its great under 2000 very hard to play against people over 2000 and then playable once again once you are 2600.
Frankly it is a opening for provocative players that love to avoid mate by one move.
I think its main strength is hoping to make white overconfident, but that can be a great stregth indeed
A year ago i started playing again. Back then i didnt even know what a opening or notation was and i never played on a clock before. When i finally learned the first opening i ever heard and cared to learn about was the Pirc defense. I dont understand it 100% and dont know all the lines but i just wanted everyone's thoughts on it
