The Dutch Defense often involves attacking on the kingside via a pawn-storm.

But he was quite right, every opening can lead to kingside attack...
We could enumerate dozens or hundreds variations, what would be the point?

The KID for Black has some variations that involve a pawn storm on the kingside.

The way you showed it is almost an automatic win for white.
Black plays the dragon with ideas such as ...Qa5, Rc8, Be6, Ne5, b5-b4. a5-a4 is terrible.
@yuri I believe he is implying you have a trolling record, to crumble your credibility
Of course every opening has that potential but ; in some openings its rare; and potentially unsuccesfull..
Myself, I play the King's indian defense with Black and the King's indian attack system with White.
The main line of the first one (KID) is well known for:
- closed center
- pawn storm towards White kingside castle
- insane pieces sacrifices
The main line of the other one (KIA) is well known for:
- closed center
- pieces manoeuvers towards Black kingside castle
- insane pieces sacrifices on the center pawns chain or on the White castle
Both are aggressive, sidelines involve equally interesting dynamic play, if your opponent refuses to fight then the exchange variations are in your favour, and as quality brand the KID and the KIA have been played by Bobby Fischer.
Warning: though you are likely to see the same patterns again and again (sometimes both with White and Black), the KID and the KIA require as much work as any other opening to be handled.
Besides, I don't recommend them to absolute beginners: they are hypermodern openings and if you are inexperienced, you are likely to quickly get a cramped position without finding the good moves.
