Low
Path: Mistake   · Prev: LossMakingThreats   · Next: Mochikomi
    Keywords: Strategy

Stones are low if they are on the second or third line. It is a mistake to have too many low stones: they are good for building eye space, but the second line isn't good for taking serious territory. Plays on the fourth line have much more influence towards the centre. It is taught that one should aim for balance.

See high or low, high vs low pincer.
