Magnus has played the Norwegian Rat since 2010, but in recent years has scored 4 wins and 1loss in World Championship Blitz Events, including wins versus Anand and Caruana!

In the last two years, he began employing the Norwegian Rat in his 13 part Chess24.com Banter Blitz series while taunting his opponents “Can anyone equalize against the Rat?” While crushing GMs rated from 2500 to 3200 as well as non-masters, Magnus racked up a stunning 19 wins and 1 loss!

White 5th Move Alternatives

3.Nc3 d5 4.e5 Ne4! 5.f3, 5.Nf3, 5.h3, and 5.Qf3

White avoids capturing the black Knight on e4.

These rarely played options offer Black excellent counter-play!

White Exchanges on d5

3.Nc3 d5 4.exd5 Nxd5 5.Nxd5

White captures twice on d5, but Black has an improved version

of the Scandinavian Defense which Magnus quite likes.

White Captures Once on d5

3.Nc3 d5 4.exd5 Nxd5 5.Nf3

3.Nc3 d5 4.exd5 Nxd5 5.Bc4

Black has rapid development and active piece play.

White’s e4 Gambit

1.e4 g6 2.d4 Nf6 3.???

White sacrifices the e4 pawn, but does gain some time.

Bd3 v Pirc Defense

1.e4 g6 2.d4 Nf6 3.Bd3

A solid approach that gives Black a comfortable game
