The Black Sniper: A Hypermodern Weapon for Attackers!
Charlie Storey
The Black Sniper is back – sharper and deadlier than ever! This dynamic system (1...g6, 2...Bg7, 3...c5 against 1.e4, 1.d4 and 1.c4) creates unpredictable, high-pressure positions, leaving opponents struggling to adapt.
• 9-Hour cutting-edge course – FM Charles Storey delivers fresh theory, practical lines, and strategic ideas.
• Pure chaos in the middlegame – tactical complexity favors the well-prepared sniper player.
• Football-inspired names – every 4th-move position is named after elite teams like Arsenal & Real Madrid for easy recall.
• Battle-tested success – created by a former England U16 Olympiad coach, used by UK champions & club players alike.
Who is this course for?
• Attacking players seeking sharp, double-edged fights.
• Club & tournament players needing a surprise weapon.
Master the Sniper – Embrace the Chaos!
