New players can rest easy knowing that the London System is
well-grounded in time-tested principles of central control and quick development.

White starts by staking a claim in the center with d4, Bf4, and e3. He then quickly brings his pieces into play with c3, Bd3, and Nbd2. All logical and easy to understand.
Meanwhile, strong and experienced players need not worry about outgrowing the opening. The London System is
playable even at Super-GM level, with world champion Magnus Carlsen as its strongest proponent!
