The Neo-London-System - The sharper alternative to the popular London System

by Elisabeth Paehtz

Discover the Neo-London System – a creative and improved version of the classic London System! With the move 3.c3 and later Bf4, the Neo-London offers two decisive advantages:

  • Avoiding a certain black setup: You effectively prevent the dangerous combination of c5 and Qb6.
  • Risks for Black in the Bf5 variation: The popular Bf5 variation poses significant dangers for Black and can give the game an unexpected turn.

Creativity and novelties at the highest level:
The Neo-London System offers many new, creative possibilities to present your opponents with serious problems in the early stages of the game. Surprise your opponents with positions not yet thoroughly explored and refined by modern AI engines. The course provides numerous novelties and ideas and is significantly sharper, more forceful and more unpredictable than its predecessor.
