Have No Fear Of The McDonnell Attack - Butcher Them!!

[@yahikouzumaki4955]

I've just encountered this opening and the plan given in this video will be very useful next time. Thanks!

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

Cheers Yahiko 👍

Thanks!

I am not a sicilian player, but the scandinavian defense sometimes transposes to the 3.e5 position if they advance the pawn instead of taking. This will be very helpful for dealing with that, thanks!

👏👏👏👏loving this Sicilian saga!!😍

Moin Mio, only the best greets from Germany to Serbia, mate. I really do appreciate your videos with this high-quality content. Especially your explicit (emotional) plus sometimes ironic comments to positions out of some chosen games of yours. Keep up that brilliant stuff, man....)) Cheers, mate.

Thanks my man! Cheers Germany 🇩🇪

Thank you !

You’re welcome 😇

[@youtubefarzan8045]

Thanks , it was really helpful

[@reubenr1143]

Thanks for your explanation of your setup against 3. e5 . As a Scandinavian player I reach this same position by transposition after 1. e4 d5 2. e5 c5 3. f4 and I didn't know the color- complex strategies associated with it.

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

You’re welcome Reuben! Those positions are good for Black!

The McDonnell Attack is very popular especially on blitz games, so great lecture and tips to fight against this line. Thanks Mio!! My best regards 👍🪓♟

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

Quite annoying one but quite easy for playing against when know what to do! 😉

[@blazsovdat8677]

i would like to see more patzer opening

We’ll make more Blaz soon 👍

[@TheSammie]

I just wanna know why after e4, c5, f4, the first recommendation isn't e5. Cuz according to my calcs, regardless if white plays fxe5 or not, i just play queen a4, king e2,queen xe4 then king f2. If queen attacked, just hop back with queen c6. If knight f3 after e5, you just take pawn. So i rlly wanna know why this isn't the first recommended move.

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

😳😂😂😂

[@TheSammie]

@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial seriously tho, why?

[@seamusoleary3712]

My surname is McDonnell and I hate when I get 'McDonnell Attacked' when I play the Sicilian.

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

😂

[@speederman9513]

Hello Mio, This is an excellent video on the McDonnell attack. I have faced it a few times and didn’t know what to do, so thank you for this. Just a quick question, instead of playing 2.d5, can you play 2.Nc3, hoping that the game will turn into the Grand Prix attack?

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

I know I am the best 😂🤭

[@speederman9513]

@miodrag perunovic Can you please clarify what you mean? I don’t quite understand….

[@lyubomirkirilov780]

One thing that you absolutely need to improve is to post the lines in description. I sometimes do not want to waste another 15 minutes after the first view of the game. An opportunity for improvement I guess.

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

Then, let me free yourself from your annoying emotions, don’t watch these videos anymore!

[@lyubomirkirilov780]

​@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial Typical Serbian. Always pretending to be right even when someone gives him a hint on how to be better. I like your videos, but 1 - you speak slow, you do not show all the key lines and offer a lot of useless information. Your analysis are not concise and thus, you miss to cover important side lines because of that. How can you miss the "hidden" 2. Kc3 line into McDonnell is beyond me.

[@MiodragPerunovicOfficial]

@Lyubomir Kirilov Could you please let me know what does this mean “typical Serbian”? From another point of view, you said how you don’t want to waste your precious time on the high quality videos that you get for free… What should I say now?! Typical Bulgarian/Russian(or whatever), wants to get everything for free!? I would never say so, but simply it is your style I guess… Anyways, thanks for giving me advice

[@kr0znik]

god I so hate f4 openings. thank you
