"Wrap up one game, move to the next battlefield."
A Central region 8-dan who reached the Okan challenger decision match. I want to watch how he switches to the next battlefield right after the stones settle.

watch for this.
Follow where he plays right after a local fight settles down. Whether he keeps defending or moves away to another big point shows his whole-board judgment.
WATCHING CHARACTER
Personality that shows
on the board.
A player to watch for the judgment to tidy up his shape and get ahead to another part of the board, rather than staying only in the fight in front of him.
