Informative video as always. I play 1. d4 mostly, so when I do play 1. c4, I usually want to play something "different" and avoid transposing into the Queen's Gambit, or Carlsbad structure. This was a nice video to highlight some key themes of the English Opening.

Thanks! Sicilian is already in progress. Should be done and published in a week (the worst case scenario). Although it is going to be only basic of the basics behind Sicilian.

Words cannot describe how great these videos are! Very concise, much better than binging countless hours of mediocre content. This is on point and very instructive. Thank you so much. Really among the very best chess content for people who do not merely seek shallow entertainment, but serious improvement of their game!

Thanks for the video. Do you think 1 c4 is appropriate for sub 2000 or do you prefer your students at that level to stick to 1 e4 or 1 d4?
@BadBishopChess
7 ай бұрын
Thank you! The question is excellent (and difficult to answer). Surely, 1.c4 works better on higher levels (since it is mainly positional), but those of 1900 should be able to understand this opening quite well. Also, there are a lot of transpositions or similarities to other openings (mainly those starting with 1.d4) which is difficult to learn and understand if a student is, say, under 1400. But if it is someone of about 1600 or 1700, I'd support them if they would want to explore and play 1.c4.

Great ideas! Some small thing about the English I like is that there are no gambits Black can play against it! (please correct me if I'm wrong)

Thanks! You are probably right, I can't think of any gambit after 1.c4 🤔 at the moment.

@@BadBishopChess Maybe 1. c4 b5!? with similar play to a Benko Gambit, but it is true that the English Opening has less gambits to be studied than more common opening moves like 1. e4 e5.

Love this video will use this opening. One thing though when you switch from the brown board to the white and green board it is very disorienting to go from one side of the screen to the other. I would like it if the board stayed on one side of the screen, but this is small criticism I love the video.

Thanks for the tip! I also was not sure about changing the color of the second board into green, and also switching sides came to my mind as unnecessary. Will think of what to do about it next time, probably the second board is gonna be on the same side where the live board is. I'd also like to know what you guys think about colors, especially the colors of the board. Should both of them be green, or both brown?
