Punch Back with Black…without the Theoretical Complications
White may have the first move, but it’ll be you who starts off the fun with this attacking opening repertoire for Black.
Pro chess coach and FIDE Master Midas Ratsma is back to finish his complete opening repertoire for club players. After delivering a punchy, practical, and popular repertoire for White, he’s struck gold once again, this time with the Black pieces.
Teaming up with fellow Dutch FIDE Master Mees van Osch, the duo covers every critical opening White could play – giving you a repertoire where you can bring the heat right away, without burning yourself out in endless memorization of theoretical lines.
Their emphasis on practical play, understanding the point of your opening, and tactical prowess are the recipe for a winning and extremely fun-to-play repertoire.
In fact, they designed this repertoire by focusing on the statistically most common responses from White at club level according to the databases – i.e., what you’re likely to see in actual games.
You’ll learn how to:
💥 Rip apart the Ruy Lopez with the Open Spanish variation – not only will you snatch a pawn right away, you’ll make White work hard to keep up with your rolling attack.
💥 Spice up the Queen’s Gambit with the Albin Countergambit – most club players simply won’t know how to deal with this tricky gambit, and you’re likely to break out a winning tactic right in the opening!
💥 Blow up the English with the Reverse Sicilian – watch your opponent’s eyes widen in disbelief to see how quickly you whip up an attack ‘out of nowhere’ against their 1.c4. But anything’s possible when you dominate the center like this!
💥 Wreck the Reti and other openings with the Reversed Jobava London System – this simple and amazingly versatile system can take down many White openings, where your knight and bishop set up many devious forking possibilities.
And more. If it’s a mainstream opening for White, or even not so mainstream, it’s covered!
Strengthen Your Tactics and Strategy in the Opening and Beyond
Tactics, tactics, tactics – they’re what win the vast majority games at club level. And that’s why for each opening, FMs Ratsma and Van Osch include tactical exercises thematic to that opening. Plus, you’ll get model games of each opening, showing how the pros took your same opening ideas and played them out for a win – giving you insights into how to play the middlegames and endgames.
FM Ratsma’s clear and detailed explanations for each move are what made his White repertoire so popular, and he’s done the same again for the Black repertoire. His above-and-beyond presentations make the video course a valuable asset for the ambitious player.
Kick off the fun without the endless theoretical study – get the Attacking Repertoire for Club Players for Black today.

The ideas taught in this course helped me defend against a brutal attack in my last tournament. I was able to secure the half-point once I defused the attack.

he would cover all possible silly reactions that could derail my well-thought opening, and how to deal with them
Cherline (verified owner) –
I’m still a fairly new adult learner and have looked at all the major courses and finally feel like I have an option that makes sense for my level and available time.

Even when one of my opponents didn’t follow theory, which often happens with beginners,

Wonderfully Structured and Organized Course
Kai (verified owner) –
Another problem I faced was during my well-planned opening, sometimes opponent would bring the queen out
Alan (verified owner) –
more importantly, when we have to make an exception to the standard plan, a very good explanation of what would happen if we didn’t do it,

I’ve only reviewed all the black lines but I am liking the author’s approach of adding exercises after each chapter to make sure you are looking at the positions themselves rather than just routinely memorizing the lines without absorbing the content of his commentary.
Zohar (verified owner) –
I appreciate the effort gone into it. It’s helped me become better at my openings and I’m looking forward to what he has next in store. Cheers.
Ryker (verified owner) –
For taking all the fun out of my chess games. I never thought anybody would be cruel enough to make winning so easy that chess has become boring.
Jackson (verified owner) –
keep repeating basic principles annoying number of times (sometimes say it with a beard then later repeat it without the beard 😁)

I am an expert rated chess player FIDE Rated 2306 who had the privilege to beta-test this wonderful course. I went through some of the chapters of this course namely,
Zane (verified owner) –
Really good course
Leo (verified owner) –
Now that I don’t need to invest much energy in the opening phase, I can concentrate on improving my middle and endgame play.
James (verified owner) –
At this level this course covers a sweet spot.
Michael (verified owner) –
I think many of these reviewers forget what it was like to be a beginner, or a casual player.
Yunis (verified owner) –
I bought this course with video few weeks ago (thanks to @JRHat for recommending it to me).
Dominic (verified owner) –
Even above beginner level, knowing the first ten moves is usually sufficient, and the variations in this course average nine moves.
Nolan (verified owner) –
Some courses handled the opening principles nicely
Bambang (verified owner) –
Also, this course is not aimed at advanced and master level therefore; it didn’t overwhelmed me with things that I don’t need to worry about at my level.
Richard (verified owner) –
I would never recommend this book to anybody that I would consider a beginner, and maybe not even a “casual” player (depending on the definition).
