I like indian king gambit, the variatons is so good, because it's aggresive and it controls the center.

well I see you are a 100, so basically anything works, when I'm a 300 I used ponziani and Scandinavian , which are solid if you know how to play but these for your rated player are not really recommended. so I think the wayward queen attack is very good for you or you can try to scholar mate. when you have higher elo, you should consider, caro kann, sicilian, fried liver, vienia gambit and scandivanian.

Queen's Pawn isn't a bad choice, nor is the Italian Game opening. Developing your pawns, knights, and bishops in early game can help you take the middle much more dominantly.

Does that even exist? I never heard of such an opening.

He is talking about King's gambit. It is not considered good. It is well known by now how black should defend (and attack, King's gambit has always been a double-edged sword). Nevertheless, at beginner/intermediate level, you can still play it since most people at that range does not know what to do against it (since they don't face it often).
