    Very instructive! Repeating the principles and showing how to adapt the opening according to the opponent's moves is very helpful. The Stonewall also improved my attacking chess. Thanks a lot!

    These 500s always capturing your e4/e5 knight... At first I was like "oof - why are they so bad?" But then I realized they're just following the habits. Good for them sticking to good habits.

    Stonewall rule of thumb to keep in mind:
    17:17 for practical purposes always play ne4 before castling in positions like this! castling first gives them Ng5 Qe7 f4 which is annoying to attack.

    • @garagavia
      @garagavia ปีที่แล้ว

      This is a total noob question, but if he goes Ng5 why can't you just go Ne4? I get that he can take you on e4 with his knight, but isn't that ok after we take back?

    I'll be honest - didn't think I'd get much out of a video of Aman beating up 500s using the Stonewall, but it's amazing how instructive he consistently is. Great vid and keep em' coming!

    I've been playing the stonewall a bit after watching this. It is quite effective but it can be devastating to your own position if you play a move out of order. haha I'm still learning it.

  • @NajarinPrime

    2:19. 1.-----P-h6 ( instead of P-g6 ), and white still has the upper hand. 2.R-f3 P-f5, 3.R-g3 for starters.

    No. 2.P-h3 N-e3, 3.Q-e2 and the black knight is trapped.

    @madianantar7842 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I wonder how this opening will fair against higher rated players, especially since he's forcing this pawn structure even though, with correct counter play, she should be ending up with either a vulnerable king, a bad bishop or a damaged pawn structure. Like best case scenario a closed postion, and in a blitz game, winning or loosing in closed postions literally becomes a coin toss. This is going to be fun and interesting to watch once he's high up on the ladder
