Jansen en Rekom claim to be 'experts' on this 'system'. The book only shows how far this is from the truth. I think, especially for younger player improving, the amount of bad analysis and assesments do more bad to your chess then it does good. 1900 players shouldnt write books if they 'forget' to use Rybka. People shouldn't take them serious.

Dont buy this book; if you are interested in these kind of structures go study ganes of Philidor; read Bauers book or play exd4! And read 'Geheimwaffe Philidor'. This book S U X. • to post comments. Great discussion, guys, keep it going.
I would like to add that in my opinion even if the Lion is perhaps not such a bad opening, it is really completely unlike the Pirc or the Alekhine. In the latter openings, Black tries to execute several strategic operations in response to moves by White, and Black definitely has a 'mind of his own' in these openings. But the Lion is actually the exact opposite in the sense that it is supposed to be played with the intention of IGNORING moves by White. Warcraft Dota Client here. Instead of a strategic approach, the Lion is merely a 'setup', a way to arrange your pieces in the first moves without hanging them or risking a fork or a pin.

Have you ever noticed how subtle move orders are in the Pirc or the Alekhine, and how different plans for White result in totally different setups for Black? All this is a characteristic of 'real' openings (in Michael's definition) but not for the Lion.
The Lion reduces chess to a cheap kind of one-size-fits-all and I'm sure this is the reason why so many chess lovers react so annoyed and even angry to this opening. • to post comments.
Raise Black Knights has a casting value of 5. If successfully cast, you can set up a unit of up to 5 Black Knights within 18' of the caster and more than 9' away.
Fully agree with Tim. There is no such thing as a water-tight defense against e4. I also dont understand all the fuzz about the name-giving. Just play your moves and try to thinkout a tactic or make a plan. Who gives a **** wheter its called Lion, Pirc, Philidor or whatever. And indeed, the set-ups given in this book cannot be critical.
But sure they are playable. Against a strong opponent however, someone who plays 'REAL' chess, as Tim calls it, you will end up worse playing this.
Or at least slightly worse against a nagging edge. Playing the 'great' openings and following GM-scheme's surely is the way to go. But in my experience many chessplayers find GM-openings such as Slav or QG 'dull' (a misconception) or they are afraid that they need to study a lot of books to be able to play them (another misconception).
I used to play a lot of non-critical lines, such as Colle for white. But against 'real' chess players, i didnt get any foot on the ground. Or worse: I already started cursing myself for playing this **** before we were at move 10.
It was only when I started to pick up the gauntlet and went for Nimzo's, Queens-gambits, Slav's etc. As white and threw my off-beat black-repertoire out of the window, that my own play come to a lift. Especially against strong opponents this is the way to go! Dont play Lions, Colle's, Philidor's, Budapests etc. Against strong opponents.
