Master the black perspective with a simple, structure-focused repertoire, covering the Sicilian (Dragon), Grunfeld defense, and common anti-sicilian ideas, including transposition and flexible setups.
Practice the sicilian against e4 by applying central breaks with d5 and e5. Analyze white responses to c5 and develop plans for kingside pressure and d-file control.
Explore facing the Sicilian with the Maroczy Bind, compare 93 and c4 lines, and learn plans like f5 breaks, minor-piece activation, queen trades, and king-side attacks.
Explore the Rossolimo 3.Bb5 vs 3.Bc4, why bishop b5 isn’t Italian for black, how double pawns on c and e files arise, and key black setups with g6.
This lecture explains how black answers white's g3 setups by maintaining central pressure with d5 and c5, while developing knights and bishops.
Every time when you'll play with a black perspective it would be a little bit difficult because usually White side will chose the opening and you need to know how to react to it in a correct way. And this course will help you to build solid Repertoire for Black against everything White may play.
Every Opening from White covered. That's right - this is a lifetime repertoire covers every possible try from White in 6 hours video and you have the chance to train with PGN files which included inside the course.
So what's inside the course?
You’ll learn to fight 1.d4 and even 1.c4 and 1. Nf3 variations. Against 1.d4, your main weapon will be the Grunfeld defence well known for its tactical variations and of course, for one of the thoughest opening White to crack. This tried-and-true opening will stand up to master level play - and even offer a few nasty surprises to your opponents.
Against 1.e4, another opening with full of calculation stands for Sicilian. Well, the reason Sicilian you don't need to do much memorization as other openings and in most cases all you need would be to setup the simple structure. In the Anti-Sicilian variations Black often times plays with e6 structure which helps to cut off some theory and go straight to middlegames with good advantages.
Since this course full Repertoire for Black, of course our journey will stop at these openings. You'll also learn how to:
- Break up the London setup by playing with a sharp ...c5 pawn break
- Crush 1.b3 with double fianchetto setup
- Bust the Bird (1.f4) with amusingly annoying moves that will wreck White’s kingside
and more!
