Sheva took a deep breath and tried to concentrate once he sat on the chair and faced his opponent. Ultimately, he frowned a little bit when the man, Brandon Clarke, started the game with the move pawn to C4, somehow feeling like his opponent had just stared at him nakedly.
Yeah, 1.c4 or English opponent was the opening system he studied the least, even with the help of the system inside his head and Sergei's coaching session. It was not like he looked down on the English Opening. However, it had only been a short time since the boy received proper guidance from Sergei, and there was no way he could learn all the opening systems in the world within that period. Leaving the English Opening was a calculated risk that he took, as in his mind, most of his opponents would opt for either 1.e4 or 1.d4.
