A player with a clear advantage in ko threats may be able to take advantage of that situation. It can for example transform sequences that would be unreasonable for Black to follow, into sequences that would be unreasonable for White. Therefore the mere threat of losing a ko fight can have a forcing effect on the opponent. There is a corresponding theoretical idea of ko master.
