Defining moves: 1. e4 Nf6 2. e5 Nd5 3. d4 d6 4. c4 Nb6 5. f4
White builds a massive four-pawn center to chase Black's pieces. Very sharp and tactically demanding for both sides.
How PawnPilot teaches the Alekhine's Defense
- See if you already play it. Import your games and the coach shows how often you reach this opening — and where you drift out of book.
- Learn the ideas, not just moves. Guided tours walk the main line with the plans behind each move.
- Drill it until it sticks. Spaced-repetition drills on each variation, scheduled exactly when you're about to forget.
- Punish the usual mistakes. Trap training covers the tricks club players actually fall for in this line.
