Grünfeld Defense: Lutikov Variation
Overview
Grünfeld Defense: Lutikov Variation is a specific line in the Closed & Semi-Closed Games family (ECO D80), arising from a recognised theoretical position.
The Closed & Semi-Closed Games group covers closed and semi-closed games — 1.d4 systems characterised by long strategic manoeuvring rather than early tactics.
It is reached after 7 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 g6 3. Nc3 d5 4. f3.
The line is a first-level refinement of Grünfeld Defense.
It continues primarily into one named line, Murrey Attack.
