Sicilian Dragon

From Conservapedia

The Sicilian Dragon is considered the strongest defense in chess by Black against a standard 1.e4 opening by White:

1.e4 c5
2. Nf3 d6
3. d4 cxd4
4. Nxd4 Nf6
5. Nc3 g6
6. Be3 Bg7
7. Qd2 O-O[1]

The Sicilian Dragon defense is a variation of the Sicilian Defense.

The defining move for the Sicilian Dragon is for Black to advance its pawn to g6, thereby enabling a fianchetto by its kingside bishop.
