Grandmaster Alex Colovic has one of the biggest and most faithful followings in Chessable. His secret? Tidy beginner-friendly guides to complex masters’ openings.
Mind you, this is the man who took the razor-sharp Najdorf Sicilian and made it understandable for players of all levels
in over 100 trainable lines.
Well, after countless fan requests, he finally took back the Simplified format to bring you the 1.d4 Najdorf’s spiritual sister: the King’s Indian Defense.
In The King’s Indian: Simplified, GM Colovic once more condenses a deep strategical universe into a digestible size. Moreover, he tames it so that club players can understand and play it confidently!
There’s only a way to do that.
Quality over Quantity
Focus on the core ideas
Instead of memorizing complicated lines, you’ll learn in-depth about
the concepts that make the King’s Indian tick.
How to press White’s center? How to attack White’s kingside? How to transform the pawn structure? The essential plans and ideas you need to know to understand the KID like the back of your hand.
And now, you can have a bitesize sample with this
Short & Sweet: the King’s Indian.
It covers the Fianchetto, Saemish, Classical, Exchange, and the Averbakh Variations, plus the Makagonov and Petrosian systems, and the Four Pawns Attack.
It’s only 20 trainable lines, but its real value lies in
what you'll learn inside the variations.
You see, Alex has mastered the art of delivering knowledge of the main ideas in every variation so that you are never learning just moves but the strategical reasons behind them.
And 20 is a long enough sample to build you a
repertoire of King’s Indian ideas that you can use in any position.
Even in those that the course doesn’t cover! With Alex’s focus on explaining the basics and copious explanations, you’ll always feel comfortable in the KID.
That last trait of his style means that if you could only get one hour of King’s Indian video instruction, then
GM Colovic would be the perfect coach for that hour. And this free course offers it to you!
So sign up for Short & Sweet: The King’s Indian today, and start understanding a fighting opening against 1.d4 the easy way!
