If you like fighting for a win with Black then the Kings Indian Defense is the ideal opening weapon to face 1.d4 with. Despite an initial lack of space, Black has a multitude of pawn breaks and piece maneuvers to help get powerful attacking positions.
The King’s Indian has been used to great effect by World Champions Smyslov, Petrosian, Fischer and Kasparov and is employed by modern day Super GMs Radjabov and Nakamura.
In this 7 hour course, IM Christian Richter looks at the different ways Black can respond to White’s various plans, from the steady blocking of White’s Queenside expansion to the frenetic attacking lines where Black sacrifices material all over the board to get at the King.
With illustrative games, thematic tactics and key positional ideas revealed, IM Richter passes on his expertise to you in a clear and logical manner, making it easy to remember and repeat in your own games.
