    Why the Middlegame Decides Your Chess Games (and How to Get Better at It)

    Your opening ends on move ten. Your endgame rarely arrives. Everything in between is where you win or lose. This episode explains why the middlegame decides almost every game below master level, the five habits that improve it fastest, and why the fastest way to practise it is to skip the opening entirely. The 12 tactical patterns from the episode, with examples: Chess tactics for beginners. Five middlegame plans for your first games: Chess strategies for beginners. Transcript: episode page.
