Drill your openings with guided move validation

Knowing your openings cold wins games at every level. Chessyi includes a dedicated opening practice mode with dozens of named lines, from the Ruy Lopez and Sicilian Najdorf to the Queen's Gambit and King's Indian.

Practice mode validates your moves against the line, offers hints when you are stuck, and can auto-play opponent responses so you can drill your side of the repertoire repeatedly.
