I've been playing bad opening moves today and I'm going to put these into a regular rotation. Here's why: these will give my opponents opening advantages, which will force me to become more resourceful in order to keep up. My second move is to push the rook up and offer the exchange, which will force me to play more active/dynamic to keep the middle game going. My knight will be out of place as well, forcing me to be more patient in order to coordinate my pieces. Furthermore Susan, the unconventional positions will allow me to think more tactically, which will strengthen my game in general, as well as put me into positions relevant to the majority of the training I do - tactics puzzles. Also, the best player in the world does it and it seems wise to implement some of the things excellent players do.
