Hi everyone, Stjepan here! Today, after 8 years, I'm starting a new opening series!
After more than 500 videos on openings, I'm starting over. I will create a better, more detailed opening series, which will cover theory, strategy, and provide resources for studying each opening. The new playlist is starting with the Caro-Kann, an introductory video https://youtu.be/67gr8tQwGrI which will be followed by 19 theoretical videos on these variations:
Classical Variation Karpov Variation Tartakower Variation Bronstein-Larsen Variation Gurgenidze System
**The 3 3.e5 Advance Variation systems:** Short Variation Tal Variation Van der Wiel Attack Bayonet Attack Botvinnik-Carls Defense Advance Caro-Kann with 4.c4 Bronstein Variation
**And 7 individual openings:** Fantasy Variation Exchange Variation Panov-Botvinnik Attack Accelerated Panov-Botvinnik Attack Breyer Variation Two Knights Attack Hillbilly Attack
After the Caro-Kann is over, I will be covering (in this order): **Spanish, Sicilian, London, King's Gambit, King's Indian, Italian, French, Dutch, Nimzo, Pirc, QGD, Scotch, Benoni, Grunfeld, Slav and Semi-Slav, and the English** until the end of 2026.
The entire series, once I cover every opening, will be over **1000 videos long**, it will cover every variation I'd failed to cover last time around, and all the ones I have covered will be redone in much more detail. The new series will have annotated PGN files for black and white separately, with full repertoires, and it will also cover the strategy and the resources for each variation of each opening! 365 new opening videos will be out in the next 365 days! Let me know what you think! All the best and thank you for being here all these years!
If you have any feedback or suggestions let me know. I will make sure to cover all openings properly this time, without bundling variations together, and without missing anything!
