Employ the metaphors on 64 squares. Cover the turf of the invisible and visible. CHESS, an evolution that required Big Blue to take awhile to learn, begun like a viral idea, viral in its ability to morph a solid protection against any attack. Too ethereal? No way. This will ground you.
If new to the game, the first magic trick you will learn is the 2 move checkmate, then the 4 move checkmate and then the coup de grace you will never forget, the dance of your King and Rook pushing the enemy King to its demise.
Then on to a standard French Defense that can surprise you.
If an old pro, you will see an interesting variation of the Sicilian Defense.
