How do you play with and against e4? I mean I doubt i'd ever play it as my first move seriously but sometimes, idiots like the person I just played were like "let's turn the d4 position into an e4 position" and I screw up 2 moves after this transposition because I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY AGAINST E4. also i can't see basic tactics but that's besides the point(rip me playing good chess for like 2 weeks sad.png). Anyways I heard a rumor that you have to send and annotate a game? yeah i'll do that now

see this is why I ask this question HOW DO YOU PLAY AGAINST/WITH E4 WHAT IS THIS GARBAGE

Openings are hard unless it is center opening.

I’m feeling helpful today so my advice is to play those openings and lose, lose, lose until you get the hang of it and can win back to your original rating.

Instead of Qxd4, why not troll with Nc3? I see you don't know your theory

Ya, I think I actually have a line of this memorized recommended by shankland. It's supposed to be Nc3, then Nxd4, then Qd3 threatening a check.
