  • @VestedUTuber
    @VestedUTuber 2 місяці тому +1

    Ok, one thing with the Benko Gambit - it sacrifices a lot of material but it does give a positional advantage, because not only do you open lines for your own pieces, you also stall White's development by basically forcing them to move the same pawn repeatedly. I'm not disagreeing with its placement as it's still terrible for low-to-mid ranked players, but it's a good one to back-burner.

    Placing Alekhine in F tier while it should actually be a C- tier opening that is fun but not very strong in GM level is crazy.
    And then placing the Englund gambit which straight up just blunders a tempo on move 2 so high is crazy

    I made a new move for black, it is just for white but here it goes, first if the enemy plays e4 you can do e5 or e6, second, if the enemy doesn't protect the pawn, your queen can go to h4, next, your enemy will think your doing the 4 move checkmate, then, the enemy will move to g3, finally you take the e4 pawn and then it's a check and it also attack the rook

  • @currentofthesnake8486
    @currentofthesnake8486 Місяць тому

    Caro Can definitely not play S-Tier. Simply because White has so many options as to what he can play against it, some of which are really complex, like the Panov Attack or such insidious things as the Two Knights Attack. You have to know all of that, just like with the Sicilian.

    I am only 1400 but I have won a lot of games playing albin counter gambit. Since it's not that common opening no one is prepared for it so we get a huge lead and advantage on the first few moves. We don't block any piece and it's aggressive opening so we keep attacking the opponent and he will blunder at some point.
