In this video, IM Alex Astaneh is continuing the Caro-Kann Defense series with the Fantasy Variation. The Fantasy Variation can be reached with the move order 1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 and after white's move 3.f3, we have the Fantasy Variation on the board. After a couple of exchanges, white has a strong center with the pawns on the e4- and d4-square. In this video, you will learn from the black's perspective how to play against the Fantasy Variation.

How did you like this lesson? Let us know your questions and comments, we’ll be happy to answer them!
very well explained, you covered so many different lines that would usually come up in game, very instructive coaching!
Excellent and very good teaching. Thank you.
Do you have a video on the Bronstein larsen var of the Caro-Kaan?
Hi Alex, thank you for your teaching and I was able to surprise my friend with your idea of Bb4, and the game continue quite well. But in the next game, to avoid this, my friend played 4. a3 to prevent this, and I can't solve that problem. Do you have any idea?
Bless this man, ive been looking for black's response to the fantasy but all i was finding was white's perspective
Glad you found us 😉
Ikr same
actually im looking for the exact opposite lol
all I am finding in terms of whites perspective is if black plays into everything what white wants making it very easy for white
Chess engines exist
But engines don’t “explain” their moves or the thought process involved.
Excellent how you don't just show lines, but talk about ideas and plans.
Alex´s calm pedagogy is excellent!
Thanks!
Very under-rated video with some original analysis
Thanks for going into this line! I was looking at a different video, but the creator dismissed creating the early pawn triangle because of the "French bishop" situation. Thanks for covering how development is still possible for black's light-squared bishop!
Well, one of best explanations of Fantasy Variation I found for now. Thank you :)
Thanks, I faced the fantasy variation in a tournament. I was unfortunately unprepared and lost. It was the deciding game, which means that if I won the game. Then I would have won the tournament. Thank you for giving me some solid responses for black!
Excellent series Alex.
Happy to hear that! Stay tuned for the upcoming videos of the series.
Very instructive and well presented. Keep it coming
Very nice as usual
Very instructive video!
Keep going & best regards
Thanks! We always wanted to know which openings you have in your repertoire. Is the Caro-Kann Defense one of it?
@@Chessfactor Yes!
On 1.e4 I use the Caro-Kann and 1.d4 with QGD Janowsky variation.
Playing good chess is one of my fantasies that is too good to be true
Nice vid anyway❤️🔥
Keep watching our videos and your fantasies may come true 😀.
Most detailed opening tutorial. Hope you make a series on King’s Indian
Best Video of this opening
Very helpful video, thanks :)
Thanks 👍
I always mix my CARO - KANN DEFENSE 💯 & THE FRENCH DEFENSE 💯 because I can start my developing pieces 💯 & then castle KING 👑 SIDE EARLY 💯
there is only analisys on kc3 (( any other
Nice
terima kasih. salam dari Indonesia
Please show us Nf6 innovation on the classical line.
lol I play the fantasy variation as white. I do not mind the french move order if black plays Nf6 as after pushing the e pawn, as you said, white gets a good mainline french position. Bb4 is tougher to face, but most of the time black plays Nf6. Because the fantasy variation is rarely what black faces, he usually does not know much theory on it, which is dangerous for him, as it can be a dangerous variation and even not knowing the theory on any lines can lead to worse positions.
Nice !
Thanks!
Great lesson!
Very helpful
Hi Alex, can you please make a video on bd6 instead of bb4?
Awesome
Nice !!!
Follow the series and you will become a Caro-Kann expert 😉.
Why don't you examine : 1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.f3 e6 4.Nc3 Bb4 5.a3! with a very strong gambit idea similar to Blackmar Diemer gambit : 5. ... BxNc3 6.bxBc3 dxe4 7.Qe2!?
I tried to get into the website created acc with name and email then couldn't get in several times. What could be the reason. Thank you. Video excellent.
After e6 for black What do you think about the manœuver, g6, Bg7 and queenb6 to pressure the pawn on d4? (All black moves) or does that run into problem?
i would guess white can very easily play h4 h5 into this.
h4 is an idea not looked at here anyway.
Any endgame will favor white as they have two bishops
