Yes we should remove birds from our repertoire because it’s nonsense. But in no way f3 Grunfeld is nonsense. Just like the saemisch nimzo, its logical in the sense that it supports e4.1…f5 vs e4 is actual nonsense and no sane person except hikaru in blitz has it in their repertoire. Kings gambit makes some sense, it’s not nonsense. Vienna gambit makes sense. The Schliemann makes sense and the Rousseau makes no sense fr fr
"Vienna gambit makes sense. The Schliemann makes sense and the Rousseau makes no sense fr fr" So if white moves the Bishop one square further, the opening is genius, but if it goes to c4, it's outlandish and unsound at any level? I play the Vienna and Rousseau and on occasion the Jaenisch/Schliemann. They all play fine and none of them are nonsense.
"This is a great line that everyone should try!"
"bro misclicked 💀"
oh wait it's the exact same situation you described 🤔
Wait srry I'm a bit confused by this. Could I get some context
The Schliemann
The Rosseau
The difference is one bishop move. “Just because the bishop went to c4 means that the opening is unsound at every level?”
The Morphy (good)
Misclick (bad)
I don’t really know how to explain it any further
Sorry. I'm mostly confused about what the Misclick means. Do you mean that you can't play the same lines against different moves? If so, yeah that's true but the Jaenisch and Rousseau are different openings.
I was joking
Ah I see
choose more sound gambits, not all out crazy gambits that are losing by force
ill give a list of sound, good gambits
d4 gambits
prob forgot some but there are some valid gambits for white that arent refutable
