The queen and rook endgames are among the most important and critical endgames. The main reason is that they are heavy pieces (or major pieces) and they can move several squares in a single move –they can be transferred from one place to another easily.

It’s necessary for every chess player to give importance to such endgames and learn the key strategies of queen-rook endgames (or major piece endgames). In this video, RCA guest coach IM Asaf Givon will share with you 4 principles to win major piece endgames.
