Legend88. Playing against high dan amateur players gave so much material to study that we would be crazy not to look over the games he played as he ranked up. / godwyrin
as I love big moyo style (Cosmic style / San-Ren-Sei)... this game was very enyoable and good learning with by this excellent commentary and analysis. Keep up your good work, Battou ! :-) Tks.
So this looks like your first Legend88 upload, awesome. Before the Age of A.I., in 2014 I had been playing Go off and on for about 2 years as a DDK. These joseki are almost unrecognizable now.
I like to see this kind of games, when the only goal of our oponnent´s life is to invade everthing, and doesn´t work for him. And I love when I beat them =P
if the 2 stones get taken its worth very few points compared to the rest of the board. Also, this video is quite old. I just redid this game in much better quality here th-cam.com/video/J2qoXMbv4Vo/w-d-xo.html
It takes so much more courage to play like white here, you have to have "blind" faith that it will all turn out well. It does feel more rewarding though!
I'm, playing in the british open today and tomorrow, 3 games each day, i lost my first game because i went cosmic, the next 2 i tried to be more balanced and won both, let's see how it goes tomorrow.
Yeah, i think they're a bit common. These were glass stones, my real board videos from the last few months have featured upgraded stones and a much better camera so you can see this board is a bit beat up too ^^
dwyrin Thanks for the reply. I’ve just recently gotten back into Go and like your approach to analyzing the board. Wish I’d had you as a resource 30 years ago. I’m trying to impart your wisdom to the handful of beginners I’m working with in my gaming group. Check us out on FaceBook: Hiroshima Gamers & Go Players in Hiroshima.

Nice Analysis Dwyrin, as always. Thanks much.
This explanation is lovely. Like a story. I can appreciate it and learnt something though I am a beginner high double kit.
I failed to reach 2d this week and i think I have to go back to this series. Best go series of TH-cam
Wonderful to see more reviews on a real board. Thank you for sharing with us!
And that we can get our own without having other people to play with. We can just use it for game reviews and puzzles.

I love your lectures! Thank you very much! :-)
Thanks! It's my favourite episode in a while! ^_^
I really love your commentary stile 😃
never heard you use an evil voice before, i like it
Wow. Great analysis!
Yup. Just amazing. Every single game. So good! Shygost would love it.
Wow! Now thats an old reference!
More legend88 games showed on the real goban, please ;) Brilliant series.
I’ve been wanting to learn this board games
Nice vid! Thx

so strong ;)
New supporter lods
he is a pro? what country is he from and whats his rank?
❤️GO,
At 5:20, you wonder why black hane instead of cut. If cut, white can nobi down and capture 3 stones.
at 5:02, isnt that the only move for black? if black plays the move you mentioned cant white extend down towards the top?
Yeah, I was a little unclear in regards to what i meant. However since I'm covering it as a shorty, I'll just link the explain later
Can you recommend a board and Go Set that has 9x9, 13x13 and 19x19?
Well dont all 19×19 have 13×13 and 9×9 inside them?
6:09 I dont get it... what do you mean dont connect yet, too slow? Please explain.. I am a newbie relative to y'all.
if the 2 stones get taken its worth very few points compared to the rest of the board. Also, this video is quite old. I just redid this game in much better quality here th-cam.com/video/J2qoXMbv4Vo/w-d-xo.html
@@dwyrin I don't get why Black would choose not to connect there. The opportunity ends when White plays there next and ends the atari. .
Takemiya said : if one player have all the corners, White win !
Love that guy. Even some of his recent games are amazing.
So, you're saying you'll be reviewing Legend's games ... atnight? B)
It takes so much more courage to play like white here, you have to have "blind" faith that it will all turn out well. It does feel more rewarding though!
it takes knowledge and experience to play as white... no courage there. White knew he had total control of the game.
I agree; for a very strong player it's more straightforward. Not so for me though :)
Whenever I go cosmic style like white, I either get horribly crushed, or win by over 20 points. But white played so simple...
That's the key. We over-complicate so many things we do. Go is one of them.

Those look exactly like my bowl and stones (my boards darker and a little beat up).

Black should resign if one player has four corners - Go proverb
11:22 Why not atari the white stone? ~20kyu question by me
Then black atari other side, white takes, then gets his 3 captured.
I couldn't find the game starting tengen... any link ?
th-cam.com/video/CXJvE7vHX0k/w-d-xo.html i think this is what youre looking for
LOL I played like black today.
Who is Legend88??
