    The fantasy is one of those kind of openings where you either are super inspired in all the tactical postions it leads to, or you deeply regret choosing it when faced with a dark ocean of variations 😅

    • @marcofrey2903

      Very true. Many of the variations ARENT as tactical. Like when they close it off with e6. Then chess needs to be played.

    This is really helpful as a Fantasy convert. I used to play the Van der Weil attack and just found it too abstract, even if it's a bit more promising. It often involves playing with more space, attacking with pawns rather than pieces, and often leaving the king uncastled, all things that made it really chaotic.

    Hey Danya, just wanted to thank you for all the amazing instructive content you have been giving us for the past several years, I really learnt a lot from your speedruns as well as your pawn endgame series. It really shows how much care and preparation went it to that series! I also had an opening question. When you have your bishop on c4, when is it bad to allow b5 supported by a6 or c6, and when is it worth it to play a4? For example in the najdorf sicilian, I often get scared that b5 b4 will force my knight away from c3 where it defends the e4 pawn but the engine says its fine to allow b4. I also see a lot of players dropping the bishop immediatly back to b3 in various sicilians. There is also the case Kalashnikov where I fear b5 with both knight on a3 and c3 but apparently its fine also. However in other cramped positions where black players an early c6 in speedrun videos, I have seen you go for a4 preventing b5 and I dont really understand the subtlety of when it is ok to allow b5. Thanks again for all the amazing content :)

    What an incredibly shortsighted thought, to say someone cheated after a game like that (in some of the comments). If you've ever studied an opening seriously, like on Chessable, you'll find that lower rated opponents never play the critical lines because they dont find them. Now this opponent is playing the likes of Danya and he finally gets to play all those lines he memorised..
    Gets an advantage over Danya who gets some comp for his lost piece and eventually loses because he reached a massively sharp position against one the highest rated blitz players on the planet..

    This fantasy variation looks like new Stafford gambit.. It is really good for the tactical player but it can backfire anytime.. 👍👍

      Except the Stafford is dubious and the Fantasy is equal for both and offers a lot of chances for white

    It's key that black caught white out, it was never really threatening anything. Whites king safety was the deciding factor even with a 'blunder'.
