Build your learning path

Start with the foundations and layer in deeper reads. Each module links to a focused walkthrough, letting you jump from theory to practice inside the trainer.

Situational practice themes

Use these prompts when reviewing your games or the built-in auto-play logs. They highlight when the tactic from each guide is available.

Early game probes

Track which center moves limit your opponent to two replies or less before the edges open up.

Edge fights

Practice wedge tactics that flip unstable edges without handing over the adjacent corner.

Mobility audits

Pause when you have three or fewer moves—note which placements reopen the board safely.

Parity sweeps

Count empty squares by region and plan which pocket you want to finish last.
