How to navigate from the opening to the middle game? Let's learn!
(1)

Every move counts in a game of Go, but some moves more then others. And there is a frame of moves that often go unnoticed. This frame stretches for only ten moves or so, but they can shift the entire flow of a game — alter the very turn of the heavens, as it were.

These moves consist of the edge between the civilized opening and the wild wild west that is the middle game of Go. Almost immaterial to the untrained eye, command over this short sequence of stones can give you the power to wrangle an unruly game back under control or give you a large lead as you gallop ahead into the next frontier!

In this course we will give you the tools to identify when this gap begins and ends and increase your awareness of the board position to boldly use this new know-how to transfer from opening tactics to middle scouting and fighting. Together, lets take our first step past the opening edge and venture into the middle game!

Suitable for: 14–5 kyu

At the moment, the first 5 lessons are ready. The approximate release date of the course is November 2024.

Great start to a great course! I really like the Wild Wild West analogy! I think the examples are well chosen. The complex concept of the middle game is made easy to understand. I can't wait to see the rest of the course!
