    • @fakecubed
      @fakecubed 4 роки тому +3

      I don’t dispute that one’s opening repertoire is a matter of personal preference. I’m just saying that for me, I could not be happier playing the Dutch over KID (which I barely remember now anyway). It meets literally everything I wanted in an opening when I decided to change up my response to 1.d4. Something a little bit uncommon, but perfectly viable with good attacking chances for black to fight to win from the start. In my experience, I’m able to know it a *lot* better than my 1.d4 opponents and win right in the opening. At my level that’s beautiful, and even at much higher levels I’m told by fellow Dutch players that it is typical the latest Dutch theory is not commonly known even by most grandmasters. Only a few know it and play it, but there are Dutch players among the chess elite so it’s clearly viable.
      When I did play the KID, I never once thought my opponents hadn’t played against it many times.

    I don't know if suggestions are still being accepted here, but an opening video on the Nimzo would be awesome. There's so many potential pawn structures that can arise (does black play c5 or d5 or both? does he play d6 and e5?) that it's hard to establish a "typical" plan I feel like.

    @footballanalysis1473 7 років тому +1

    King Indian Defense is easy defeated if white plays C4 (Back To B3 if forced) to attack the black king side.. So, black will be very difficult to build up his attack on king side properly.. So for a more secure King Indian Defense as black, before launching those knight to attack king side.. Moving those pawn on queen side to secure C4, B3 or even A2 so that white bishop cannot control F7 D6 E5 square is very important.. And don't fear of exchange something even rooks except queen to get opponent white bishop because it's the main threat to fail our King Indian Defense strategy to launch attack properly on king side.. Moving those queen side pawns is extremely important in my opinion.. I comment this because experience it a lot of times.. Not bullshit at all..
