Pretend that you have never heard of the words "Queen's Gambit Declined" or "Slav Defense" and approach the opening phase of the game as described above . . .
Ok, that makes sense.
approach the opening phase of the game as described above until you are at least 1600 and preferably 1800.
Go ahead and find me an 1800 player who hasn't heard of the queen's gambit, or a 1600 who doesn't know a few moves of the mainlines of the openings they regularly play.
play 2...e6 and then just act spontaneously
