Hurt/Heal 1.e4 Openings

By jrcolonial98

 

Please hold off from all votes because the game is now over!


We have a winner! The favorite 1.e4 opening is the Ruy Lopez.


If you "hurt" one, it loses two points. If you heal one, it gains one point. (Though obvious, you "hurt" what you dislike and you "heal" what you like.)

Each opening starts with 5 points. If an opening goes down to 0 points, it gets eliminated.

 

ELIMINATED:

20th place, 4 knights game

19th place, Damiano Defense

18th place, 3 knights Game

17th place, Scandinavian Defense

16th place, King's Gambit

15th place, Pirc Defense

14th place, Center Game

13th place, the Italian Game

12th place, the Latvian Gambit

11th place, the Danish Gambit

10th place, the 2 Knights Defense

9th place, Alekhine's Defense

8th place, the Vienna Game

7th place, the Giuoco Piano

6th place, the Petrov's Defense

5th place, the Caro Kann

4th place, the French Defense

3rd place, the Scotch Game

2nd place, the Sicilian Defense

1st place, the Ruy Lopez
