Opening Repertoire

Specialise in What You Love! Research shows that masters often specialise in specific openings, so they can consistently reach positions they are comfortable with and excel at. This set of specialised openings is called an opening repertoire. Whether you're a fan of aggressive attacks or solid defences, understanding opening theories deeply will help you improve your game. On this website, you can find the openings that lead to positions you love, so you can build a robust opening repertoire that maximises your strengths, and prepare yourself for any opponent.

Commentary Videos

Learn from the Masters! Watch experts break down classic and modern games, explaining their thought processes, strategies, and tactics. By watching these videos, you'll gain a deeper understanding of key concepts, improve your decision-making skills, and learn how to think like a pro. Research has shown that observing expert performance can significantly enhance learning outcomes, making commentary videos a valuable resource for improving your game.

Combined Learning

The Perfect Duo for Mastery! Combining the Opening Explorer with Chess Commentary Videos provides a powerful learning experience. Since commentary videos help you to understand the game and specific chess positions, AND you also want to specialise on specific openings, why don't you do both? You play your favourite openings in our Opening Explorer, and we will show you commentary videos related to those openings. It can be an effective way to improve your chess game, and it is also very fun!
