Found this channel just a few weeks after starting my caro/slav journey. Couldn't ask for a better series. Very informative 😁
Thanks a lot! Glad you found me ❤️
caro kann is for normies
@@malubulul383what opening is not for normies?
@@literallysweden anything that is not caro kann or london
@@malubulul383 clearly you have not played the caro or london much. This openings can also be tactical and fun ifyou know how to play them
"this weaker computer does not feel the power of our iniative..."
Queue in bats and evil laughter
When I say that I’m usually comparing it to what I work with. It’s still better than most humans tho haha
😂bwahaha...I was about to comment on that quote myself, but you nailed it.
Glad I found this, you are really straight forward, instructive and explain your calculations with refreshing clarity. Got my first win with the Caro-Kann immediately after watching your rating climb, it’s now my go to response to e4. Keep ‘em coming.
Are you talking trash boy??
@@cookiemonster-nk3xb 😂
@@cookiemonster-nk3xb only took two years for somebody to notice! Lmao
I've gotten into the habit (sometimes) to play d6 against everything. May have to switch to c6. Thank you as always Count Dracul
I just started studying the Slav Defense deeper for White and this has helped a lot! Definitely looking forward to more videos like this.
Make sure to check out the whole playlist!
@@AlexBanzea Most definitely! 👊🏽
@@desmundreid3368 why do you punch me bro haha 👊
@@AlexBanzea It was meant as a Fist Bump. I apologize. 😆
hey. excellent stuff... do you have more videos on playing against d4? whether slav or qgd or anti london etc... would love to binge watch them,
Wait ! Why is it that when I search for some good videos on an opening I want to play I always find Alex covering it ? How is it possible ?
Heaven is taking care of poor little me, that is the only explanation.
Thank you, universe.
Why we cut out a lot of the Catalan game??
Slav defense is the most underrated good defense for beginners and intermediates
Will you be doing a Slav defense for Chessable?
I thought that taking the bishop out like you did in the first game is dangerous because there are some tricks with queen b3. Eric Rosen and Danya explain it. I may be wrong
If cxd5-Qb3, I go Nc6-Qxb7-Bd7-Bf4-e5!? as an interesting gambit that works well online. If Qb3 right away, I go Qb6-c5-Qc7-Bf4-Qc8 and those positions are pretty solid.
Loving your Slav and Caro series
Thanks a lot mate!
Great Video!
Vienna gambit/Vienna system speedrun!!
Will do an “ambush 1.e4” speedrun at some point!

Time you did another chessable from your you tube series....please!
Is Semi-Slav superior to Slav? Many GMs have recently only created semi-Slav courses. Why?
Semi Slav is one of the best openings against d4 for advanced over the board players. It’s probably fine for online games but there are lines with lots of theory, which is what the Chessable courses are for. In this video, we see semi slav structures with the pawn triangle but avoid the theory.
At 1:46 what is the "setting up a trap?
Nice video
Thank you 🙏
supernatural means things from beyond the natural world such as ghosts, angels, demons, etc.
Heheh I just made a similar comment. He is saying "super natural", not "supernatural". Confusing, I know.
Is a pirc climb too much to ask?
That is on the list!
It's fun how you always say "super natural." In English, supernatural means, much much more than natural - magical. So I keep looking for magical moves when you play "very natural" moves.
Oh...sh..
S U B S C R I B E ! If you want to get better at your play and as a bonus you do a good deed by helping an excellent content creator.
Can I request a queens gambit series?!
For white or black?
@@AlexBanzea for white. I love your Slav and Caro series as those are my openings as black. Former london player here who now does d4 c4
boring games geez
