How I Avoid Theory And Crush D4 Openings

[@T1J]

ima have to try this out. ive been using the stonewall defense against 1.d4 which is good if they passively let you get your set up, but they usually dont lol

[@chesswithGibby]

I've never played the stonewall before. How have you liked it?

[@T1J]

@@chesswithGibby its very fun and can lead to attacks/mates if you get your set up but it takes a while to get it set up and white can complicate things. its easier to play as white but i literally only picked it up to have something with black to play against d4. i hate that move lol

It's odd - I don't play the Budapest yet I play it's cousin the Tennyson Gambit (1. e4 d5 2. Nf3 dxe 3. Ng5 )

[@chesswithGibby]

Do you like the positions that are reached within that gambit?

Imma stick to every kings indian opening setup by following aman hambleton's speedrun.

[@chesswithGibby]

I might just check out those videos. When I was playing the kings Indian I usually watched Alex Banzea or Daniel Naroditsky.

Thanks for sharing and the encouragement. More precise movements would clean up the presentation and make the knowledge xfr easier to assimilate. …Or not. The adage: “Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth” comes to mind 😅

[@chesswithGibby]

Thank you!!!!
