Double-Purpose Plays
Difficulty: Beginner
Keywords: Strategy
Any play that has two meanings, regarding tactics or strategy or both. For example double atari, or a play that defends your group while attacking your opponent, or a good ladder breaker that has some effect.
Much of basic strategy aims at setting up double-purpose plays, or denying them to your opponent. See for example immediate life. Clearly they are in general useful, and a sign that you are co-ordinating different objectives. This is a copy of the living page "Double-Purpose Plays" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
