Perelshteyn Eugene. Lifetime Repertoires: Hyper-Accelerated Dragon

Chessable, 2023.Three-Headed Pet DragonтBurns 1.e4 To A Crisp!This revolutionary repertoire combines three Sicilian Dragons to torch White’s most dangerous plans into ashes — and seize the full point with a fiery counterattack.It’s called Lifetime Repertoires: Hyper-Accelerated Dragon. The “pet opening” Grandmaster Eugene Perelshteyn learned from world-renowned theoretician and former top 10 player: Roman Dzindzichashvili.Right after adding Hyper-Accelerated to his repertoire, Perelshteyn experienced the biggest rating growth of his career, from 2372 to 2499 USCF in the span of 3 months and just 4 tournaments!He also played the Hyper-Accelerated Dragon to beat an up-and-coming Ray Robson (peak 2702 FIDE)...Outplay Alexei Shirov (peak 2755 FIDE and world #2)...And won the 2003 Generation Chess International, 2009 SPICE Cup Invitational, and other strong tournaments.At the core of the repertoire is a fusion between the Hyper-Accelerated Dragon, the Accelerated Dragon, and the Dragondorf. One which…Flies Past Enemy Aggression Through Smart Move Orders, Then Sets The Board Ablaze With Dynamic Play And Explosive Novelties.Here’s how the opening works:After 1.e4 c5 and nearly any second move by White, you’ll set up the Hyper-Accelerated Dragon with 2…g6. This way, you'll take control of the long diagonal at the earliest opportunity…And scorch reams of unnecessary theory from your prep by sidestepping Anti-Sicilians, like the Rossolimo and Maroczy Bind.Plus, the Hyper-Accelerated Dragon flies under the radar of most players, because 2…g6 is played in only 4% of Sicilian games.Bet your last dollar on your opponents blitzing out the most familiar plan, which plays right into your hands as you’ll see later.Next, you’ll be shown how to steer the game into the “endgame tabiya” of the Accelerated Dragon. One where your centralized king and bulletproof structure give you excellent winning chances.This alternative line is the perfect counter to the zealous but endgame-challenged tacticians in your club…But if the first player insists on waging war, then you’ll unleash the Dragondorf to fight fire with fire!For example, see the Yugoslav Attack pictured below. White launches a pawn storm against the black king, and invades the dark squares with the queen-and-bishop battery.Played 78% of the time, it’s the most popular and arguably the most dangerous plan versus the Classical Dragon…Introduction (1 variation).
