Video sample: Grunfeld - Sidelines
Instead of forcing lines, Felix emphasises deep positional understanding and flexible structures, making it easy to transition into systems like the Réti or the English Opening. His recommended King’s Fianchetto provides a strong, reliable setup, perfect for players who prefer strategic play and flexibility rather than memorising long, complicated lines. In this Volume we discuss the Fianchetto Systems: King’s Indian, Grunfeld Defence, Modern Defence, Maroczy Defence, Quuen’s Indian, Hedgehog, Double Fianchetto, Dutch Defence and Sidelines.
