Description of A FerociousOpening Repertoire
Former American Open Champion Cyrus Lakdawala presents a range of weapons for
White in a repertoire which is perfect for those who have little time for study, but enjoy
taking opponents out of their comfort zones and causing them problems from the outset.
The backbone of the repertoire is provided by the aggressive Veresov Opening (1 d4, 2
Nc3 and 3 Bg5) and this is accompanied by equally hostile options against other Black
defenses such as the French, Caro-Kann, Dutch, Benoni, Pirc and Philidor. These opening
weapons are ideal choices for those who revel in forcing opponents into chaotic or
uncomfortable positions.
