Go Diagnostics: Test Your Skills (β)

A Go test is the quickest way to measure your problem-solving strength. Pick a test, solve a series of puzzles, and get an estimated rank in kyu/dan — together with a breakdown that shows exactly which skills hold you back.

How It Works

  • Each test is a series of Go problems covering several topics — life and death, tesuji, endgame and more.
  • At the end you get an estimated puzzle rank with a confidence range, plus per-skill results highlighting your strongest and weakest areas.
  • Each problem in a test costs one energy (your balance is shown in the Stats panel above).
  • Keep in mind: your estimated puzzle rank may differ from your actual playing rank — solving and playing are related but separate skills.
