Approaches to Attack

Excuse me:
I hav been playing with Robot lv2 for a while. I know that it is a hard engine, but it seems as if I do not put enough pressure on it it would not blunder at all. The castles I end up dealing with in middle-game are quite difficult as I see no way to break through. Please share with me some methods of breakthrough. Thank you.
Please look at some of my games for reference. By the way, I don't know the correct way to yagura but I think I could figure this out eventually.

hello, Vasenko
I might be able to give you some help; though, I am by no means a professional player,
and I was kinda hoping that a more capable player would have offered you some assistance by now
(if one has done so by private message, feel free to ignore this post)

your request for help in regards to:
"methods of breakthrough" & "the correct way to yagura" are good and reasonable things to ask about,
however due to the difficulty of this question, my assistance would be to first improve on some other areas of your game
before handling your request

if you'r fine with getting help from me, considering that I can only give limited help and that I'l take time to get back to you with your request, then please let me know and I will try to help you where I can

Thank you, any advice would be appreciated. I was just looking for some simple words of advice as I struggle to find any objective in the middle game

that's fair, we'l get there soon enough so no worries

not sure if you have played against a lvl 1 bot yet, but I believe sometimes you need to take a step back before you can advance. however, when you play against a lvl 1 bot, make no request for take backs/undo. you should do fine

next, go back to lvl 2; with the following changes:
you may only request for 1-2 take backs/undo at most, so you must ration those take backs for serious blunders
also, do what you can to complete the game. I know that you'r stuck on this at the moment, not knowing how to attack yet; but I need you to view this as a puzzle. you'l fail to get it right the first few times, that's ok. keep going

after this, try if you can to have a game with a fellow player (ideally, one that isn't too strong)
if you cannot find one, you can have a game with me if you so wish
start the game saying something like: good luck, glhf, yoroshiku onegaishimasu, let's do our best (etc)
*good etiquette is important

please give an update when you have completed these tasks

I don't always win against the level 2 bot but I win more than I lose against it and sometimes it completely self-destructs early on like this lol lishogi.org/fK8FRCKtw0l7

you'r quite right, sometimes we are our own worst enemy.
everyone makes mistakes; though it is good to remember that sometimes we can recover from them.

wish you the best with your next game
