Overview
Learn How to Play the Modern Defense
Renowned coach IM Milovan Ratkovic reveals the ultimate “quickstart” chess course on the Modern Defense. He covers the main move orders, attacking plans and strategic blueprints you can implement in your own games.
So your opponent plays 1.e4 and you think to yourself: “Here we go again!” – preparing yourself to fend off the attack – no matter how brutal it is.
Sometimes you hold them off and win, sometimes they checkmate you.
Sometimes you remember all the theory, sometimes you forget something and it’s a disaster.
We know the feeling, don’t worry.
What if you could SKIP the theory and jump straight to your favorite positions?
Where you start from positions you’ve practiced at home, where you know the plans and feel very comfortable.
With the Modern Defense, you can do just this.
In the Modern Defense, White plays 1.e4 and you quietly fianchetto your Bishop, and then depending on what he does, you use one of a handful of plans to dismantle his center, attack his king, or both!
Sounds great, right? Are you ready to give it a try?
IM Milovan Ratkovic has released this 10-hour mastermind covering move orders, attacking plans, and strategic blueprints you can implement in your own games.
You will learn how to:
- Respond with FORCE Against ALL Flank Attacks! The biggest danger in the Modern Defense is that pesky kingside h4/g4 pawn storm…IM Ratkovic shares the perfect remedy to this with direct and dynamic action in the center.
- Remember PLANS, not Theory! You’ll learn to approach the opening thinking “shall I adopt this plan or that plan?” – NOT rote memorization of lines. This result is much greater mastery of positions!
- Attack Without Risk! Placing that bishop in front of your king gives a lot of safety…the same cannot be said for WHITE’S king! IM Ratkovic serves up several attacking plans you can adopt to terrorize him before he even gets close to breaking through!
Add to your 10 hours of high-quality video lessons a complete PGN file of ALL analysis and you’re armed with all you need to get great, comfortable positions as black…no matter what White tries!
