The perfect weapon to start scoring as Black and humiliating these guys… is the Pirc Defense, a flexible and double-edged chess opening for Black. Bobby Fischer wasn’t afraid. It was 1962 and he was facing Viktor Korchnoi… and Korchnoi was hardly the strongest of the Russians… and to make things better, the guy had played the Pirc Defense! Bobby confidently developed his pieces and then licking his lips, he began what he thought was a strong pawn storm with 13.g4 — and this was his mistake. Viktor “the terrible” shook his head, shrugged, and picking up his bishop, captured on g4. Bobby was shocked and lost a crushing game. Bobby lost to the Pirc Defense because he, like most players, wasn’t prepared for it.
You see, most 1.e4 players spend all of their time studying the Sicilian, French, Caro Kann, 1…e5, and all of these “mainline” openings. IM Ratkovic Milovan knows different. In fact, according to IM Ratkovic, the Pirc Defense is a chess opening full of resources for black. It has simple but superb middlegame plans (again, for black!) and numerous ways for white to go wrong (see Fischer’s blunder for an example!).
The best thing? Like Fischer, NOBODY is prepared for it!
This is why IM Ratkovic created the Pirc Defense Chess Opening Mastermind, a step-by-step course on how you can make the Pirc Defense your secret chess weapon against 1.e4!
3 Reasons Why You Should Play the Pirc Defense:
- A Secret Weapon of Top Players! When guys like Fischer, Kramnik, or even Carlsen needed to score a vital win…it was often the Pirc Defense and its reputation for solid, but dynamic changes they’d turn to. At the club level, this opening will be a devastating weapon for you!
- Giving White the Center Only to then TEAR it DOWN! Watch as your opponent smugly puts all of his pawns in the center and then use IM Ratkovic’s technique to tear it down with equalizing the position immediately!
- VERY Easy to Learn…Even in a Single Weekend! This is not a Sicilian (Name), this repertoire gives you just a handful of easy-to-remember lines to learn, and then you’re done. Focus on your other openings, Pirc will take care of itself!
