Arctic Defense : A very rare, yet unsound opening

Hello Everyone!

This blog is dedicated to my dear friend and chess buddy, @lenout.

He recently started playing the Barnes Defence for fun, by the way, Barnes Defence arises after the moves 1.E4 F6. Now, here's the fun part :

My friend soon got bored playing the Barnes Defence and he decided to switch the lines up and one day, he played against an argentinian guy, and after the moves 1.E4 F6, his opponent played the move 2. Nf3 and after my friend's move 2. Nc6, somehow, we found out about a new opening called the Arctic Defense, which is rarely played, but we managed to somehow play it on the board.

If somebody wants to analyze the game, I will leave it down below.

Cheers!
