Hey, today, I will talk about the controversy of the London System
The London System - A very solid but CONTROVERSIAL opening. Why is that? Good question, lets talk about it. The London System is a mostly (OPINION OF MOST) boring opening. Its pawn structure, c3, d4, e3 and maybe f4 allows only RESTRICTING play. Sometimes, if you manage to open the position, maybe you will have a good game. But mostly, the game feels boring and stupid. It might be boring, but it is DEFENITELY solid (Carlsen's Game here - https://lichess.org/OIb1JcmFC ) . If you are wanting to play the London, but are feeling that you will bullied, tell those bullies that its not always "boring" and that its your choice and playstyle. It might be true that if you play other open openings, you might learn but its not a guarentee and you should do as you want! HOPE YOU LEARNED :) This is my first time typing a blog and I wanted to address this topic.
