    Inside we’re trying to find the best training method and build the best course on top of it. Watch the introduction video for more info :)
    The King's Indian Setup, combined with the Pirc Defense, is a very easy Chess Opening especially for beginner to intermediate players. But even Grandmasters play it. We will learn the easier version tho. It will help you improve at chess, win and strategically and tactically dominate the game. If you want a higher rating, watch this guide on this opening. Oh and Subscribe.

    You've single-handedly turned chess into something I enjoy. 100% serious. I always used to play chess with my dad and that was a good time and all, but whenever I looked up strategy it was always like reading a PhD thesis-- super dry and dense (with a tinge of elitism as well). The way you present chess makes it into what it's supposed to be: a GAME. I like having all these little missions. Makes me understand the actual game plan, what makes it work and what makes it not work. Thank you

      The kings Indian can be played against most openings, but what you failed to realise is that it takes skill to play this opening.
      Allowing the opponent to gain a lot of space from you is really hard for beginners to deal with.
      So DONT PLAY THE KINGS INDIAN I DID IT AND SUCCEEDED THROUGH HARD WORK, BUT ITS EASIER TO JUST LEARN MORE OPENINGS.

    King's Indian is good for online games, but for OTB games, I would rather suggest playing the King's American where you just pull out a glock. It has a 100% success rate.

    As a chess coach (2100 FIDE, 2500 online) I find it extremely instructive how you make learning an opening easy to learn. You advocate some very bad plans sometimes as a way to cut corners which is totally ok for beginners. I will definitely get inspiration for my lessons thanks to this
