The English: Symmetrical, 2.Nf3 b6 (A30) is a notable English Opening variation, marked by the move b6. Traditionally favored by Howard Staunton, this system emphasizes flank control and flexibility.
Strategic Context: While g6 is the main choice, b6 offers a different perspective. It succeeds by maintaining a solid objective evaluation while changing the character of the game. This move prepares a queenside fianchetto. Plans should focus on how to control the long diagonal to exert lasting pressure and develop rapidly.
Next Steps: As the position develops, the priority becomes to control the long diagonal to exert lasting pressure.
Data Analysis: Statistical models suggest equality (Eval: -0.26), with decisive results likely.
