It often happens that playing ko is like spinning a roulette wheel — you never know what result to expect. Sometimes it miraculously saves you a lost game, other times it kills one of your groups. In this course we’ll learn all about preparing for ko, playing it at the right time and using the right ko threats. By the end you will have a good grasp of ko fundamentals that will turn ko into a useful and formidable tool in your Go inventory.
Suitable for: 10–1 kyu. For those who are very familiar with the basics of Go.

Really useful, as kos are essential but hard to understand or find at lower levels. Great presentation and quizzes too.
great course
Huge thanks to Stanisław and go magic. This course was something I didn't know if I wanted to do, but now I can say that I definitely needed this. <3
Very helpful! I feel much more confident in a ko fight
So cool
Great course on a key concept to upgrade our go game. Looking forward to be applying it in my games!
It is a good course. I know better how to offer ko or provoking ko to win, Interesting thing, I just win a game after finishing this courses by using ko
The course lives up to its declared objective. It demystifies the concept of ko with easy and relatable examples. Very well done
Great lesson and contents
props to the video producer 😁
Great lesson, didn't think I would enjoy it going into it, since ko always feels like it happens randomly, but the course kept it's promise of demystifying the concept of ko. I like this one as much as the art of attachment & fearless invasions, if not more
Very interesting topic. Stanisław is a very good pedagogue and enjoyable to listen to.
Very informative, need to watch this a few time again!
a good course. I need to practice
Great course. I'm going to rewatch it later!
Thank you so much fot this great course. I understand a bit more how to provoke a ko and how to prepare it. I'm going to rewatch it some time soon because on the first try it was too long for me. I finished it step by step. One video at a session.
Epic!
Very good overview of the most important ko principles. The biggest chunk of the course is aimed at DDK to mid-SDK (EGF) players, but the later chapters have some very interesting inspiration on preparing for ko threats and some of the more common variations were very nice to see in contest that will be appreciated by higher level players as well.
Ko's are (at least for me) quite a difficult part of the game. This course does a lot to lay out all the things one needs to think about: when to fight a ko, how to fight it, how to rate ko-threats, etc. On the whole, it is very comprehensive. Loses one star, only because of some errors in the quiz, and and some parts of the quiz that could be better explained.
Ko is a topic that is difficult to write about and to teach, but this course does it very well, and I even learned some new ways to handle ko which I will try to apply to my games
