What is the most common move 1 by Black in all openings combined?

If the answer is Nf6, should be called "copying" or making a good move?

Think it's probably c5.

Most common against e4

Pretty common against d4

Very common against c4 and Nf3

Close...

I thought we meant 4 major openings -_-

Yeah move 1 for black but if we count only e4 d4 c4 Nf3 which are the most played would it be c5 or not?
