Idk why but everytime I reach 1600. I always have a loss streak that send me back to 1400. And that happens twice

[@Janto001]

Igor has the gift of making the complex seem easy. However, praxis proves that these principles hold substance if the student is tactically vigilant.
Igor would simply say to blunder check, make sure your opponent can’t respond with attacking moves to your own moves…

[@ReflectionOcean]

- Look for effective attacking moves first (1:55)
- If no attacks are available, use the principle of the least active piece to improve your position (4:18)
- Apply these strategies consistently, regardless of the position on the board (8:01)

[@user-ht3cl1pm6e]

I suggest : Bc7 attacking the black Rook (d8) forcing to move and leaving the square e6 for the white queen

[@Izuhara]

It looks like a nice move but don't think I'd work since the check can be defended easily. Plus, if you put your queen on e6, you'll lose your pawns.

[@nathanthenewbie8325]

thought the same but gave it up for Bxg7 ? taking the pawn, he can t take back as there is Qe7 check then the rook would be hanging

This is super helpful and makes a lot of sense. Can you practice this anywhere in the form of puzzles? Seems all chess puzzles are all tactical but I always get these positions and expect tactics to just jump out at me.
