Chess.com is excited to announce the release of GM Fabiano Caruana's Ruy Lopez: Dark Archangel course, now available on Chessable. Consistently ranking as the world number two and widely known for his unparalleled opening preparation, Caruana is in a league of his own. He now unveils his secrets to fight for the full point from the black side of the Ruy Lopez, one of the most-played openings in chess.

Click the button below to access Caruana's free Short & Sweet Ruy Lopez course and enjoy 10 core lines of the Dark Archangel, plus 29 minutes of instructional video to get you started.

Caruana is one of the strongest and most successful players of the last two decades. Currently the world number two, he has also achieved the third-highest peak rating in history and is one of the few players who managed to qualify for the Candidates Tournament four times. In 2018, Caruana won the Candidates and drew 12 games against GM Magnus Carlsen before losing the World Championship match on tiebreaks—an episode that inspired Carlsen to single him out as his toughest World Championship opponent. Caruana's most recent success came earlier this week when he won his third U.S. Championship title.

In his first-ever Chessable course, Caruana will teach you the Archangel variation of the Ruy Lopez. Caruana has been playing this line actively for the past 14 years, including in recent games against Carlsen and GM Hikaru Nakamura. This is also the line that the young Indian GM Karthikeyan Murali employed to defeat Carlsen recently in the 2023 Qatar Open.

Caruana's Dark Archangel course will give you a full repertoire against the Ruy Lopez with the black pieces. More specifically, you will learn how to use the dark-squared bishop to slice through the chessboard and go for the opponent's king.
