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).

More good news for 1.e4 e5 aficionados! After his groundbreaking, Play the Marshall - Top-Level Repertoire for Black, GM Ivan Cheparinov provides another, no less principled solution to 1.e4 by sharing his analysis of the notoriously solid Petroff Defence 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6. Make no mistake – the Petroff is a solid and theoretically sound opening. However, the author manages time and again to spice things up by going for fresh, uncompromising lines whenever possible!

In this first part of his repertoire, IM Dejan Marjanovic builds a rock-solid yet highly ambitious system for White based on the Fianchetto Variation, arising after:
1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nf3 Bg7 4.g3 0-0 5.Bg2 d6 6.Nc3
This setup is not only positional and resilient, but also extremely annoying for KID players. Why? Because it avoids the typical KID pawn storms and sacrifices on the kingside—forcing Black into less familiar territory.
What makes this course truly special is the way IM Marjanovic blends deep strategic understanding with cutting-edge engine analysis. He consistently finds fresh ideas in critical positions, creating a modern and challenging repertoire that places serious practical pressure on Black.

We're excited to present a brand-new course by GM S.P. Sethuraman, offering a powerful and modern repertoire for Black based on the bold and dynamic Tarrasch Counter-Gambit — 1.d4 d5 2.c4 c5.
In this repertoire, GM Sethuraman explores a rare but aggressive response to the Queen’s Gambit. The move 2...c5 immediately challenges White’s center and offers Black a fast track to unbalanced positions filled with counterplay, initiative, and surprise value. The Tarrasch Counter-Gambit has gained new momentum in recent years, with elite players like Hikaru Nakamura, Vladimir Fedoseev, and Shakhriyar Mamedyarov using it across all formats.
