Chess Strategy for Club Players: The Atalik Master Method

Atalik’s All-around Guide For Club Players – The Atalik Method

IM Ekaterina Atalik

The game of chess is usually broken down into 3 distinct stages – the opening, middlegame, and endgame. To become a strong player, you need to master all 3. After all, getting an advantage out of the opening is no use if you can’t convert it in the endgame.

In this superb 15-hour chess strategy training program, IM Ekaterina Atalik, one of the world’s top 30 female players, reveals her method for improving play in each of these stages.

  • Follow the 3 key opening principles – but not dogmatically.
  • Know your terrain in the most essential pawn structures and find a plan in any middlegame position.
  • Acquire grandmaster-level knowledge of theoretical endgames.

IM Atalik leaves no stone unturned in improving your game. The insights and advice contained in the Ekaterina Atalik Method will save you from years of hit-and-miss learning and give you powerful ideas and training methods you can put into practice right away.
