Strategic Repertoire against Grunfeld Defense

Following the success of his first course, Strategical Repertoire Against King's Indian Defense – Part 1, IM Dejan Marjanovic continues building a powerful and practical White repertoire based on the Fianchetto System. This time, he targets one of Black’s most respected and dynamic defenses — the Grunfeld Defense. The starting position of the course arises after: 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nf3 Bg7 4.g3 0-0 5.Bg2. Here, IM Marjanovic covers both the classical Grunfeld move 5...d5 and the solid 5...c6 followed by ...d7-d5 (the Symmetrical Grunfeld).

Following the success of his first course, Strategical Repertoire Against King's Indian Defense – Part 1, IM Dejan Marjanovic continues building a powerful and practical White repertoire based on the Fianchetto System.

This time, he targets one of Black’s most respected and dynamic defenses — the Grunfeld Defense.

The starting position of the course arises after:
1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nf3 Bg7 4.g3 0-0 5.Bg2.
Here, IM Marjanovic covers both the classical Grunfeld move 5...d5 and the solid 5...c6 followed by ...d7-d5 (the Symmetrical Grunfeld).

Additionally, he dedicates two chapters to important King's Indian Defense setups that weren’t included in the previous course:

  • 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nf3 Bg7 4.g3 0-0 5.Bg2 d6 6.0-0 c5

  • 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nf3 Bg7 4.g3 0-0 5.Bg2 d6 6.0-0 Bg4

Staying true to his analytical style, IM Marjanovic combines deep engine analysis with human understanding, uncovering fresh ideas and strong concepts.
Even against a time-tested opening like the Grunfeld, White can create serious practical problems for Black and fight for an opening advantage without heavy memorization.
