A Complete 1.e4 e5 Repertoire For Black
Inspired By Fabiano Caruana
Magnus Carlsen faced one of his toughest challenges yet from American super GM Fabiano Caruana during the 2018 World Championship match in London. To mark this incredible and intense match, we published an exclusive new Petroff repertoire inspired by the challenger.
Here our popular Chessable author and German IM Christof Sielecki, aka ChessExplained, presents a new e4-e5 repertoire based on the lines Caruana used to qualify.
A Cutting-Edge Opening
As all chess fans know, Caruana has almost single-handedly revived the Petroff.
It was considered an old, romantic opening that had fallen out of fashion – not now.
After impressive results at elite tournaments in 2017 and 2018, Caruana’s innovations in the Petroff are without a doubt the opening lines everyone is talking about. Sielecki ‘bottled’ Caruana’s cutting-edge opening insights into 673 trainable variations, PLUS…
Updated For 2021: The course now has a Quickstarter Guide with 45 core lines and 2.5 hours of video — so you can start playing the Petroff in the shortest time possible. PLUS, IM Sielecki also brings a brand new chapter based on the same lines Caruana used to neutralize Carlsen.
Caruana’s Pet – The Petroff Defense
Sound and solid, Caruana has deployed the Petroff against giants of the modern game like Wesley So and the world champion himself.
Caruana even used it in his crucial final match in the Berlin Candidates tournament that won him the right to take on Carlsen.
The opening has also recently been adopted by a cohort of Chinese grandmasters including Ding Liren, Yu Yangyi and women’s number one Hou Yifan.
And, while Caruana has given this opening a very modern turn, veterans like Michael Adams and Vladimir Kramnik also have the Petroff in their arsenals.
In this MoveTrainer® course exclusive to Chessable, IM Sielecki has painstakingly pieced together Caruana’s novelties and new lines into a full repertoire covering everything Black needs to know after e4-e5.
His suggestions are based on research by a man bidding to be world champion and come with full explanations detailing all White’s tries and how to counter them.

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.

I have tried a few free and paid repertoire courses but I continued to face a challenge with them

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.

keep repeating basic principles annoying number of times (sometimes say it with a beard then later repeat it without the beard 😁)

Now that I don’t need to invest much energy in the opening phase, I can concentrate on improving my middle and endgame play.

Some courses handled the opening principles nicely
