Chessbase for sure. But you have to pay
Playing through 10-20 master games a day to learn new ideas on tactics and attacking is my favorite part of training everyday. However, I am not a genius and I don't have a photographic memory so I must find some good way to learn outstanding attacking ideas. There are three steps in my method.
1. Zip through Tal's games to find outstanding ideas. I love how he targets f7 square and often sac a piece or two pieces to destroy the king's castle.
2. Trim the pgn to turn it into a puzzle. Let's say the attack begins at move 17.Nxf7, then my puzzle will start at 16..., just like any online tactics. And, I often make sure the puzzle is not necessary long. Usually, Tal's ideas are about 5-move long.
3. Make a collection of puzzle, and play with a free software with guess the move like Lucas chess.
Here is an example.
Have fun training guys
