[01] Bird Defense
(Win The Game With A Rare Opening)

Bird Opening is an aggressive and creative flank opening for White, starting with 1.f4. It aims to control the e5-square and launch a kingside initiative, often surprising opponents who are unfamiliar with its ideas. Although slightly weakening the kingside, it offers rich attacking potential and unbalanced positions from the very start.
