it doesn't matter what kramnik does, he will win.

his normal style can be described as 'anti computer' already.

1.nf3 then passively mess around.

only with black he has a small problem. in fact all his openings suck
compared to other world top players.

But he is 4000 rated in strategy + technique. So just get a position
on the board and he'll win from anything.
