Why is this hogwash of a thread so popular?
THis thread is by far the best source of in-depth chess analysis seen on this website. Dozens of games and the concepts, themes, and tactics they teach have been posted and analyzed in this thread. I’m sorry your beloved Sicilian is busted, but it’s time for you to accept the truth.

That was back in 2018. Now, more lines have been discovered giving White a solid advantage.

No way, the Alapin is a forced win. Most books for white don't even cover the c3 sicilian in this much detail
Exactly. They give a footnote, then saying "Black should have easy equality."
WRONG

Oh good. I need an advisor!
Hey staples, I feel this thread has got a LOT off topic, so maybe more analysis in terms of the Alapin Variation

no... the Alapin may be great and all. but if someone knows how to play against it will be a.much more.even game although the Alapin is definitely the best response to socilian
I have given my opinion. I would now like to open the discussion up to all chess.com members. What are your thoughts? Is the Alapin a refutation of the Sicilian Defense?

You are a leftist.
As in America.
The Alapin does NOT refute the Sicilian because it DEVIATES from the main lines of the Sicilian. It is an anti-Sicilian opening. ☝️☝️☝️
