- So, you want to improve at atomic, eh? At this point you’ve probably played a few games and lost in a couple moves, and you’ve possibly even looked at some stockfish lines to see how to survive longer. Well, one of the biggest things in atomic is that pieces can attack by themselves, so nearly any starting move will have an immediate mate threat, and this is what new players struggle the most with. A while ago I created a thread on lichess about learning material (https://lichess.org/forum/team-atomic-chess-theoreticians/atomic-learning-material), but while this does have a lot of material, it also cannot be edited and updated due to the way lichess’s forums work, so new work doesn’t find its way into there. When I was rewriting lichess’s atomic page (https://lichess.org/variant/atomic), I wanted to include a lot more information, but I decided the page was better kept short for the same reason, and ever since I finished rewriting that, I’ve kinda meant to get something together that can easily be updated whenever I want, so yeah, this pastebin exists now :o
- So, turns out a lot of stuff has been made since I last looked into this, which is more than a little annoying. While the endgame theory is still pretty much the same minus the random Illion study on some obscure endgame which is very fascinating, but you will never run into in a real game, the opening theory has more studies that I need to collect, which is irksome.
