Hypermodern theory, the slow (cowardly), conservative (unoriginal), cautious (indirect), and tricky (fillintheblank) systematic undermining of the opponent's openings and plans via solid (conservative) pawn structures and long range (indirect) influence has finally been put to rest! With the clever use of only one piece!
Remember, chess is mental war! Win their mind and you've won the game!!
WellRounded
Pretty much the exact same thing has been done.... on here... not too long ago no less. But I chuckled.
Masterful_Forfeit
Hey that's my first time seeing it, and I laughed incredibly hard. Thank you for this!
"And white is clearly winning due to black's lack of a plan to undermine"
Swakefield
yeah i enjoyed that as well :P
Assassin2142
Black would easly win this game. I could beat someone easy if they just did that
But how, it's obvious white has the advantage.
For any new players, this is sarcasm. I am making fun of assassin2142 inability to recognize humor. This would silly of white to do, please, do not try it...
RainbowRising
You are an idiot. Not only is your point incredibley stupid, but you tried to be funny by saying 'using only one piece', and you used both knights.
EVANSTEINW21
It has a weakness!!!!!!!
uritbon
black can always try destroying himself if white doesn't have anything good to undermine.
heavyop
I think White has the advantage because he hasn't weakened his position with useless pawn moves like Black has
haha, I had no idea people still read these ^^
You're awfully pretty for a chess player, are you sure you're real? =P
Skwerly
lmao good stuff here. :)
NinjaBear
*likes*
But hypermodern openings still lead to interesting games...
freesta
black would see your plan and undermine your anti-undermining.
I should post puzzles and stuff ^^ brb
Sigmoid_Flexure
Can we call this the crocodile opening? The 'possum?
haha, sure :P
it's kinda lame but I posted a puzzle anyways. I realized once I started the topic that I had no tactical problems in mind at all so I stole a game I recently finished <.<

I once saw two players play a game with this opening, white won (even though black was the more respected player):
