Strategy against “pawn moves only” pushers

Ever play against someone who makes all pawn moves and doesn’t develop their pieces?

Frustrating because it locks down the board. You can’t hardly move an inch without running into pesky little pawns! 

They place them everywhere like little landmines while their pieces remain on the back ranks. 

But here’s how to beat them. Do your best to develop your own army while they are pushing pawns. Try to get your army mobilized for action as best you can considering the situation. Then wait for a chink in their armor! Because if they play that way, they WILL develop a crack somewhere. Then once you see it, pounce on it. Infiltrate! Queen infiltrations are nice! Keep pounding away at the chink till you have a hole big enough to drive a truck through. 

Any other ideas on strategies against pawn moves only pushers?

Here are some videos which might help you.

Also, feel free to check out my other videos as well

I’ll check ‘em out!

Great. I hope they help

U should never move any of your pawns just keep wasting moves by jumping your horseys back and forth , eventually they will run out of pawn moves and self destruct

Kind of like in the Alekhine chase variation?

Yes exactly , since the holes created by pawn pushes will eventually create a black hole for their king

I have mastered this already. I have a friend who has got to be at least 300 elo above me, and he always wins, but his grandfather is a complete pawn pusher and I absolutely destroy him. The weird thing is, my friend always loses against his grandfather. I, personally, think I am much better when it comes to people who like developing their pieces before attacking. With a pawn pusher, all I have to do is exactly what I want. I push my pieces into corners but their all developed. My friend‘s grandpa never really develops minor pieces as their blocked with his pawns. I win because I am able to stall enough, and can gather enough pawns to break a huge hole and checkmate him because I have so many pieces out. My friend can‘t win because he attacks too early. I think you will pretty much always win against a pawn pusher as long as you develop…

I really like the ideas you just posted! I will take due note and try to incorporate some of them!

Good stuff!

There's pawn pushing and then there's the London system... You can't exploit it, only cook up a nice line against it.

And speaking of the Alekhine chase variation, I’ve not had a lot of “luck” with it. 

Basically it boils down to they bring out their pesky knight, then you try to drive it into oblivion with your pesky pawns. Then you end up with overextended pawns. It’s craziness. I mean at first it’s fun to play “chase the horsey,” but can you really win with this?

I’ve not played it against real humans as far as I can recall, but only against my Novag Saphire hand-held. And it never misses a tactic. It has a “thousand eyes.”

Can you really win with this variation?
