Mastering core strategies and techniques

(199)

Welcome to the updated “Fundamentals of Go on 13×13” course.

This course is the perfect starting point for beginners who have just learned the rules of Go and are looking to understand the basics of strategy and tactics on a 13×13 board. It’s an essential foundation that will also prepare you for playing on the more complex 19×19 board.

Once you’re comfortable with the material in this course, we recommend progressing to the more advanced Deeper into the game of Go on 19×19, which is the final course of our elementary trilogy designed to guide you from not knowing the rules to mastering the fundamentals and reaching a solid 12-10 kyu level.

Don’t forget to check out our beginner’s guide for more helpful tips and information.

The video lessons (without quizzes) are freely available on our YouTube channel.

You can also purchase the full course with quizzes using GM coins in the Store.

Another excellent course from Vadim! When I took the original course a couple months ago I struggled with some of the endgame problems. The remaster was all the motivation I needed to retake it, and It's nice to see how much I've improved since then (99% this time around 😁)

Excellent instruction at a pace that is slow enough but not too slow. 🙂

A good continuation on the free one and luckily purchasable with coins, wish the next one could have been bought with coins as well for a good starter trilogy.
