Opening Overview: Bird: 1..g6

The Bird: 1..g6 (A02) is a distinct Bird variation, defined by the move g6. Historically played by Bent Larsen, this system highlights control of e5 and kingside attacks.

Strategic Context: Instead of the standard e5, the player opts for g6. It succeeds by accepting a riskier evaluation to avoid heavy theory. This move strengthens the long diagonal control. Plans should focus on how to prioritize piece activity and king safety as lines open quickly and develop rapidly.

Next Steps: Going forward, the critical task is to prioritize piece activity and king safety as lines open quickly.

Data Analysis: Statistical models suggest equality (Eval: -0.32), with decisive results likely.
