@@psychwolf7590 the advantage of this is you know your plan and what you have to do but the opponent doesn't. This is the first time or at least a few times he has faced this position. He must be having crazy time thinking what to play and there is time pressure so there is a high chance he end up blundering something. This happens with me a lot. I just memorise these openings and use them. Most of the time I have so much time and an advantageous position and I just get an easy win.

What if at 16:57 instead of white moving the bishop, cxd5, and after black takes the bishop, you push the pawn again with a fork. Then black takes the other c pawn with check. King moves next to the rook endangering it. The rook has to move, and then after pawn takes the knight on e7...white is one space away from queening. The king may be forced to not be able to castle.

Apparently 5...g6 is a missed win. I thought Levy made a good point about stopping Qh5+, but apparently it was better to just gun it and play e5 anyways. Thoughts on this? Because other than that, this obviously worked flawlessly.

you're responsible for my elo drop (I'm playing the london) ;-) and by the way: knight c6 is not very strong because you can pin it with bishop b5. you could also move your queen to a4, going into sortof a scandinavian defense (also pinning the knight). Then bring the bishop and you got backed-up x-rays to the king and the black bishop on the other side, that's scary!). On another note: The london player should just sack the pawn and get a knight to B5 to attack C7. Another note: 3:30 you can see, that black is completely underdeveloped and if white plays knights and bishops instead of pawns, it's game over for black. 4:24: How about queen B6?

I have played probably 8000 pirc games as black. Don’t pick it up it’s a bad opening if a player is even 100 points higher rated they just mate you nearly every time. They can repeat their main plan every single time. You want to play openings like e5 or c5 because there are so many different ways for black to play white can’t just repeat their default plan.

hey, levy, your video 2800 vs 2400, was really really cool. I can eventually reach a train of thought, I could even get to the same conclusions u had but with tripe the time which is ok for my level, but what I learned was I was missing the clarity you guys have compared to me. I always double tripe check moves and try to force "good-looking" moves even though I don't spot anything. after watching my video, I started trying to make my thoughts clear and have improved on-time management a lot, it felt insane. thanks for doing what you do!

What usually works for me against the London system is c5 on move 2 then delaying the capture of d4. I capture d4 after casting short. I do this because I feel like black's position is very fragile on closed plays. It's like one move and white gets +3 LOL so I try to settle first before breaking everything open.

I don't play London, so maybe my comment will show how little I fully understand it, but I remember learning at club that a fair trade of the dark-squared bishop is usually beneficial for White. In that sense, at 30:21, I would totally understand playing [5.Bxb8]. My feeling for the position is that you'll get an even trade of material, prevent the [6...e5] fork, get rid of the bad bishop that will be trapped in front of your pawn structure in the next few positional moves, and (perhaps most importantly) prevent Black from castling Queenside after [5...Rxb8], which allows you to better anticipate Black's defensive options. So while I agree that White should still be unhappy about losing so many tempos, I don't quite see the position being clearly better for Black, either.

Hey Levy, I have to share a recent experence of mine, because it wouldnt happen wout you. Actually I was quitting tournament chess like 7 years before. I was a ~1900 rated player, walking through all the youth tournaments and many international tournaments, I could even participate at European Championship which is amongst my best memories of my life. At around getting into university I felt saturation and I almost like quitted chess totally, only some National Division 2-3 games have been played/years, with less than more success. But This Spring, one of my friends started to inquire about chess and asked me for some parties, he sent me many tutorial videos, asking for my opinion and etc and I saw how insanely the ‘chess world’ changed. It gave me a huge push to start again. I was and English player with white, but I decided that I am going to totally renew my repertoire and refresh my knowledge. I switched back to e4 openings, because it gives the real joy of a chess match, I kept my main weapon Caro-Kann as black and I also added some new alternatives, mainly from youtube. It is insane to see how far you can get just by learning from KZbin. In our times it was unimagineable!! , like people, what is going on? Learning for free dozens of lines you and surely even your opponents never heard about... well all I want to say is I was always struggling against d4, and now I have well-built lines against it, when even 2000+ players are struggling against. I just arrived home from an international competition, I was playing in a very good form, even reaching the top tables and playing against my 2400 rated master. At the very last round I played this f6 line against this disgusting London system, where I played one of my best matches ever. Actually it ended with 2 kings after 260 minutes, only I can be blamed for that, but the battle was so intense. After g6 my 2000+ rated opponent thought he won, I saw his face, and just after Bf5 everything he thought changed. It was crazy to see. At the point when just 2 kings remained, all the people in the hall applauded. I never experienced anything like it before. So I would like to say a massive thank you for all your work. And not only for you, for everyone who is doing this for the people, all the content creators.

Looking at 4:15, why would it be good for black's knight to take the bishop? Doesn't that just open the h file for white? I know in other lines white will try to provoke black's bishop to capture in that same spot to open up for the rook
