Drill the 20 decisions that matter

Solve each position from the board. The drills focus on the central challenge, the Austrian advance, the attacking races, and the Czech Defense trap. A wrong answer shows why the move fails in that position.

Play the bot and apply it

Take Black against the bot from each Pirc setup. Use the coach card to recognize the guide situation, then review the game and return to the drill that matches the decision you missed.

Pirc Defense variations

Each starting position has a concrete target for Black and a mirror target for White. Choose a setup to restart from that exact board.
