Ko Threat
    Keywords: Ko

A ko threat is a move which threatens something. They are used in a ko fight: When there is a ko which you are not allowed to immediately retake, you play a ko threat. This forces your opponent to answer, after which you can retake the ko, and now it is your opponent's turn to find a ko threat.

See for a clearer and more extensive explanation BasicKoThreats.
