Wow, pretty sick attack warrior. I like those Ne2-f4 lines a lot (AS WHITE! lol). Join our Caro-Kann Study Group if you'd like.

Here's a question: Does the Caro-Kann have a propensity for heavy-piece endings? It seems that when I play the Caro-Kann, I might end up facing off with queens and rooks.

That's why you use the Flowchart Method to sort things out in the endgame, breaking down complex positions into current knowledge and familiar territory.

Then where did Luke Skywalker go?
Does your group cover the Bronstein-Larsen Caro-Kann? It seems like an unfamiliar line that has lots of dynamic possibilities for Black.
Actually not yet. We need somebody who knows this opening. Join us if you'd like.

A totally crazy game with the Caro. To be fair, my oponent is underrated, and it was more of a training game, but the material imbalance is studylike
Hi all. I am here because I prefer the center counter defense. It is very dynamic and can lead to a French position with a freed Lsquare bishop aswell as transposing into the caro kahn multiple times. I would like to learn the carokahn incase white declines my d-pawn.
Hi exomancer! I have had Scandinavians transpose into Panov lines. And often black's pawn structure is identical to a Caro-Kann. Join our Caro-Kann Study Group! You can find it under my profile or there may be a link somewhere on this thread. Thx!

I'm very confused... But I was working through some positions that can also transpose from CK and Centre-Counter openings. The Blackmar-Diemer Gambit as well as the Burns and Bronstien Variations with gxf6 pawn structure.
Just looking at my Modern Chess Openings 15th edition and I see that out of the 739 pages between 50 openings the centre counter has 3 pages to its name and the caro-kahn 25. The French has 47 and the sicilian 118.
What's the connection? My brain is failing, lol
