An opening that always intrigued me has been the Dutch Defense. It creates an imbalanced attacking game where black is fighting to win instead of working to neutralize Whites first move advantage. Currently I play the King's Indian and looking at some of the Leningrad variation they seem similar. The main line for the Leningrad can be found below:
At this point the game is very imbalanced and both sides will need to watch for various tactics. It seems like the kind of opening I would love to play. I have had issues with so many people playing Anti King's Indian variations that I sometimes consider learning this and playing it.
Chessgames.com has a section dedicated to the Leningrad Dutch
