DEBATE: What is best opening?

As White: London, Queens Gamibit, Italian, Scotch, or the Anderssen/Polish. (1.a3, xx 2. b4, xx)

Black: Dutch, Caro, Sicilian(If i feel like it), and the St. George.

currently my repertoire is something like this-

vs. 1. e4 - taimanov sicilian, classical sicilian, four knights sicilian 
vs. 1. d4 - QGA, slav 
all these are fighting lines, white is pressured to play precisely early on or concede equality..., but the lines are also solid if white plays it right

as white I play either 1. e4 or 1. Nc3. There's alot of overlap between them. And in e4 I have a theoretical line plus an offbeat line. So I can choose based on level of prep which to play. 
1. e4 e5 - currently I'm thinking slow italian or vienna game. In the vienna vs Nf6 I'm currently playing g3 or f4, vs. Nc6 I'm playing g3 or Bc4. Mainly f4 if I transposed here from 1. Nc3 Nf6. I generally think g3 is better against e4e5 players. I could also add the four knights spanish at some point but haven't done that yet
1. e4 c5 - vs. d6 the open sicilian, vs. Nc6 the closed sicilian transposition, vs. e6 the westerenin attack or the open sicilian 
1. e4 c6 - accelerated panov or tal variation 
1. e4 e6 - paulsen french or chigorin french 
1. Nc3 d5 - jobava, veresov, or mexican defense
1. Nc3 e5 - napoleon attack or vienna transposition
1. Nc3 c5 - two knights sicilian 
1. Nc3 Nf6 - vienna gambit transposition 
1. Nc3 Nc6 - vienna transposition, probably the Bc4 line
1. Nc3 c6 - jobava 
1. Nc3 e6 - jobava

Really it's just 1. e4 + a jobava. But with this repertoire I could also play 1. d4 with minimal additional effort, though I haven't done that yet. But for example, if after 1... d5 or 1... Nf6 it'll be a jobava / veresov, or some other line I already face like the pirc or paulsen french. But if they play 1... c5 2. e4 cxd4 3. Nf3 is the sicilian morphy gambit, it'll usually transpose w/ the open sicilian. The only notable new lines will be the englund gambit and mikenas defense, both of which are just bad. So it's kind of nice, I should be able to look at the opponents repertoire and choose which move order to use, and it'll all transpose.

the best chess opening is the queen's gambit ofc

For me I play best with the Vienna and second best with the Italian, and as black, probaly the sicilian

Evans carı indian

Caro

I like the Vienna the Italien and spanish but probaly my most Favoriten is the Vienna

white: d4 or Nf3 and a transposition to d4

black against e4: caro kann

black against d4: d5

how tf does the budapest counter the QG?

Caro-Kann is a good choice

The Budapest is this (I believe):

Quesns gambit is this:

no other opening is called the queens gambit other than 1.d4 d5 2.c4

just playing 1.d4 as white then following it up with 2.c4 does not make it a "queens gambit"

I like sicillian for black

I LIKE SCANDINAVIAN

I dont see where you go from here. You just have a worse position (although its not completely lost at club level since its only a pawn, and your opponent is probably confused. Never give up.)

There is no best opening, however there are some great openings that can put you ata tactical advantage.

I'm an elderly guy (80yo) and my brain, while it still functions, is quite slow. I play openings that require less theory and tactical patterns. Even so, they are plenty challenging for me to learn.

White: d4 - the London System. I started chess playing the Italian Game, which I like. Unfortunately, I get destroyed playing e4, as my aged brain can't seem to handle open positions. The Alex Banzea course on Chessable is excellent and enjoyable.

Black versus e4 - the Caro-Kann. Simple and clean variations. And I like the way the pawn structure looks.

Black versus d4 - the Queen's Indian. I know that I should play the Slav, but I just like the way the QID looks on the board. You don't have to win a game to enjoy playiing it.

italian game obviously and kings pawn for black
