Yea, kings indian is passive and losing, that´s why Kasparov was worst player ever.
Kasparov gave up on the KIng's Indian Defense after this loss.

'King's Indian defense is riskier for black than King's Gambit for white' - Bronstein.
Fischer did not dare to play it against Botvinnik.
The KID is a great and very ambitious opening, but at the same time extremely complex positionally, and depressively theory-heavy.
i did not know that ;-;

The best defense is attack, if you play KID opening, then you will be under pressure and need to wait for counterattack or the opponent to blunder.
I always tell the opponent that bishop is used for attack but not defense, putting the bishop in second rank in the opening is completely useless. Bro this is the god opening I won 16 times in a row

Fischer's decision to play the Gruenfeld instead of the KID against Botvinnik in that 1962 Varna Olympiad match had nothing to do with the KID's soundness. Fischer simply didn't play openings that he considered unsound. The KID was part of Fischer's regular repertoire, therefore he considered it a sound opening.
... and the decision certainly had nothing to do with a game played 35 years later.
Fischer played the Gruenfeld against Botvinnik because he tended to reserve the Gruenfeld for his attempts at "Game of the Century". Witness his game against Byrne, six years earlier.

'I could see by the glint in his eye that he had come well armed for my King's Indian' - Fischer
Fischer avoided the King's Indian Defense altogether in the 1972 World Championship Match against Spassky.

The fact that Kings indian is not common amongst 2700+ players does not mean that it is whatever bad for club player. I use to play otb blitz every friday with my friend. I am e4 player but i play d4 against him because he allways plays KID and every single our game is very exciting and funny.
