It's like memorizing a build


Yeah, but after you build the buildings they stay there and you can forget, but just take a look and instantly reminded.

pretty good analogy



you have such a deep mental image of the board and how the pieces are affecting eachother that seeing the board stops being really important at all.

Morphy would go undefeated playing against grandmasters in blindfold games against like 20 people at once.


This is just disgusting.

Prolly knows what moves to make and knows how they would react so the build is designed around the opponents thoughts,

Like in Wol when you go Phoenix and expect your opponent to get hydra so you transition to colossus

Yeah, I understand strategy.

It's just doing it all in the fog of war (so to speak) is what's amazing!
