How to Evaluate Positions Part 2: King's Indian Defense

@ChessMindAI

Mr.ChessMindAI does it again!

Great in depth examinations of the knight vs bishop endgame.

That youtube thumbnail be looking slick btw.

You should replace the current thumbnail with the youtube thumbnail :D

You said you were worried about clickbait images before, but I don't see what's clickbait about it.

It's just a photo of the guy that made the blog and text which says 'King's Indian Endgames Like A GM'.

Which is a factual statement cos u are a GM :D

@ChessMindAI Wait, you are the author of Chess structures and chess imbalances!!! Thank you so much for your books. I really like your Chess Imbalances book. Some parts I struggle a bit to understand but that's probably because I'm still learning. Your tips and guidelines like for example for the bishop pair has helped me tremendously in my OTB team matches. It increases my confidence that I can deal with what is on the board.

That's awesome! So happy to hear you liked the books ;)
You can always post questions in my channel or Discord.
I try to answer them all, and sometimes make videos inspired on the questions I receive, so that's an option too

By far the best blogs on Lichess. I am around 2100 Elo and I have profited a lot from your first two posts. Fantastic work!

Hello.

Old chess schools (at least some of them that I didn't attend) started to educate from endgames.
Once you get how to play endgames, you

  1. won't be frustrated when you reach it
  2. will know what you need to build in the middlegame in order to have winning endgame
  3. will know some "tricks" that can help you to jump into draw if you have a loosing position
  4. ... (there are could be more that I'm not aware)

Well, your article perfectly shows how that principle works.
Thank you! Now I know what kind of structure I need to avoid since I play KID as black from time to time (at amature level).

This is cool! I've never played the kings Indian, but I'm fascinated by technical endgames

Thank you! Personally, I can share that, the first time I reached this structure, I was black, and I got crushed.
The worst part is, I couldn't understand what I had done wrong, I didn't miss a single move from my opponent,
and yet, he beat me easily...
