About Castling
Castling is the only move in chess where two pieces move at once, providing king safety and rook activation simultaneously. Tactical puzzles involving castling often require you to spot whether castling rights can be exploited, how to prevent the opponent from castling safely, or how to use castling as an unexpected tactical resource. Understanding castling's strategic and tactical dimensions is fundamental to chess mastery.
