Play Black's moves of the line from memory — 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 g6 3. d4 Bg7 4. Nc3 Qa5 — and the trainer plays White's replies; "Play the other side" turns it around.

"Drill all" adds the 3 named lines that continue it, such as Pterodactyl Defense: Sicilian, Anhanguera, Pterodactyl Defense: Sicilian, Unpin, Pterodactyl Defense: Sicilian, Benoni Gambit.

Read about the line, its statistics on Lichess and Stockfish's evaluation on the Modern Defense: Pterodactyl Variation page, or pick another opening in the opening trainer.
