Reign Supreme The King’s Indian Attack + PGN by FM Kamil Plichta

Dodging prep, avoiding main lines and getting Black straight out of book is the name of the game in the King’s Indian Attack.

And if it’s a good enough system for the great Bobby Fischer and the best chess coach in history, Mark Dvoretsky, you can rest assured it’s good enough for you.

UPDATED FOR 2020: FM Kamil Plichta just added 27 Quickstarter variations; a tricky alternative versus the Caro-Kann; new lines versus the French and …e6 Sicilian; and 3 new model games.

FIDE Master Kamil Plichta presents his new full repertoire based on Fischer’s favorite, the modern King’s Indian Attack with 1.e4.

FM Plichta utilizes his skills on our platform to bring you a complete learning package that comes everything you need to adopt this system with ease.

But, this is also a great addition for any 1. e4 player looking to spice up their repertoire with a simplified, positional set-up against the Sicilian or French!

King safety – guaranteed!

The KIA with 1.e4 is an approach brimming with flexibility that can be used to blunt Black’s prep while sticking to your favorite lines.

White totally avoids the complications of 1. Nf3 d5, which are not to everyone’s taste. Instead, we allow 1…e5, the Scandinavian and Alekhine’s Defense – but come armed with plans against them.

Reign Supreme: The King’s Indian Attack makes clear all the positive reasons to choose the KIA – and prepares you for the downsides.

✔️ Very few forced lines: meaning your opponent won’t be able to prepare with computer-like variations and you can outplay him or her in the middlegame and endgame.

✔️ Easy to learn: This opening is based more on plans and understanding than precise calculations.

✔️King safety guaranteed: Yes, you read that right! In the lines FM Plichta has chosen, attacks on your monarch are always objectively bad for your opponent.

✔️Hard to go wrong: If you make an inaccuracy or a mistake it usually means that you either lose the initiative or just guarantee equal chances for your opponent. On the other hand, if Black goes wrong – he is often mated!

FM Plichta also argues his KIA based on 1. e4 2. d3 3. Nd2 4. Ngf3 5. g3 6. Bg2 7. O-O is the perfect weapon for beating lower-rated players because:

– Your opponent can’t easily simplify the position;
– It leaves a ton of chances to outplay in the middlegame or in the endgame.

Our Polish master has taken inspiration not just from Fischer but from GM Hikaru Nakamura’s online blitz games – in which he uses the KIA a lot – and the Egyptian GM Amin Bassem, the first African to pass 2700 Fide.
