Crush the London and come here to brag

As we all know, crushing the London is one of the highest forms of pleasure life can give us.

This thread is very simple. I want you to crush the London without any mercy, make the London player suffer, then come here to narrate the story, with as many details you can.

Post your victories with Black against the London in here.

Well then.

Very strange London, it 's not really typical, it 's some variation

Dis you watch some streamer's video where they tell to do the "hat" with the pawns?
I think you learned the version with c3, Bd3 and Nd2, which is what they recommend to beginners because they can play those moves almost regardless of what the opponent does.

I've drawn a game in an otb tournament but I don't think it can 'crush' the London.

No, with the pyramid pawns.
Your comment sounds negative, problem with streamer(s)?

Although, for a proper London system I guess my opponent should have castled kingside?

I agree. Crushing the London System, one of the most boring openings in all of chess (after the Petroff and Sicilian defenses) is the ultimate luxury and mental reward that a chess player would ever dream of. I've accomplished this achievement multiple times in my career, and I'm proud of myself telling you about my actual slyness.

Yeah, "pyramid", "hat" whatever, we mean the same thing, which is pawns on d4, c3 and e3. That's not the only way to play the London, it's just what is recommended for beginners since it's more solid and it kinda works whatever the opponent does.

Try harder! ;)

Move 10 Ba4 is, so far as I know, not don in the London, you need that B on the K side
Move 14 g4 is normally Nf3 to replace the other N

I don 't play it anymore because I lost too many games, maybe I will give it a try again
