Up until resently, my worst opening to face was the Kings Indian Defense. I still struggle (even though i used to play it!!) Perhaps i just need a little study in that direction (perhaps, pah!) 😛

I'll happily play both sides of the KID. And I get good results with it on both sides.

The KID is supposedly very solid, there's just a lot of theory that goes along with it.

The 9. b4 (Bayonet Attack) line is insanely topical with various top GMs having differing opinions on the best play for both sides.
