So what is your take then when it comes to the opening approach of the advantages of such system openings over let's say more mainline openings? What do you say?

Well to me I always say the same thing and to me playing system has been the only way because as many of you already know I started late And when I started, a lot of my opponents, they already had a very good repertoire.

Like, I remember the top kids at the Chess Academy, they already were playing these complicated lines of the Dragon Sicilian, and to me it was like, I remember seeing some sacrifices on C3, like to the Rook on C8, and then sacrifice.

And to me it was like, okay, if I have to invest time to learn all of this theory, which is very easy to forget, then how am I gonna learn what truly matters, which is the middle game and the end game? So...

Part because of that, but also part because by nature I'm very lazy.

I need something that is easy to learn, easy to implement, and that gives me an edge.

So that's why I started with the Pierce Defense and the Kinsey Indian Defense.

Nice.
