I had the black pieces here and the opening I chose is what I usually play against d4 which is called the KID/King’s Indian Defense and the setup my opponent played challenges my opening because of the pawn storm that’s about to happen. 7. Bg4 was a mistake according to stockfish because I had Bxh6! Qxh6 Ng4 Qh4 d5! To trade queens and remove the defender of f2 which is the queen and I would win a pawn with center space with d5. 10. exf3 is a mistake in my opinion because if gxf3 then the g file is open and white can just go with the h pawn and win by opening up the whole file. Remember when you’re doing a pawn storm, remember to always try to get tempi on pieces with your pawns, not push pawns in front of your king, and always remember to remember your goal in doing a pawn storm which is to make an open file for your rook to attack the opposing king. You may think that finding 18. Rxa2+ is hard, but one way I find out is too see the circumstances of the position and see if I have to do my attack fast and if I need to do my attack fast because my opponent is also attacking, I will consider sacrifices.
