Excellent !
I'm only a couple weeks into my Go journey - I'm so grateful I found Go Magic. Thanks for the courses, Vadim.
Excellent continuation of the 13x13 one.
This is an excellent course for those who want to start playing on a 19x19 board.
I have finally started to move on from 13x13 and I am improving a lot thanks to your in-depth videos and quizzes. You are the best sensei.
Great way to explain the principles of the game! I really appreciate the humorous way, the lessons... Thanks Vadim!
Gotta love the way Vadim explains everything, this course was amazing! everything is perfectly explained, looking forward to take my next course once I feel confident with all these concepts
Awesome lessons for a beginner like me. I am so grateful that you created this website and recorded all those videos. Bless you :pray:
Thx rly helped me a lot
Buenísimo, bastante útil para empezar a entender la dirección del juego.
Seems to me, it starts easy, but it become hard! Life and death 🖤💀, Tactical fighting ⚔️🤼, you need to follow it! ✅🔥
The course was designed very well. The interactive quizzes helped reinforce the video lessons. I learned a lot and am a much better player.
The course itself was great, albeit a big ramp up in difficulty from the previous ones. My only critique is with the quiz interface itself. It would be great if there was an optional setting to confirm your moves. Now that there are whole board and longer problems, it's much easier to miss click if using a smartphone. I lost quite a few points that way ☹️
The part about the nakade shapes and seki was eye-opening! I wouldn't have thought it's possible to live in some on those examples! The quiz questions are good and some are quite challenging! I scored 84%
It is beneficial for winning games, and now I've won games by more than 100 points!
Super
Good introduction to the basics of go on a 19x19 board
This is a good introduction to the fundamentals of Go
That was a great course teaching many fundamentals in easy digestable chunks. If I have to improve on some of the quizzes - having more explanation why the wrong answer is wrong would be great. There were in only a few places but it was pretty educational. In any case keep up the good work!
What I would sometimes like to see in some puzzles is a better explanation of why this particular “one” move is bad.
