Imagine the moment, you're playing a guy that has same elo with you. You started with 1.e4 and opponent did g6. After g6, you did a several amount of moves for developing and black did modern defense opening. How to crush or take advantage against the modern defense?

Oh. so, which opening was good for modern defense

I would recommend the pseudo-Austrian attack if you want to immediately put a lot of pressure, however you need to study it, or black will just end up equalizing, if you want a low theory option then l would recommend the line  1. e4 g6 2. d4 Bg7 3. Nc3 d6 4. Bg5, which is kind of like the Byrne variation in the pirc, the 150 attack or 1. e4 g6 2. d4 Bg7 3. Nc3 d6 4. g3 * which will end up with a Svenishnikov system setup.

 

there are a lot of ways to play vs the Modern, but ultimately none of them allow a huge advantage because the modern is sound, just look through the database for lines that look good to you.

You cannot crush or take advantage. It is a solid defence.

Here is how Kasparov played

This is supposed to be one of the most dangerous systems against the Modern. Haven't learnt it myself yet because I'm too lazy
