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. In online games, these "flying knives" and "weird moves" are sometimes caused by the limitations of the players' skills 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, and are first tested in online games. The author primarily focuses on the key points of attacking these "doubtful shapes" and methods of responding to "flying knives," analyzing and introducing common chess shapes in online games. This should be helpful for net chess enthusiasts to improve their skills. The book is based on the online ranking and score of the players, with most games selected from "Lianzong World" and "Yitian Qiyuan," analyzing and introducing common online shapes such as the "Even-Piece Cannon," "Vertical-Piece Cannon," "Central Cannon against Screen Windmill," and "Central Cannon against Anti-Court Horse," noting the players' names, the time and location of the games.
