Well, 1.e4 and 1.d4 are two very different ways to open.
Generally 1.e4 involves more tactical concepts.
Generally 1.d4 involves more positional concepts.
I think your change of heart in openings is a little premature. You need to play more games with 1.d4 to get a feel for the opening an the variations. What variations were you playing with 1.e4?
Hi all, I'm considering a change to 1.d4 and need to find out the key details behind it.
I'm rated around 1400 online, and have been a 1.e4 player all of my short 14 years. I played 1.d4 for fun against a lower rated player, beat him badly, and in the King's Indian tournament, I've got a 3/4 so far and winning position in just about every one of the other games.
Is there anything special I need to know? Openings to try and avoid, maybe openings to play?
Thanks for your help and time.
