Use Contactmoves For Defence
Difficulty: Beginner
Whereas contact moves are considered bad for attacking (see DontAttachWhenAttacking), they are very useful when playing in the opponent's sphere of influence. The reason for both is that contact moves in general will make both players' positions stronger. When you are attacking, making the opponent stronger is the last thing you want, but in an invasion, or when you are defending your own weak position, strengthening the opponent is much less problematic - he is already strong, and giving him a bit more won't hurt that much. On the other hand, strengthening your own stones, and giving them the maximal amount of space, is often useful in these contexts.
