Must-Know Checkmating Patterns with GM Marian Petrov

Most club players study tactics the wrong way.

They focus on quantity and repetition, ignoring the most important step… then get surprised about the lack of progress.

Grandmasters know better.

Learning patterns is a must before even attempting ANY tactical puzzles.

If you skip this step, you’ll get stuck in the ‘rating stagnation’.

You see, it is hard to find tactics that you’ve never seen before.

And it is a lot easier to find it, standing on the shoulders of giants (or GMs) and learning the patterns first.

We are not here to reinvent the wheel, but rather to learn how to find checkmating attacks and win games as quickly and efficiently as possible.

In this new TCW Academy course, GM Marian Petrov will teach you the most important checkmating patterns that will take you from a tactical ‘novice’ to an ‘expert’ in just 3 training sessions!
