DavyJonesexpected
DavyJonesthe plan is that at some point in time
DavyJonesyou start moving pieces and suddenly there's discovered attack from rook
DavyJonesi actually think that your playing has improved tremendously
DavyJoneseven if it might not seem like that at first glance
pn2206Has it really?
DavyJonesyup
DavyJonesi thought from the last game
DavyJonesyou knew to develop
DavyJonesand knew which pieces were attacking and which pieces were defending
DavyJonesi took advantage of the overall strategy
DavyJonesbut that's something you'll figure out as you play more
pn2206perhaps it has improved a little
DavyJonesgg alfieri
Alfierigg
DavyJones@pn i actually think you could start looking bit deeply into which kind of rough game plan you wanna pursue
DavyJonesopposing rook's all about exchanging major pieces and then making good use of own castle's strength against drops to win the game
JojoSmith12gg
DavyJonesthird file's a bit of a double edge sword but it has many many variations
pn2206that was super close jojo
DavyJonescentral is offense personified
JojoSmith12yea i got nervous
JojoSmith12did i improve?
pn2206Definitely
DavyJones4th file is the most common style of ranging rook atm
JojoSmith12nice!!
pn2206Davy, where do I look at some characteristics of openings
DavyJonesehhhh
DavyJonesashamed to say
DavyJoneswikipedia lol
DavyJonesbut i'm also learning of the key ideas atm
pn2206that was one answer I was not expecting lol
DavyJonescause not all the ideas are apparent at first glance
DavyJonesand theres a huge lack of eng material
DavyJonestraditional third file rook here we go
pn2206ngl I just try to move my pieces hoping not to make a blunder
DavyJonesdouble ranging rook games are scary
DavyJonesit's scary for me as well
DavyJonessince there's really no safe place for the king go to
DavyJonescan't really castle since that's where you're attacking from
pn2206its scary cause I have no idea what double ranging rook actually means lol
DavyJonescan't really go the other side since that's where the battle is taking palce
DavyJonesdouble ranging rook = we've both opted for ranging rook
pn2206I'm just using up too much time thinking :/. I'm so used to rapid lol
DavyJonesngl that could have gone either way if there was byoyomi
DavyJonesyeah i really hope that these arenas
DavyJonescould have byoyomi

DavyJonesto avoid getting caught by trap 1
JojoSmith12ahh
DavyJonesunfortunately you're one move late
