Chessable The Method of Quick Development By IM Ekaterina Atalik Video Course

However, when it comes to actually gaining that dynamic advantage and converting it into a full point, most club players fall terribly short.

But that’s why you’ll love having Ekaterina as your instructor.

You see, Ekaterina is a dashing tactical player with an excellent command of piece play and rapid development.

Her fast-paced, dynamic playstyle was key to her winning the European Individual Women’s Chess Championship (2006) and the Turkish Women’s Chess Championship (2008, 2016, 2018, 2020 and 2021 with a score 6.5/7).

And in her first ever Chessable course, she breaks down her mastery of piece play and development into…

Simple Techniques For Building
A Decisive Numbers Advantage
Right Out Of The Opening

Inside The Method of Quick Development, you’ll learn about:

💥 Tempo-gaining moves that bring more of your pieces into play, while the opponent is busy defending against your threats. Gain enough tempo, and your attack virtually plays itself.

💥 How to dismantle enemy defenses with a timely pawn sacrifice — so your ready-to-strike pieces can infiltrate the weaknesses.

💥 The one mistake even World Champions make, which drags them into a tactical slugfest they’re sure to lose. PLUS, how to recognize and punish this error in your games.

💥 What you must do to turn ill-timed aggression on its head and seize the momentum yourself.

💥 The critical difference between a developed piece and an active piece. One has the potential to create threats and fight for the initiative — while the other only looks good on paper.

💥 How to accelerate your attack by recapturing the right way.

💥 Second-guessing whether you should start attacking or quietly build up your position? The simple counting technique in chapter five shows you the right way in an instant.

But that’s not all.

You’ll also learn how to keep your king safe, even after you’ve lost castling rights. You’ll know when to ditch basic opening principles in exchange for a decisive numbers advantage.

You’ll be given a simple technique to undermine enemy pawn chains and unleash your sleeping rooks at the same time.

You’ll learn how to zero-in on vulnerable bishops… so you can exploit them and pull farther ahead in the development department.
