Hey, sorry to bother you again @funnyanimatorjimtv, but I was wondering if you could create a chapter in your London System Study referring to the King's Indian Defense and how to take it down. I have a bit of trouble with the line I play because the opponent pushes h5 and my attack is broken down. Thank you so much and you don't have to do this, just saying. :) Thanks!!

Hi! The current line you play- is that the line I suggested in my Ideas In London System study? Do you mean when black plays 3...Bg7 or 3...d5? You have to play differently according to what black does.
If you're playing against a lower rated opponent then I do suggest you go with 3.Nc3 and try to attack and pressurize them. But if you're playing a higher rated player, you may want to play a bit more quietly and solidly, say, playing 3.e3 4.h3 5.Nf3 6.0-0 and then play your pawn to c4. You have a little more space on the queenside and active pieces, especially your London Bishop. This is the traditional way and you can find lots of good master games and YouTube videos on this variation. If you have any more questions, please ask and I'll try my best to answer :)
