Alekhine's Defence [edit]
White still has a space advantage, but Black is intending to attack the c- and d-pawns with moves like ...Nc6 and ...Bg7. Meanwhile, White has not yet moved any pieces and needs to develop. Most modern masters prefer to wait with Nf3, since such a knight can quickly become a target to ...Bg4, so the most common move is 6.Nc3.
