Fuseki

    Keywords: Opening, Go term

Chinese: 布局 (bùjú)
Japanese 布石 (fuseki)
Korean: 포석 (p’osŏk = poseok)

Fuseki is a Japanese go term meaning arraying stones for battle. This normally occurs in the first moves of a game, thus fuseki is a synonym for opening. Rarely, there are games that have no fuseki, rather fighting begins almost immediately.

Joban is the Japanese term for the first moves of a game regardless of the presence or absence of a fuseki.
