    "Reti opening is good but slow and not very fun"
    Except that it can force a transposition into the Tennison Gambit by way of 1. Nf3, d5 2. e4, which can then lead to multiple bombastically aggressive lines like the ICBM Variation.

    5:33 2.Nf3 is a smart move order to play the Queen's gambit, the London, the Colle or the Catalan without revealing our plan too early : A-tier
    5:37 : the Jobava-London is agressive and fun, there is a lot of online content to learn to play it quickly. B-tier definitely
    5:38 And the Colle and Colle-Zukertort systems ? Super easy to play, ultra agressive and efficient below 2000. A-tier for amateurs.

    bird's opening is actually good and will give you some kingside attacking chances. Also it's like a system opening because you play f4 Nf3 b3 Bb2 and e3 99 percent of the time. The only thing you have to learn about is the from gambit but i learned the kings gambit against it so its a fine opening i think it belongs to the B tier because even though its fun and agressive, beginner level chess players can lose games because of exposing the king.

  • @phw951
    @phw951 2 місяці тому +1

    1:37 the Nimzo-Larsen definitely belongs in A tier. Easy to play, you can set up systems with Bb2, c4, e3, Be2. If you choose critical lines you can get agressive attacks, very fun. And you definitely don't need to be a GM to understand the ideas, 1400 may be enough, but even at 1000 you can something out of it.

    Bro u made Bird dirty when it's a good opening honestly. It takes the center under control, has almost no theory, with the Sturm Gambit you can get rapid development and in best case scenario a rook if opp tries to defend the pawn no matter what, plus it can surprise and elliminates all the prep against Italian, London, Caro or any other mainstream opening, kinda refreshing. One of the best games ever played (the double bishop sacrifice by Lasker) comes from f4. Of course to play it at 2000+ takes balls, but i saw people who played it even at 1800, so unlike Grob that's fun to play but selfsabotaging, i'd prefer to play 10 games with f4 and get unique positions than 10 Italians or smh like that where it's mostly the same. Italian and the rest are solid no doubt but let's give a chance to more uncommon openings like Bent Larsen, known for his open mind

    Who is King's Indian Defence Player? I personally like it, because literally everyone who castles kingside loses the game against me due to the fact that I can go for a pawn-storm on the king side and overwhelm the white king. It is slightly unpleasant if they castle queenside, but you can still save the game from there.
