Features: "Net Chess Opening Shapes" is a series of books introducing and guiding players on how to analyze and respond to "flying knives" and "weird moves" that appear in online games. Some of these "flying knives" and "weird moves" in online games are caused by the limitations of the players' skill levels or improvisation, resulting in "doubtful shapes" in the opening. Others are carefully studied and prepared by professional players in China for use in major tournaments, with initial testing done online. The authors primarily focus on the key points of attacking these "doubtful shapes" and methods of countering "flying knives," analyzing and introducing common chess shapes in online games. This should be helpful for net chess enthusiasts in improving their skills.
