Description
This opening is very popular at club levels because it is relatively easy to learn and minimise the need to learn lots of opening theory. Conceptually the opening has a high level of "independence" in that you can often play the setup independent of what the opponent does. However, there are particular move orders to consider if you don't want in particular the opponent's c8 bishop to be outside of the pawn chain. This course shows the different ways you can play the King's Indian attack depending on your preferences.
In terms of major "exponents", there are several World chess champion exponents of this opening "system". And it is a system because usually the center pawns are developed on e4 and d3, the Knights are on d2 and f3, and the King's bishop fianchettos at g2. This system creates a wide range of different plans. It is not always played in a particular sequence. You can use it for example to enrich your 1. e4 opening repertoire against certain defensive variations.
The legendary Bobby Fischer had a number of fantastic wins with the King's Indian attack. Among British Grandmasters, David Norwood regularly played either 1. g3 or 1. Nf3 and had King's Indian attack systems with huge success. The top Grandmaster exponents nowadays include Bassem Amin who is even a fully qualified doctor outside of chess, Tomasz Markowski, and Sergei Movsesian. Very high profile streamers such as Hikaru Nakamura also make use of systems openings such as the King's Indian attack as well as Nimzo-Larsen attack and others as a way of avoiding tricky opening preparation and making the opening phase a bit easier to play in general.
Bobby Fischer in his early years around 1956 played the King's Indian attack directly with 1. Nf3 followed by 2. g3. Usually in later years after 1956 played it within his 1. e4 repertoire e.g. 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 e6 3. d3. It was with his enrichment of 1.e4 that some of the most beautiful King's Indian attack games occurred and some of the most collected games on online sites are from the King's Indian attack opening. Also, Tigran Petrosian had some masterpiece games with the King's Indian attack system.
In theory, with the move 1. Nf3 the opening is a mirror image of the King's Indian defense, and so you would think the plans are similar. But because White has an extra tempo, and black is not at all obliged to set up a broad pawn center, it makes things in practice quite different from a normal King's Indian Defence.
The opening can help supplement any knowledge of systems like the Reti Opening, Catalan Opening, English Opening, and Nimzo-Larsen attack which means more transpositional destinations which you are potentially more familiar with than opponents, so have an informational advantage.
The "Barcza system" (pronounced "Bartsa") named after Gideon Barcza is when White plays 1. Nf3 to start off with which means that you get to play the King's Indian attack in more cases, but do allow setups by black where the c8 bishop can be outside of the black pawn chain. Although this has maximum "independence" for whatever black does, black can set up with a pawn structure on c6 and d5 to try and limit the g2 bishop which can feel like playing White against the dreaded London system :)
If you play 1.e4 to start off with then the only slight downside is that you are not guaranteed the classic Kings Indian Attack setup because black has options such as 1...d5 which make the King's Indian setup less appropriate and effective. However, if you know some lines against the Scandinavian, then the "anti-systems" against 1....e5 1...e6 1...c6 and 1...c5 are really great to know about to set up a position that is fairly reliable and not going into the opponent's theoretical preparations as much as they might have hoped for. Instead, you are in "your territory" - home advantage :)
So there are tradeoffs between playing either 1. Nf3 or 1. e4 first to consider. Kingscrusher's preference especially with the inclusion of the Glek system against 1...e5, is to use the King's Indian attack to enrich a 1.e4 repertoire and have maximum fun in general and good results :)
Who this course is for
Beginner to intermediate chess players who don't want to have to memorise lots of opening theory but still have fun positions to play from in the opening with some attacking prospects
Players who want to have a reliable opening system they can use largely independent of what the opponent does
Players who enjoy attacking chess and attacking pawn formations such as an e5 wedge pawn chain
Players who want the reassurance of an opening system with pedigree that former world chess champions such as Bobby Fischer, Tigran Petrosian and Mikhail Botvinnik have used as well as the current World chess champion Magnus Carlsen
Players who want time to improve their other skills and areas within chess such as being strong at the middlegame and endgame and want to only give a certain percentage of time to studying opening theory at least until other aspects of their game improve
Players who want to have a life outside of chess study but still be very competitive when they play either online or Over the board without too much worry of going into the opponent's detailed opening preparations and territories
