In this video, IM Alex Astaneh will teach you important principles and concepts that you can apply in your endgames.

We take a look at the following points:

King Activity:
We covered the importance of king activity in endgames, especially in king and pawn endgames as well as rook and pawn endgames. King activity is especially highly important in king and pawn endgames.

Pawn Structure:
Sometimes the difference between a healthy and an unhealthy pawn structure makes the difference between winning or losing in the endgame.

Passed Pawns:
Passed pawns are crucial, because very often in king and pawn endgames, the side who can promote his pawn first, will win.

Endgame concepts:
We discussed in this video the concepts of β€œZugzwang” and "Opposition" which are also relevant in endgames.
