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.

Great course! Vadim is really such a good teacher. The format of these lessons is also a lot of fun with the holiday theme and the humor. Still quite hard for me in some places.
very nice
nice course
I really enjoyed the course and hope there will be more like it in the future!
there are some errors at the end of the course when i couldn't do the quizzes in the lesson but overall this is a good course for kyu player to improve their games
Very enjoyable course — rich in knowledge and hands‑on practice, all brought together in a single package and immersed in strong cultural themes and references. Also, that darth vader reference at when not to inVADE, not to join them, was awesome. Thanks a lot and may the sente be with you.
identifying mistakes is very important so that we can make fewer of them. great coverage of topics.
Funny, engaging, metaphoric, helpful, grounding.
Highly recommended!
Course is great. I personally do not like the cartoon figure, but this is just personal taste and does not change the positive rating at all
Easy to understand and apply, fun to watch, deep insights hidden in little jokes. Great content! Thank you
Once of the most helpful courses I've taken. I think it really started to solidify basic ideas like direction of play and finding multi purpose moves. Definitely one I'll come back to watch again. And I'm enjoying looking back over my games from the start of this year with better perspective and noticing many of the mistakes covered in this course!
great and useful course thx
A really helpfull course, it helps you understand very common mistakes thet you make Thanks a lot
Probably the most practical course I have taken. It focuses on strategic evaluations and gives very useful analysis on the reasons that explain the value of possible choices. The supporting quizzes provide examples of how and why to evaluate positions.
A really good and helpful course!
Very useful course, I'll restart it again from time to time. And humorous 🙂
What a good course!!!!!!
Really great to review these pitfalls
Great course. The nutcracker is the inside voice we all have urging us to make mistakes, and it’s very useful to see how Vadim responds to it.
