Torre attack vs London system
Sort:
As a 600 rated player, when should I choose the Torre over the London. The Torre seems pretty aggressive and, to me, doesn’t seem to have as much potential as the London as it’s just an attack on the knight and has the potential to damage the pawn structure. The London in comparison is more passive but allows for greater development without having to move too much.
Neither are just playing a structure and pattern. If you want to play them well you need to know what to do against what your oponent is doing. If you have the London then you have a choice of Jobava and regular London. You also have a choice of Trompovsky or Torre. They all have slightly different ideas. Finally in the QG you can still get your dsb out if you play different move orders. Have fun with them.
