The Endgame Academy Vol.1: Checkmate & pawn endgames
From Mating with a queen; a rook; two bishops; a knight and a bishop; to the basics of pawn endgames – here you will gain the necessary know-how to turn your endgame advantages into victories!
This first volume of his endgame series can be accomplished without any previous knowledge, but will also be a challenge for club players. The 28 sub-chapters range from the basics of matesetting (with queen or with 2 bishops) to the extensive and in-depth fundamentals of pawn endgames (square rule, key squares, marginal pawns, passed pawns, blocked pawns, breakthroughs, endgames on one wing and much more).
Karsten Müller presents each topic in detail in the video. You can enhance your knowledge with interactive exercise modules, teaching examples and exercises. This comprehensive course is varied, entertaining, and guarantees you a solid endgame knowledge after successful study, which is the basis for victory at the board.
