Following the success of Dreev University – Rook Endgames, GM Alexey Dreev and GM Pier Luigi Basso return with the second installment of their elite training program: Dreev University – Positional Play.
If the first course helped you master technical positions, this one will teach you how to think like a strategist.
♟️ Positional chess isn’t about what to do – it’s about how to think. You know the classic rules: control the center, improve your pieces, avoid weaknesses. But real positional play goes beyond rules. It’s about:
Navigating complex positions with deep strategic awareness
Knowing when to act and when to wait
Creating winning chances from equal positions
Outplaying your opponent without relying on tactics
