<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoH2V650aTc&t=294">4:54</a> "Openings fall out of fashion due to the fact that the World Champion at the time plays or doesn't play the opening."<br>This is why the very concept of the opening was out of fashion between 1972 and 1975, and games actually started on move 15.

I haven't watched much Ben content recently, and I had to wait until the very end of the video, but glad to see Shankland is still catching strays 😂

well fabi said during the ding-gukesh match that the french has the best theoretical standing it had in a long time, so it's quite in style. fabi played it, ding did succesfully and many others started to play it.

When I was a chess kid in NYC in the the sixties the hotshots would blitz out this opening, calling it the Barza system. The Fischer game you showed is not in 60 Memorable Games but is covered in The Kings Indian Attack by Angus Dunnington.

I think Ben said it before, "if you forgot what the results were you lost."
