2022-05-21	HI*****	Very important to repeat these until it feels "natural".... Improves your sense/ tactical vision which is mostly needed in short time controls and in longer time controls will help steer direction of calculation against sub 1800 who eventually fall to tactics anyway. This app is amazing. I think it's superior to Giannatos, Bain, and on par with Polgar's Chess Tactics for Champions
