#18 who was he?

Tal.

Kalashnikov is good but you need to be prepared to play Sveshnikov and vs a bind. You also need to have an idea after 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Nc3 ,(In addition to 3. Bb5 which to my mind leads to an interesting game for both sides)

I don't agree that you have to be prepared to play a Sveshnikov. There are plenty of independent continuations that are completely fine.

I agree that you need something against the Rossolimo, though. Currently I'm playing 3...Na5 but I know at some point I'll need to learn an actual response to 3.Bb5.

I honestly do not know why you bring your minor pieces and pawns out early. They serve minor parts in the game. THe major pieces and king  are worth most, so bring them out early and crush your opponents.

I do not care if rooks may be worse in openings.

Here is an example

Yes there is a fork somewhere near move 13.

 

Most of these recommendations are supertheoretical.
Taimanov, Kan, Sveshnikov, Kalashnikov, Scheveningen, Paulsen.
Then again, it is the Sicilian.

I recommend first playing around with:

Snyder
Jalalabad
Mafia Defense
Lowenthal
Nimzowitsch
Mengarini (famous from the Queen's Gambit!)

So you get an experiential feeling of what it's about.

Kan do it any better.

I would recommend the Kan or Taimanov. They're much less theory-heavy as other variations, but still lead to comfortable and easy-to-play (well, compared to other Sicilians) positions for Black.

But of course, it all depends on what type of gameplay you enjoy. Experiment with different variations and find one that you enjoy playing. 

Yes, Kan or Taimanov scheme is easier to understand.

You can’t play Sicilian unless you remember all the theory and the pawn structures.  The only Sicilian that is simple is the Sicilian dragon. Keep in mind this is still very complex,  but it’s just simple compared to other Sicilians.  

Black has to think about every move option for white. In sicillian black will take the center easily but white will start attacking before black gets the center. I usually dont play sicillian but if you want to play you can try open sicillian.
