your channel is strangely stylish and pleasant, sir. bless God your work. By the way, I`m a dan player so I`m gonna wait for even more videos which can be useful for players like me. Thank you for your time and effort, sir
Thank you so much for your kind words! A quick question, I had been living in my own box for a while so I am not too sure what dan players would like to learn. What kind of topic would interest you? I thought dan players know all the basic things and knows how to use and respond to all the common opening strategies. I thought the only projects that might interest dan players would be going over games to explain mistakes and techniques, but I realized that quite a lot of lower dan players don't really know follow-up strategies to most of the common openers. Would you personally be interested in learning mid-game fighting strategies and opening strategies with in-depth follow-ups? and do you mind telling me your rank and which platform you mostly use? We have quite some projects lined up, but we would love to push a project for dan players asap, so we would love to hear about your opinions!
@@simplebaduk you're right, sir. Most of the dan players (european ones at least) have crawled their way up to the Dan level quite... without any real system or "concrete" approach. Any ideas which can help us keep up with fundamentals throughout hard moments of our games will serve us a lot. Let's call it meta-fundamentals. I often find myself in trouble trying to look for some continuation during my own game... not in the joseki part, nor in tuban or in yose. Sometimes you're just missing your own game. It would be great to hear some fundamentals of how can I get my own game back to course. Decent dan player though... Thank you for listening to my bla-bla stuff, sir!
I had been looking for this teaching about fuseki's basics for years ! simple, super clear and great pedagogy. I finally learned the very basics after 25 years playing go. Thank you very much
Please let us know how it went! I remember I was super confident and felt like I knew what I was doing when I memorized a few principles to follow, and I went from 3 kyu to 1 dan in 2 weeks without extra study or work. Good luck to you my man!
THAT'S AWESOME!!! It's always great to hear feedbacks and thank you for taking your time to let me know how it went! Please let us know if you want to learn about any specific subject about Go. We will try our best to provide you with those content!@@sprocket314
That is also why pros kind of don't do this anymore, but pros back in the days still did it. Think of it as, your opponent had at least 3 invasion points to deal with, but, by taking the corner, you don't have any invasions to worry about and you got super thick. You can use this thickness and moyo to start to mange your game for there. The reduction and invasion technique has gotten so much bettter after AI, but most amateurs still don't know how to properly reduce or invade, so you securing some thickness and moyo will increase your win rate even though AI might it is not as good.
When they play unorthodox moves or doesn't cooperate, then it probably means that there must be some kind of flaws with those moves, which is why they are unorthodox. If you can manage to find the flaws, then the game will tilt toward your side. In most cases, just ignore your opponent's weird moves unless it immediately threatens your stones. Mostly because amateur players probably don't have the savy reading skills to punish the opponents. But again, in most cases, if you drag the game into mid game, those flaws will be more and more visible to you so you can punish your opponent then
If white plays the middle star point instead of solidifying the right side, then black is probably going to invide by playing where white was supposed to play and it is going to turn into a complicated game. If you are confident that you can get more than what you lose by luring your opponent to invade and start a fight, then you could play like that. But that usually only happens in unfair games where a 5 kyu player is playing against like 10 kyu or something. In short though, playing that middle star point is basically wasting a move because you cannot be sure if that stone is going to be useful or not. But since you already played there, your opponent can try to make that stone not as useful and that stone turns into a "wasted move" stone
HI! That´s great, I was just looking to improve my estimation. I am super fan of your cosmic style course. Did you though in do reviews for your students, or classes? Maybe trhough Paypal or other method.
Thank you so much for your support man! I thought about taking students and doing reviews/classes, but I am not good at keeping a schedule and being awake at specific times and such so I gave up on that thought haha Besides that, I don't think taking classes and getting games reviewed means much for kyu and lower dan players. I would suggest they watch a few more lectures and do some kifu-spreads. It's much cheaper and more efficient. If someone with spare cash wants to find a teacher, I won't stop this person, but I think that's a waste of money and time, especially with most teachers out there. If you have any subject that you would like to learn more about, then just let me know here. I will make a course on that subject. Easier for you to learn because you can re-watch over and over and a well-thought-out lecture is definitely better than the "ask me a question" kind of class for amateur players. And... it is probably more cost-efficient than paying a monthly fee to a teacher or something haha

Thanks for this video! I am a 2 kyu player; I watched once the lesson and I won the next 10 games with 1-3 kyu. Yoa are a great teacher!
Ahh That's incredible! Glad to hear that our videos helped you to improve a bit!!!
Great video, subscribed for more!
Thank you for the sub and like and comment!
Thank you for your channel! Excited to watch all your videos, some of the best Baduk content on UA-cam.
I'm a 2k and found this video super useful. I'll be using the 5 principles tonight when I pop by my Go club. Many thanks!
Please let us know how it went!

@@simplebaduk I defeated a former 2 dan last night following these fuseki principles. This is good stuff!

Well done and a fine presentation, Your baduk teacher must be proud of where you have ended up.
Thanks for the video, waiting for next.
Thank you for your comment!
We have 3 more videos lined up this week and the next one is going to be up in a few hours!
Wow! Great video. Exactly what I needed.
Thank you for your time. It was very helpful and interesting to watch! You've got a new subscriber 🙃
Excellent video. Thank you and you are a great teacher as well!
Thank you for your kind words!!
Could you make videos about reduction and invasion? I find development, reduction and invasion the most important topics in go.
What a great video. Thank you for this
as an sdk player ( 2kyu egd) i always feel scared to play the two wing -after the 3-3 it feels like one of my stones become useless

Thank you for noticing us!!!!
This was a great video. I was wondering if you had any suggestions when your opponent doesn't cooperate and plays unorthodox moves in the opening.
When they play unorthodox moves or doesn't cooperate, then it probably means that there must be some kind of flaws with those moves, which is why they are unorthodox. If you can manage to find the flaws, then the game will tilt toward your side. In most cases, just ignore your opponent's weird moves unless it immediately threatens your stones. Mostly because amateur players probably don't have the savy reading skills to punish the opponents. But again, in most cases, if you drag the game into mid game, those flaws will be more and more visible to you so you can punish your opponent then
Near the end of the video, why not have white play the star point in the middle of the board on the right hand side??
If white plays the middle star point instead of solidifying the right side, then black is probably going to invide by playing where white was supposed to play and it is going to turn into a complicated game. If you are confident that you can get more than what you lose by luring your opponent to invade and start a fight, then you could play like that. But that usually only happens in unfair games where a 5 kyu player is playing against like 10 kyu or something.
