Croatian master Marko Makaj brings you a complete King’s Indian Defense repertoire to have you attacking your opponent right from the off.

The KID, the author notes, is for ambitious, sharp players who want to take the fight to the enemy.

In the right hands, it is a brutal system that hits back hard at white – and this is exactly what FM Makaj presents.

The opening choice is by reputation a dynamic counter-attack that became a favourite of former world champions Garry Kasparov, Bobby Fischer, and Mikhail Tal.

KID revival

The KID has also become a favourite of club players and been revived more recently by the American Super GM Hikaru Nakamura who has played it with great success along with GM Teimour Radjabov, and China’s new 2800 star Ding Liren.

Here, KID devotee FM Makaj brings his years of analysis and experience to Chessable with this set of personally chosen lines that take you deep into bones of this combative counter to 1.d4.

There are more than 400 trainable variations that cover every inch of the KID plus TONS of instruction to take you step-by-step through this opening.

– The Four Pawn Attack
– The Petrosian System
