A complete and thought-out repertoire
I found this e4 course as a 1000 rated player wanting to learn some "real" openings. In general like the simplicity of the course. The amount of lines is limited enought that you can still learn and digest it in a reasonable amount of time. Very nice is that Matt and Jessy are trying to guide different lines in a familiar position so you can remember these more easily. I think the resulting positions are very solid. I'm now rated 1300 and are going to continue my chess jorney with a course for black.

1 E4
Great Course, not a typical kind E4 course that I often see, these looks real fun and dynamic, D4 players can learn too.
Marcel
Solid Repertoire with great attacking opportunities
I really love ChessGoals 1. e4 Repertoire for White. Matt and Jesse are a great duo as tutors, because they combine the knowledge of a master with the perspective of an adult-improver, who often brings up exactly those kinds of questions I myself would ask. The moves themselves give great attacking chances without being too risky or outlandish. I especially like the Scotch Game lines with opposite castling that often result in great kingside pawn storms. I also appreciate, very much, that the promise to leave us with a plan at the end of each line is consistently fulfilled, and you are never left wondering what you might do afterwards.

Easy to undersand and follow
I stumbled on e4 course while looking for reply to French defense. What struck me was that every move was explained in terms of ideas, in language which is easy to understand at my chess rating level. I enjoyed it so much that I started to incorporate other lines from the course in my repertoire and I am now planning to switch to Dynamic Slav just for the benefit of clear explanations, ideas and consistency.

Concise & clear to a point. Maybe defined to rating level would be a possible enhancement.
Course content is fine. Main 1.e4 White opening given is Scotch opening & yet more of a sideline variation (Potter) than main Scotch (Classical) chosen. Personally I have a slight dislike of this approach & would prefer more emphasis on main line openings. Overall, a good course, thank you.

Great course
The course is great. I was looking for a new opening to play as playing the Italian had gotten boring to me. Playing through this course helped me get back into chess. It's a relatively aggressive which I liked and is not to complicated to remember. They do a great job of simplifying the system, explaining the concepts of why each line goes the way it does. Highly recommended.

Nice course
Been playing d4 for last 6 years, this course helps me switching to e4 (more like playing both depending on mood), even for a 1950 FIDE it's good material. The scotch is something I really like. Simple, yet powerful.
