Fuseki
''Fuseki'' (Japanese: ; ) is the whole board Go opening theory, opening in the go (game), game of Go. Characteristics Less systematic Since each move is typically isolated and unforced (i.e., not a Go strategy and tactics#Sente and gote, sente move), patterns for play on the whole board have seen much less systematic study than for Joseki, which are often contact moves which require specific and immediate responses.

These include the two-star fuseki (''nirensei fuseki''), three-star fuseki (''sanrensei fuseki''), Chinese fuseki, Kobayashi fuseki, and Shusaku fuseki.

It is distinguished by rapid development on the side, rather than making a corner enclosure, inviting White to start an invasion. It has a fairly long history, originally used by Japanese player Hajime Yasunaga, and introduced to Chinese Go at a later stage, but the Chinese player Chen Zude pioneered it in top-level play. The Chinese style became very popular in Japan from about 1970 onwards, and has by Go standards a thoroughly-researched theory. It has two variants: high (with 5 in the diagram on the fourth line) and low (as depicted). There is also a so-called "mini"-Chinese fuseki, an attack against the opponent's corner and placement of a stone midway between the at ...
