simagin had a bold and imaginative playing style, and he was an expert tactician. his style has been compared to both richard réti and bent larsen. he was a profound originator in the openings. examples of his contributions include the accelerated dragon variation in the sicilian defence, the grünfeld defence, the simagin variation of the nimzo-indian defence (1.d4 nf6 2.c4 e6 3.nc3 bb4 4.e3 0-0 5.nge2 d5 6.a3 bd6), and simagin's defence (1.e4 d6 2.d4 c6 3.nf3 bg4). in the king's indian defence, the variation 1.d4 nf6 2.c4 g6.3.g3 bg7 4.bg2 o-o 5.nf3 d6 6.nc3 nc6 7.o-o bg4 is known as the simagin variation. simagin also experimented in the position after white's seventh move with 7...bf5, which is known as the lesser simagin, while the rarer 7...bd7 is known as the least simagin. while these variants of the fianchetto variation of the kid can lead to unique, independent positions, more often they transpose to positions similar to the more popular and flexible panno variation (7...a6), named after oscar panno.
