We're chess nuts, but let's face it - we're not GMs (yet). And English isn't our first language either. That's why we're double-checking all the card content before the launch. We might've blundered somewhere, so if you spot any issues, give us a shout. We're aiming to create the best game out there, and we need everyone's eagle eyes to make it happen.

We also included some smaller creators who are growing fast and we believe deserve your attention. Check out these resources if you want to master this tactical pattern.
