Let’s add some cognitive load to your visualisation training. Chessagram gives you 125 5-Move Piece Bank puzzles – all rated ELO 1200–1400 – built for players who want to sharpen their visualisation and calculation – you attempt the full sequence unassisted, then, if needed, reveal only the piece types involved in scrambled order. No squares, no sides, no sequence. The bank narrows the search space just enough to make progress; the line you find yourself. The Piece Bank Method Pick a book whose lower rating band is ~200+ above your current Lichess puzzle rating – deliberately beyond your normal solving ability. - Try to calculate the full sequence in your head from the position alone – no moves, no hints. The struggle primes the brain . - Reveal the Piece Bank when your thinking stops producing new information – not on a timer, but when another minute of staring wouldn't teach you anything new. The piece symbols involved appear in scrambled order – no destinations, no side, and a repeated symbol could mean one piece moving twice or several pieces of the same type. The bank narrows the search; the line you reconstruct yourself . - If still stuck, peek at the answers one move at a time – each peek a minimum dose. Return to the position after each and visualise the rest yourself. - Success isn't "I solved it" – it's "I found the gap." A cold solve means no gap was exposed. Any other outcome means you identified a specific weakness(es) – which is exactly what training is for . Notes: If you keep losing the thread, you can scaffold the puzzle difficulty by writing candidate moves or partial lines down as you calculate. Treat this as training wheels – the goal is to gradually remove the assistance until you can hold the full sequence in your head unaided. - To make Step 3 even harder, reveal one piece from the Piece Bank at a time! The best moments come when a piece appears that you'd discounted entirely – that "wait, what does that do?" moment is the insight itself: a specific blind spot you can try to name, hone in on, and improve – and consciously factor into your calculations going forward!
