Fuseki
Keywords: Opening, Go term
The Fuseki is the opening of the game.
A general, basic introduction to the opening starts at About the Opening.
Some Fusekis are more common than others, and have received names. A more detailed discussion of these can be found on some of the pages listed here.
Most named openings derive their name from the pattern adopted by Black.
Historically, 'Shusaku-style' is a term often used to the mainstream theories from 1840 onwards (the major recognised patterns from that time being the Shusaku fuseki itself, the regulation fuseki, and openings in which Black 1 and 3 enclose a corner). ShinFuseki refers to a period 1933-1935/6 of intense experimentation by Japanese professional players. Sougou fuseki is a name applied to the beginnings of modern theory in the years that followed.
Most of the less usual types of openings are covered by Fuseki not taking free corners.
The part of the Fuseki played in one corner is called a joseki - which more accurately means any standardised sequence.
