Training

Knowing your theory and playing it under pressure are two different skills. Régence’s training works on the second: the app puts you in front of your repertoire’s positions, and you play.

A session

Train this opening, in a study’s context menu (or the Train button of its detail panel), opens the session. After choosing the color to train, the rule is simple: the app plays the other side, and at every position where it’s your turn, you play the expected move.

• A correct move carries on — the opponent replies, the line advances.
• A wrong move is flagged, with the expected move shown — and the line will be offered again at the end of the session, until you hold it without a miss.
• A hint button progressively reveals the answer when memory stalls.

The session counter tracks progress: current line out of the total, and correct moves out of moves seen.

Your move — the repertoire gets recited on the board, not in your head.

Spaced repetition

Behind the session, every position of your repertoire lives in a memory box, from 1 to 5 — the flashcard principle (Leitner system):

• Correct move: the position moves up one box — it will come back less often.
• Wrong move: the position drops back to box 1 — it returns to the front.

Fragile positions thus naturally reappear more often than mastered ones. Nothing to manage: playing your sessions is enough, the system does the sorting.

Reading your mastery

See statistics, in the study’s context menu, draws up the balance sheet: overall success, mastery branch by branch — and that’s where training becomes surgical: a session can start directly from a weak branch, to work only on the variation that falters.
