Ok im just wondering, have i picked the two hardest openings to play as black? They are the Kings Indian against 1.d4, and the sicilian against 1.e4. This might be a stupid question but im just wondering.

Yeah i see what you mean. i think they do suit my style but i don't agree that the kings indian is easy to play?

ok i get what you mean now. thanks commenting. anyone else is still welcome to comment on what i am asking.

The sicilian and the KID are great for players who like to attack as black.  But yeah, they are hard to play and you will get burnt from time to time, even at high levels (Keres attack and early h4 variations of the KID spring to mind).

Here's an interesting example of a Keres attack played (relatively) correctly. I'll throw in some brief annotations.
