What an enjoyable course! All concepts were beautifully explained.
I learned a lot from it
I enjoyed the course. It has a lot of good, practical information I've been able to apply immediately in my latest games and my game reviews. Having the 5 tiers in mind, helps keep me focused and better able to select solid, big moves consistently. I especially liked the section on urgent before big moves; this idea will help in all stages of the game.
Efficient and clear. Really good. It gives the bases and also ideas to explore later.
Really great course to follow ! Explanation are clear and complete, after this course we definitely want to go further !
Great course. Vadim is the man
Muy bueno, cubre las bases de la apertura, es dinámica y simple de internet, aunque complicado de llevar a la práctica, es un curso que retomaré en el futuro, aunque en mis partidas he notado un mejor resultado en cuanto a la fortaleza de la apertura para el medio juego.
good job, sometimes i would like to be able to play the quizzes until the end when i´m wrong so that i understand why i´m wrong.
Excellent !
supergood course 🙂
My understanding of the opening has become so much broader. I have been able to wire my thinking into the fundamental principles and most importantly ensuring I have a stable base before attacking. I highly recommend this course, as it has helped me jump from 19kyu to 13kyu in 1 week. Thank you Go Magic Sensei.
Great for those who want to get an idea about what a good opening should be like. This course was very informative for me.
Very fun course! It got me really thinking about the importance of sente, as well as how to improvise based on the situation on the board as it evolves. It have me the confidence to break away somewhat from the standard openings my teacher is so fond of, which seems to be working well so far in one of my games against a more advanced student.
Great introduction to the opening!
This course provides very useful insights into opening the game. Several variations are demonstrated, including very interesting and advanced openings like 3 star opening and the black hole. It's not about reproducing these specific openings, it's all about understanding them correctly
Superb opening course. Even easier to grasp the foundational of opening theory then the beloved books like Opening Theory Made Easy (by Hideo Otake), Dwyrin's How to Open Go and much more so compared to In the Beginning (by Ikuro Ishigure). The final videos on history of openings and odd opening (like Black Hole) were absolutely breath taking in their delivery of concepts.
A lot of valuable informations
Educational and helpful.
I like the quizzes, because I always think I understood perfectly what Vadim explained so nicely, but then I see that I have to try it out for myself and practise. Great course with easy to follow explanations.
Fantastic course. It teaches all the principles in a way that prevents from getting attached to them, keeping the game of Go dynamic and alive. You learn to think for yourselves as well as relying on principles when you are lost. I highly recommend this course.
