The last kyu-level barriers
(64)

We have completed a huge task of searching and choosing the absolute best (worst?) mistakes that secretly plague most kyu players’ games. Tactical mistakes, strategic mistakes, psychological mistakes — this course will help you get rid of possibly the last remaining shackles that slow you down on your way to 1 dan.

This is a direct sequel to the course Typical Mistakes That Wouldn’t Let Us Get Better.

Suitable for: 10–1 kyu

A huge thanks to: Alexander Dinerstein for helping with examples for the course and Marina Ismail-Akhunova for designing the Nutcracker.

Very well made course, you can tell that a lot of thought and care went into this one. Also, I really liked the interactive interjections during the videos, to check your understanding.

HUGE help, my games immediately improved after watching this entire thing. Also introduced me to a lot of ideas that were strong in the game, but helped me appreciate go in new ways too. This is a must watch course.

Great course, replay ability and for anyone looking to move towards the Dan level This has been a immense help after not playing for 10 years to get back into it, daily go problems and the mistake videos 1 and 2 and have improved by 2 stones in 1 month from 7kyu to 5 kyu, highly recommended.

Another great course! Second run, still struggling implementing all that is said here into my games 🙂

Very useful and eye-opening. Takes you to deeper understanding of the game. Great end to the intermediate courses

Great insights! A little uncomfortable to identify with Nutcracker but a path away from nuttiness is made clear. How easy it is to prematurely slip into panic mode with a local squabble when one can coolly play with greater profit elsewhere. Thanks Vadim for the cool advice as well as your cool vibe--makes learning this stuff much easier.

Very good, useful, and understandable lectures. The quizzes were quite good, though even more questions would increase the benefits.

I really like the concrete examples and questions. An improvement suggestion is to have a set of problems, connected to the course, so that you could easily rehearse the course content, through problem solving. But my overall evaluation is: World class! Thanks!

Just finished it the first time. Definitely worth doing it again several times. Applying all of this requires practice.

The toughest course so far... Act 1 was so straight forward and seemed a bit simple. But Act 2 was definitely a lot tougher and something I'll have to revisit a few times to really let the lessons sink in.

Looking over the content list, I wasn't expecting much, but as always, GM has a way of reaching many skill lvls in their vids. Most of this course is about thinking before you play & opponent's reaction. The Aji lesson is a good breach into the Probing&Attachment courses. Lssn lengths are thicc so lots of thorough content. Also, the Nutcracker(odd mascot choice) is growing on me & got a few laughs

Definitely some useful things in this course, which I will try to internalise and then use in my games. On the whole, very good, with the typical high quality production that we've come to know and expect from the Go Magic team.
