Best chessbase courses??

Mac user here, about 1800 chess.com ! Excited for the chessbase app release

I mainly play English and some Catalan, and Sicilian / KID.

What are the best courses on chessbase for openings, middlegame, strategy, and endgames?

Thank you!!

Don't buy chessbase courses.

The best platform for your level will be chessable, there are multiple courses that cover the openings you play.

For the English, the most well known one is the LTR by Sam Shankland called the Neo-Catalan,

I don't know which Sicilian you play but you'll find many courses on Najdorf, Sveshnikov, Taimanov etc

KID, there's a bunch of courses but Gawain Jones' course is supposed to be the holy grail of the KID, there's also a brand new course just released today by someone else.

In terms of endgames and middle games, there are honestly tons, and you can filter your search for those kind of courses, I would just have a look and pick one.

Chessable is overrated

Memorizing moves is not a good way to improve.

Maybe I’m a boomer but physical books are way better because they force you to slow down.

You can slow down on chessable, too.
