one of my favorites is the four pawns variation of the KID and the Mekinas attack of the Modern Benoni arrives at the same position around move number seven if I remember right.

Honestly not the craziest I’ve seen. Scandinavian, French, Caro-Kann, Nimzowitsch, and the Barmen Alapin Sicilian all kind of aim for the same thing and so can sometimes transpose. They all want a bishop on f5 and pawns on c5, d5, and e6 by move 5. If Black can achieve that, Black is essentially already better.

1.c3 e5 transposing into a queens gambit declined

1.d4 transposing into a traxler?

Wha- I just

WHAT???

I mean, its never ever gonna happen in a game, but the fact you figured that out alone!

(edit: nvm this is actually decently plausible, but very unlikely)

You can also transpose from 1.d4 into the Ruy Lopez with the same gambit.

Ruy lopez, but each side had two of their pawns each fall on the floor, and they are too lazy to pick them up:

Also. HOLY THIS IS NOW MY FAV TRANSPOSITION. How can we even go from d4 to e4 in such a smooth and subtle manner, especially one that actually is plausible?!?

Chess is full of transpositions
Sicilian - Scotch
Petrov - Queen's Gambit Accepted
Sicilian - French
Scotch - Two Knights
etc. etc.

I played a Pirc/Modern defense as Black, and transposed into a Ruy Lopez Breyer Variation... four tempi up!

I recently played a game that chess.com identified as transposing from

Alekhine's->Nimzowitsch->Pirc->Four Knights Scotch

I would like an explanation and exploration of the Petrov to QGA transposition, please. I am studying the QGA at the moment.

fianchetto closed ruy is geller system modern + Bb5

sounds weird but true

maybe not exactly, but positions can become similar
