Well I asked this when I was new to chess.Now I have 100 end games you must know and Dvoretsky's endgame manual. I am currently reading 100 end games you must know. Then I will read Dvoretsky's endgame manual. Both are on chessable.

I have nearly all of the Chess King modules, other than the three Informant modules. 

I haven't actually used the endgame module, but if its like the other modules, it would help you...

But, I actually just got Dvorestky's Endgame Manual from Chessbase. I think Chess King modules in certain aspects, do better as a supplement to other training material.

I got to the 1850 level of Robot engine on Chess King 2017 standard, but can't progress, so I'm looking at getting other training material to fill in some of the chess knowlege that needs a different approach to learning.

If you want to play like Hikaru, I would recommend taking a time machine back to early childhood and arranging it so that you have a parent who is an IM-strength chess coach.  happy.png
