Sonoda Yuichi9-dan

"Unafraid of the center, using the board big."

A 9-dan who has been active at the front line for a long time. He says he can't pin down his style, but I want to watch his whole-board plans built on his record and experience.

MIRUGO WATCH POINT

For this player,
watch for this.

In the opening, watch for moves that influence the center, not just the corners and sides. The highlight is how stones that don't become territory right away work in later fights.

In the official profile he says of his style, "I don't know myself." MIRUGO doesn't box him in, and uses his plans that use the board widely in the opening as the entrance to watching.
