Top 10 Chess Openings
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 чер 2024
- The most common question I get asked is the top chess openings a player should learn in chess so I thought I'd create a video to answer that question. In semi-order we have:
10. Slav Defense
9. London System
8. Caro Kann
7. Fried Liver Attack
6. French Defense
5. Ruy Lopez
4. Nimzo-Indian Defense
3. King's Gambit
2. Sicilian Defense
1. Queen's Gambit
Does anyone else just play these without knowing ur doing an actual opening
Any good chess player will play these without knowing it’s a “meta” opening. They are openings because they are the most logical moves
@@krisblacklaws6101 that’s subjective and any “ good chess player “ would know any opening can win
@@dbt5110 no bro thats bot subjective
@najgorsza yeah I’m a bot
@@najgorsza120wpl5 I’m a bot..
Who else came here after watching the Queen's Gambit? Such a masterpiece.
Yes omg i wanna learn how to play chess now
@@reneepinksterboer1617 i swear
Truly an amazing show
I did lol
Lol this is me
Interesting how every opening is the most common opening
What's interesting is that out of the 10 openings he mentions he only calls 5 of them "most common" and each opening is most common for its own specific set of circumstances which he explains.
Someguyyoudontknowyo *plays "denzel curry - ultimate" opening lyrics*
His kings and queens are set up wrong they should be swapped around
Ghosia Mir No....
no there not.....
1. This was played on Chess.com, the top rated chess site to date. They would NEVER get something this simple wrong
2. The K & Q always go in the 2 middle blocks. The Queen always goes on her color (or on the D row), The king beside her (on the E row)
Queen is always on her own color
0:55 Slav Defense
1:37 London System
2:26 Caro Kon
3:01 Fried Liver Attack
4:08 French Defense
4:58 Ruy Lopez
5:48 Ninzo-Indian Defense
6:33 King’s Gambit
7:48 Sicilian Defense
8:45 Queen’s Gambit
U forgot to say
Thank me later
Michael Pisciarino thanks
Yastika Prashar lol
nice
Michael Pisciarino, thank you so much. Saved me a lot of time
Things I learned in this video
-Every opening is the most common opening
-Chess players don’t like explaining why they do what they do
-You’re expected to know everything if you’re a beginner
-Defend against the Queen’s Gambit
Lol true
I know like none of these teachers explain shit! Just say what to do like hot about teach the strategic way of thinking ffs
@@alexawermuth558 I just started learning chess and it's honestly insane lmao none explain well
It’s the israel blargh guy. Hi israel blargh commenter guy
@@rawbeefking866 holy shit it’s been a while since I’ve been recognized as that role. These days I’m either the PMD Randomizer guy or the GrandPOOBear commenter guy. Nice to see ya!
I edited this comment so now all of the replies make no sense
i thought it was to forget to defend against belgium
Edit: thx for all the likes guys(I wish that i had that may subs tho)
nice

LMAOOO
The problem with studying openings is that it's entirely dependent on what your opponent plays. I think these might work well with others who study chess but not so much with clever amateurs who just wing it as they go.
Yes exactly for a beginner like myself i would rather focus on being defensive by making sure i dont have any undefended pieces.

sorta true
@@ebojfmdboojoh4023 I always like to play chess more so aggressive than defensive and that has helped me. I feel like these openings are just a guide of what u could or what u should have in the back of ur mind. It should not be black and white tho (no pun) u have to improvise.
In my first few chess games against family members I just winged it and it worked at the time but as I played with more experienced players I wasn't getting better so I think this is helpful.
It's so crazy that the game from the Queen's gambit show is so popular everywhere already.
I'm glad the showrunners invented the game and quickly established an entire industry giving livelihood to a lot of people.
@@elvil lmao amazing reply.
Yeah it’s strange how there’s videos on UA-cam from years ago before the game in queens gambit got released to the public
@@Absolute-. it is how it is
@@Absolute-. its amazing how people try to ruin jokes. They MuSt HavE a time trAveL mAcHinE
6:45 That's an interesting looking knight ;)
LOL! I ve noticed that too! ^_^
I think that we're the only ones that have.
yep. a strange looking knight ^_^
What am I missing here??
Ooooh OK.. he says knight instead of pawn.........
haha lost it
"slav defence" whips out the speaker system and burn their enemies eardrums with hardbass
I thought the french defense is established when you move all of your own pices one line back
Afterwards u start a revolution against ur own king
Only french GMs can move pawns backwards.
@@kvadratbitter No, they can't. French pawns don't follow orders. They do what they want.
retreat like a frenchman..and italian
You can classify the french opening pretty easy: if your enemy is waving a white flag it's the french.
Thanks! Summary: If you are White,
QP: Queen's Gambit or London System
KP: King's Gambit, Ruy Lopez, or Fried Liver
If you are Black:
QP: Nimzo Indian or Slav
KP: Sicilian, French, or Caro Kann
please add time stamps

This is useful, thanks
@@neoir8514 or he is so good now he has become a chess piece
Perfect. This is the first video of yours that I had seen, and I was really excited when you mentioned being an aggressive player because that's also my preferred style.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely must include a few possible moves after what you've included. thanks!

I like fried liver with rice and gravy.
Lol
Chutia
I like noodles
With steak and onions for me. Thanks!
With a side of Knight!
yes! we want to see a top 10 of aggressive openings for white and black.
Thanks for all your vids
I would absolutely love to have an "agressive openings" video, please make one!
top ten aggressive openings for black please!
+Tristan Shelly
theres only like 5... good ones that is
YES all the stuff he dose is for white
Do the damn thing in recerse
Thanks.
what? king's indian defence is one of the most aggressive openings for black?
AWESOME VIDEO!!! sorry bout the caps but I've been looking for something like since I started playing in january. when it comes to learning new stuff I'm always really anxious to pick the best stuff and always look for lists, but never found anything. Thanks Kev!
can you do videos of maybe openings from other sides perspectives like how to respond to a certain opening
fried liver attack is a really great opening especially if you catch your opponent in a fork between a rook or a queen!
Great help, thanks! Maybe describe the 5-8 turns for each particular opening.
ya that would be helpful. I'm trying to learn how to set up all my pieces in the early game.
Thank you so much for the video on the top 10 chess openings. It was of so much help for me to understand the opening ideas.
Brilliant video. I always played 'Queens Gambit' from an early age, way before the internet and videos like these even existed. Looks like I picked it up well from the start.
Maybe it's time to get a girlfriend and stop bashing your bishop
Hey Kevin my names Carson. I just want to say that your videos are extremely helpful and I hope the best for you in your life and future chess career. :)
God you're such an ass kisser
@@thehomefront1905 tf
I watched this video back in January of 2017 and ever since I learned the London system it’s been nothing but steady progression
I like London system too🙃
Getting started with chess - thanks for the video
I've found an interest in Pawn to F4 Although not directly setting you up, It can de-clog that side of the board rather efficiently, and set up an interesting counter running slants. My usual opening for white is
Pawn -> f4
Pawn -> g3
Kings knight -> c3/g3 if needed.
And from there play around what your opponent does. The only risk is that of a firesale rush from Black queen, which pawn -> g3 stops long enough to castle or back door out.
Wowww, I'm always amazed by players who mastered a lot of openings and patterns in chess, it's very hard to memorize all of them, but when you memorize them you can counter some openings and can also easily find some tricks and traps❤️❤️
It's really muscle memory after having played thousands of games and contemplated so many different strategies and what's worked for you.
I've tried the King's Gambit before. I was board three for my college and after two weeks playing it I was demoted to board 4. Haha, I play Fried Liver Attack now. Love it.
Just started rly getting into chess but tysm for the vids im learning abunch 🙃✌️
I love the fried liver attack! I wasnt enjoying offensive gameplay before, but now I do. Its really fun and effective ^^
I would love agressive openings or traps!! please =)
Now that's exactly what I needed to know :D
Thanks a lot, for all videos, you rock!
Thank you so much for post this video!!!
I do these narurally without even realizing that they were actual openings with names.
Can you do a top 10 defensive openings?
My friend taught me the Veana gambit and i these openings look fun. I love the look of the kings gambit.
This was great, I picked my best three .. , Kings Gambit, Queens Gambit and #1. ...loved the Fried Liver attack!!
Kevin make a video on aggressive openings
I have used most of these just from trial and error. Sicilian defense is my favorite in the list.
Sicilian and Kings Indian exchange for me
FourTwenny I like chess but I didn't see the italian défense. O-O-O
I like using the fried liver and the ruy lopez those are the two i use the most im still a begginer only been playing steady for 6 months
Thanks a bunch Kevin, always look forward to your uploads
Thank you I would like to see more opening videos with aggressive edge
I'd like to see how to counter each of these openings. Nice.
Fried Liver attack is pretty easy to counter with 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6 4. Ng5 d5 5. Exd4 Na5
I would definitely like to see some videos on aggressive openings, especially if there's a good aggressive reply for black to 1. d4.
The Fried Liver Attack has been my favorite opening ever since watching your video on it. Won a lot of games with that one, usually very quickly if I run into someone who hasn't seen it before or doesn't know how to counter it properly.
And it almost seems like cheating to just count The Sicilian as one opening. There are so many completely different variations to it.
Honestly, I think by them opening 1.d4, they're initiating for a more passive game (most of the time; with exceptions like the blackmar gambit) being on the back foot means you have to regain tempo before being aggressive. So the opening you're looking for is definitely the nimzo-indian. It's probably black's most solid, and most aggressive response at the mid to highly skilled range. (around 1500+) or at least in my experience.
Edward Seine
yeah, d4 is definitely trying to initiate a passive game, which is exactly why I was looking for something that might take it the other way. Always good to at least have some options for forcing your opponent out of what they are comfortable with. I'll look into the ones you mentioned there(probably time for me to do some more serious study on openings in general anyway...)
SkyrimHod Try the dutch defense
SkyrimHod "yeah, d4 is definitely trying to initiate a passive game". That might literally be the dumbest thing I've ever seen in print, lol. You're obviously very weak and probably very young as well.
I dont know how good you are but...
Benko Gambit is an agressive answer to d4, so is Alapins Counter Gambit (the soundness can be argued however :P ).
Edit: Btw, its black that "choses" the Fried Liver Attack, so its actually not that good choise for an agressive player. Every other response to 5. exd5 will hand the initiative to black.
I really liked the Kings Gambit and I looked around, did you make a video on the deny lines? I run in to them a lot. And also, I loved the top 10 style!
I like Stonewall attack (which isn't included in the list but i still found it useful) and London system
i want to ask, is it really that necessary to know these openings? i mean if i know principles what i should (not) to do, these principles should guide me without my knowing to one of correct openings anyway, right? Please dont spellcheck me, im not native english speaker
i think English with c4 is very important too!
Interesting...
After Queens Gambit! Stirred that interest that started at 9 for me!
awesome video! really helpful for those who wanna enjoy friendly games on a decent amateur level. Can l only suggest for you to use another chessboard the graphics of this somewhat bother me. Anyway keep up the great work!
the fried liver attack is stunning (I am a beginner). Really love this move!!
I'm such an amateur that I've never even seen the first 2. Some of these really go over my head because the progression isn't what I would do or expect. Nice video though.
Same, but it's useful anyway. It's super interesting!
More top ten openings would be great!
I would like to see a couple if these openings explained further in depth please and thank you love the videos
He has videos for all of them in a lot of depth, theres links all over the video in annotations
hk78901 Personally, I find some of the explications a bit confusing. Being a beginner can't help but, maybe its time to redo some of them.
it would have been cool if there were timestamps on the description but the video is pretty dope nonetheless
I got a chess ad before this video XD
same
Little did this guy know that two years later his ads would always be tailored to his browsing preferences. Thank you Cookie Monster
Can't really find a video that explains even briefly the common plans for the most popular openings . That would be a most appreciated video
Thanks ! I've been using the karo kann this whole time and I didn't even know it.
Top ten defensive opennings
So many fucking openings
+Jasdeep Sadam Still you cant fuck any lel
Love your videos!! Could you please show some good white openings for passive players like me? Thanks
I only remember the Scandinavian Defense and Three/Four Knights Opening
The thing is I play against week opponents like myself, so the opponent never opens exactly in these ways so I dont know how to defend further...

I often play the fried liver attack
Good for you! Next time try the boiled kidney attack!
you are great the chess website I want u to make videos on black openings and how to improve your calculation
Thanks. That's so helpful.
I play the French Kiss opening followed by the Deep Purple Attack?
How the heck is this supposed help?
Please do a video on aggressive openings.
Me. Watched it last night in one sit. Such a good watch in many ways.
I've been using the Ruy Lopez for so long without knowing that that was what it was called :)
My grandma taught me how to play chess when I was 9 I liked it but there were no people close to me who do even my grandma prefers playing cards so I only played online and vs AI,after watching the queens gambit I found out that some of the moves that I use are called openings
Please make a video on quickest ways to check without the longevity. We need some quick checkmate without killing too many of the other side pieces.
I would like to see an "top10 ways to checkmate"
Queens Gambit just watch the damn series I'm hook
MAKE ANOTHER VIDEO PLEASE!!
Great video. Thanks man
This is very helpful thanks for the video!!!
Who started playing chess after watching the queens gambit on Netflix
I’ve been playing ever since middle school
fried liver is actually for begginers every one can counter it
Fried liver but if black does 3.Bc5 then Evans gambit
@@nifek7146 you realise that's just the Italian Game right?
True but it got me to 1800 on chess.com and then I had to make changes
That's just the Italian game with knight advancing forward
HyperionSc2 bruh I cant even beat a lvl 1 chess bot
I have a (chess) game at the end of March this year so this helped a lot
How did it go?
This video is good it helped me in mega final chess tournament
More top 10s!!
Jesus that intro
Slywolf1992 What is unusual with it?
I watched the whole serie in one day and we are here right now :D
That's impressive ChiwaX
That fried liver attack is ruthless, been trying it out today - seems to cause a lot of panic for people that presumably don't know the opening.
I agree. It's such a good opening and people don't know how to react to it appropriately.
I actually as white open with double fianchetto most of the time it is a rather flexible opening
This can be effective, depending on how you pronounce fianchetto (*_*)
gofer123guy noob
If you’re also into reading I would recommend a chess book called Grandmaster by David Klass. It is my all time favorite book and I don’t really read but this book is making me read more
Outstanding move

It's normal to get crushed in the beginning there is so many things to learn keep going and you'll progress for sure ! (sorry for my english that's not my natural language)
@harrypotterchampion calm down and use the phrase "sexist pig" for the idiots who deserve it. Plus, might I add, men get raped too, it is not a single gender issur

Go back to school dumbass.
More top tens please! This is an amazing idea. Use it. :)
please make another video about aggressive opening, hypermodern etc.

Thanks für creating and uploading. Nice Video and very instructive.
I move the far left pawn forward 2 and then bring the castle up on the rear and send another pawn foward followed by a knight
For King's Gambit you said Knight F4 but I think you meant Pawn F4, no?
