1…e6 Against Everything Chessable PGN Only by NM Bryan Tillis

This “One-Move-Fits-All” Repertoire for Black
Starts You on Rock-Solid Footing Every Game
— No Matter The Opening

It swaps the right pieces then breaks out the pawns at the right time. So you can equalize against any first move by White… while enjoying all the security you need to nurse a pleasant position to a won game.

As far as opening moves go, few can match the bang for the buck offered by …e7-e6 for Black.

It shields the king from attacks on the long diagonal… clears the way for the dark square bishop… and prepares …d7-d5, grabbing a share of the center.

So NM Bryan Tillis thought: “Let’s just play 1…e6 against any move by White, and guarantee ourselves a good game!”

Count on a robust game with 1…e6
no matter White’s opening

In 1…e6 Against Everything, Tillis draws from his decades-long coaching experience and delivers an all-in-one Black repertoire with…

Interconnected Opening Variations That
Streamline Your Learning!

“Interconnected” because these lines share similar pawn structures, piece maneuvers, and positional themes. Ones that have been developed from Tillis’ vast experience as a coach and with his students…gathering feedback from them and constantly improving the openings.

The same ideas repeat throughout the repertoire. So the more you learn it, the easier it is to learn and play the rest of the variations.

Let us show you what we mean:

Against 1.e4, you’ll secure the superior minor piece with the Rubinstein French. It gets rid of that bad “French bishop”… leaves you with more room for maneuvering…

The Rubinstein French quickly takes
out one of White’s active pieces

And sets up a “knight vs bishop” clash, so you can grind down White.

After eliminating White’s bishop pair, improving
the knight is your key to winning

You’ll also deny 1.d4 of its best strategies with a special version of the Queen’s Gambit Declined (QGD). It rules out White’s most popular, most challenging bishop move and its massive opening theory.

This modified QGD’s 3…h6 stops Bc1-g5 and
its theory-heavy variations for good

So your pieces develop faster… your pawns break through the center sooner… while you press for the win from the comfortable side of equality.

In this level position, your control of the 5th
rank and long diagonal lets you
play for an advantage

Now here’s the neat part:

These setups against 1.e4 and 1.d4 offer you plenty of ideas to take down other White openings. And Tillis shows you precisely which one to “borrow” for the occasion!

You’ll bust the Catalan’s center a la Rubinstein French, so your bishops can rule the wide open board…

Eliminate the London System’s pride – the f4 bishop – with strategic exchanges…

And fall back on the familiar e6-d5 pawn structure against 1.c4, 1.Nf3, and 1.b3.

Tillis also complements his interconnected opening lines with exercises and model games… keeping the repertoire’s must-know tactics and strategies on top of your mind.
