Aggressive Repertoire against the Catalan, London & Jobava London
by IM Kushager Krishnater
In this course, IM Kushager Krishnater delivers a practical and combative repertoire for Black against three of White’s most popular and theoretically resilient systems: the Catalan, the London System, and the Jobava London. True to his trademark style, Krishnater prioritizes fresh, offbeat directions that take the opponent out of their comfort zone—without compromising on objective soundness.
Against the Catalan, Krishnater recommends a sharp and unexpected Stonewall setup with ...Ne4 and ...Be7, followed by an aggressive kingside plan featuring ...f5 and ...h5. This approach not only avoids mainstream theory but also creates early imbalances.
For the London System, you’ll discover a rare early ...Qb6 idea and a setup that denies White their typical smooth development. Even more striking is the recommendation against the Jobava London—an extremely rare h6/c5/Bg4 plan that lays a trap and generates quick counterplay. These systems are designed to be uncomfortable for White and easy to navigate for a prepared Black player.
This course is ideal for players looking to challenge mainstream 1.d4 setups with bold and surprising ideas. If you're tired of being stuck in symmetrical, quiet positions, this aggressive repertoire will offer you the tools to dictate the direction of the game from the early moves.
