makeshift
A makeshift is a play that deals with the needs of the situation, even though it is locally less than ideal. Typically, settling stones in suboptimal shape but in such a way that it allows some other, more pressing goal to be achieved. The following example is taken from game 6 of the 1992 Meijin title match between Kobayashi Koichi, 9 dan, and Otake Hideo, 9 dan. Kobayashi played white.
