spirit turned human, and Go Seigen, the greatest player of the 20th century, believed that Huang Longshi would be at least 13 dan if he were alive today! Is that merely an overstatement? Maybe the games of this ancient master reviewed under the magnifying lens of modern computer programs will help shed some light on this mystery…
In the free lesson “Treasure Chest” you will find all the games of Huang Longshi in SGF format, as well as the legendary collection of endgame problems “Yi Kuo” that has not been published anywhere before.
Suitable for: 8k–9d. This is a historical course, so it may be interesting to all players regardless of their strength.
These games are WILD, MAN! The course also comes with a good heap of extra material including a huge SGF trove of Longshi's Endgame Go Problems... some of which you will see in GoMagic's Skill Tree. Vadim, my guy, you have such a concise & clear game commentary, fingers crossed for many more years of Magic. SideNote:Xingyou's fluctuations of reading brilliance during game is interesting in itself
