      A strategic mastermind.
      I know that it's a matter of taste, but me personally, I prefer stuff that'd help/improve my Classical Chess instead of quick Blitz tips.
      I like this series as a form of entertainment, but I just don't like it being portrayed as _educational_ when I don't believe in it's usefulness. Feels sketch.
      Edit: Just a little more elaboration on his plans and analysis like _"why it's good?"_ or _"how did I come up with that plan?"_ would go a long way.

      @@edmis90 okay, but if you try, you can soak in a lot of ideas that would work in classical too. It's still chess, after all.
      Moreover, the stalling idea could be useful in classical too, right. Serves as a reminder that when you have little idea what to do, sometimes it's better to wait for your opponent to create a weakness than to start your own initiative. Very Karpov-like.
      I might be wrong, though. Haven't played a lot of classical.

      oh well the queen is defending that pawn anyways. Not sure if he wanted extra defense or just thought the file would open up and the rook would be useful on it. Probably the latter. Either way at that point it doesnt matter because his opponent dropped a piece. He probably didnt think about it very hard.

    How to study openings? Is there a website/app? Chess.com doesn't have unlimited analyzes on the app :(
