Practice the Traxler Counter Attack against Nxf7, Bxf7+, and d4. Use our Traxler Counter Attack guide alongside 8 guided lines, 16 exercises, and six starting positions for games against the bot.
Follow eight guide routes: four from Black's side and four from White's. Build the Kf1 center break, conduct the Kxf2 king hunt, handle 5.Bxf7+, meet 5.d4, and learn the exact defensive resources in the sharpest positions. Complete any line to save its progress locally.

Where the moves come from: every line and position in this trainer comes from our Traxler Counter Attack guide. Its five tests appear here with the guide's answers and evaluations: Bxf2+ (+1.36), Ne5 (-0.01), cxb5 (-0.19), Bc4 (+1.18), and Nxf7 (+0.92).
These 16 positions cover the f2 sacrifice, central breaks, queen entry, open-file pressure, the mirror mate, White's survival move, and both guide defenses. Every Learn route appears twice, with legal alternatives tied to immediate board consequences.

Choose one of six Traxler starts and set the bot from 600 to 3000. The coach recognizes the main counterattack, both king choices, the trapped h8-knight, the bishop line, the 5.d4 reply, and the mirror-mate pattern.
The six starts contain the main eight-move position, all four book variations, and the ...Qf4+ mirror-mate set piece. Each gives Black and White opposite, observable targets.
Three directions, each with a reason. Everything below links to a page that exists today.
