“It simply isn’t an adventure worth telling if there aren’t any dragons.” – J.R.R. Tolkien
If you love fast development, early attacks and sharp positions, there’s only one opening to consider vs. 1.e4 – the Accelerated Dragon.
As the name suggests, the Accelerated Dragon improves on the standard Sicilian Defense Dragon variation by leaving out the d7-d6 move. Instead, Black gets to fianchetto his Dragon bishop and castle one move earlier.
Does Black lose anything by not playing …d6? No, Black actually GAINS by later playing d7-d5 in ONE move! That’s what makes the Accelerated Dragon one of the best chess openings for Black: a great position with dynamic possibilities and the luxury of an extra move!
