As a 1. d4 player, I've found pretty good ways of playing all of the responses by black, but there's a particular opening I'm having a lot of trouble with... The King's Indian Defense, 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 g6 3. Nc3 Bg7.
I have tried a few different systems, including...
-Mainline Classical (4.e4)(9.Ne1)
-Fianchetto Variation (4.e4)(6.g3)
-Mainline Bishop (4.e4)(9.Bg5)
-Saemisch System (5.f3)
-Smyslov System (4.Nf3...5.Bg5...6.e3)
And in general, all of these systems allow the furious kingside attack that characterizes the King's Indian. I'm wondering if anyone has any other systems they'd recommend to use against the K.I.D. Feedback is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I'm not saying I want to completely change my opening repertoire, switch to 1.e4, play completely different moves etc. What I'm looking for is something against the King's Indian Defense move order. If I can find something good against King's Indian Defense I'll be very happy.
Happy Checkmating!
