How to Place Your Pieces in the Endgame

This is a guide to a video series.

How to Place Your Pieces in the Endgame is a series that should help beginners with their endgame play, by going through each piece in one video, giving some pointers about how to use that piece, and where to place it compared to the other pieces on the board. If a beginning Chess Kid is interested in the endgame, the first thing they should learn are the first three videos from the Basic Mates series. Then this series would be the next step, and will probably give them all the endgame knowledge they need until they get up to the 800-1000 range.
