Positionally-Aggressive players.

We've had many threads (Diakonia knows the exact number) titled:

-I'm an aggressive player!

-I'm a tactical player!

-I'm an offensive player!

-I'm a tactically aggressive player!

 

Recently, we had some guy saying he was a positional player and downplayed the importance of tactics. Such a player is not as common as the "tactically-aggressive" player, but it also exists.

However, today I'm going to tell you about the positionally-aggressive player, aka strategically-tactical player, aka strategically-positionally-tactically-aggressive player.

And no, I'm not going to talk about those boring players that claim to "play the position".

I'm talking about players who play positionally or tactically whenever they want, no matter what the position asks for. They're the true masters.

You don't know yet, but you want to be one of them.

You left out the "tactically submissive" player.

Actually, I think this is a great description of my style.

Bruce Lee said it perfectly when he was asked about his "style" 

He said be like water...

There's often a temptation to be too passive when playing someone stronger than you.

Donfrye1 was one of the offensive players, I think.

All tactics are positional moves.  Not all  positional moves are tactics.

I have said that writing in a big font size is a sign of low self-steem.
