The Kings Indian Defense
The King’s Indian Defense is a daring response to white’s 1. d4. Black gives up space in the center to develop quickly on the kingside and to set up a central counterattack on the dark-squares. When it goes well it can lead to vicious kingside attacks but if it fails, white will take everything on the queenside en route to a win. If you are interested in more complete opening knowledge or a fighting defense against 1.d4, this article is perfect for you!
