Crush the Dragon! by NM Elijah Logozar

Slaying the Dragon, Down to a Science!

If the Sicilian Dragons are roasting your king a little too frequently, here’s a short course that will give you the perfect sword to slay them with!

It doesn’t matter which one…

✅ Classical Dragon
✅ Accelerated Dragon
✅ Hyper-Accelerated Dragon
✅ Dragondorf
✅ ‘Chinese Dragon’

NM Elijah Logozar brings you a compact kit to crush them all.

The foundation for your Excalibur against the Dragon is the tried-and-true Yugoslav Attack.

It’s been proven throughout the decades as the most reliable weapon against the Dragon. And it’s also the canvas of some of the most fun, tactical and brilliant masterpieces in the game of chess.

You’ll race your g- and h-pawns towards Black’s castle, ready to pry open the g-file like a crowbar. From there, your well-placed pieces will be ready to ‘sac-sac-mate’ in Fischer style.

NM Logozar explains in thorough detail the most accurate ways to carry out your attack without it backfiring.

He’ll also teach you how to combat other versions of the Dragon – such as the Accelerated and Hyper-accelerated Dragons – with the Maroczy Bind. Dominating the center with pawns on e4 and c4, you’ll deny the tactics the Dragon practitioners live for, and have a free hand to attack.

And as if that weren’t enough, he’ll walk you through how to combat Dragon variants such as the Dragondorf and so-called ‘Chinese Dragon’, plus 10 other Dragon sidelines.

Combine that with annotated model games to show you the attacks from start to finish in actual practice, and you have a comprehensive Dragon slaying kit in under 100 lines. The convincing recommendations, thorough instruction, and manageable study load will show you why Logozar is one of Chessable’s favorite community authors.
