In the French Defense, Black generally surrenders the control of the center and let White have more control over center but it builds a strong wall of defense using pawns. The French Defense starts as:
1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5
Games generally involve jockeying for position. This way the center usually gets closed and there are two competing pawn chains. A sort of contest starts between the two players and each to outflank the other. It starts with White trying to play e5; Black defends and tries to play c5 or f6. In the process, Black's queen Bishop often becomes trapped and useless, and it's known as the "French Bishop".

Much like the French Defense, I would suggest trying out the "Ruy Lopez" or "Spanish" opening.
ReplyDeleteThese are the moves,
1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nc6
3. Bb5
It was named after Roy Lopez a 16th century clergyman.(A Clergyman is a spiritual leader of the Christian Church.) It was thought of being a bad opening until the late 1800s when a man named Jaenisch rediscovered its use. It's an awesome start to use against even the best chess players.
Here is a risky opening, used for the more brave chess players. It is called the King's Indian Defense. Here are the moves,
ReplyDelete1. d4 Nf6
2. c4 g6
3. Nc3 Bg7
Black starts off by letting white take the center board. Black will be interested in playing c5, and when White plays d5, reply with e6 and b5. It is a gutsy move but can lead to a quick domination over white. Can you say..."Checkmate!"
For black it’s always a tragic defence since there is availability of powers still it can’t be used to its maximum level. It’s like suicidal for black defence, but there are some sorts of players having skill to convert this defence to a kind of counter attack when opponent unexpected it.
