B08 — Pirc Defense

Classical System · ECO B08

The Pirc is a hypermodern defense. Instead of contesting the center with pawns, Black invites White to build one — then undermines it from the flanks. The Classical System (4.Nf3) is White's most principled reply: solid, flexible, and still dangerous.

Use → / ← or the buttons to step through the opening. After the last move, you can play it out yourself.
