Urgency
  Difficulty: Beginner   Keywords: Go term

Informal go concept, as in the proverb about urgent points. The urgency of a play is supposed to give a correct idea of the priority to give it.

There is a contrast with big plays, which are demonstrably of importance in terms of prospective territory or the score. Sometimes urgent plays relating to attack and defence should be made ahead of big plays with fewer implications.

Non-urgent plays can be considered slow, or slack, or small.
