Scotch
Watching grandmaster commentary seems to do nothing for my play, analyzing games helps me more. But I'm still pretty terrible.
The scotch is the only opening where I understand every move. I don't get why the ruy Lopez doesn't just lose a tempo when black pushes a pawn, and it also makes it hard to develop you other bishop just like the Italian. I know it's considered inferior but I am still drawn to the scotch
Sicilian Defense, Canal variation

What the heck is ROL?
ROFL - Rolling on the Floor Laughing
ROFLMAO - Rolling on the Floor Laughing My A$$ Off
LOL - Laugh Out Loud
Then there are others not pertaining to laughing, like:
BRB - Be Right Back
L8R - Later
CUL8R - See You Later
Etc.
There is no ROL in the "common acronym" social media dictionary
Hmmm...let's see, what could ROL be?
Rich Old Ladies?
Rancid Old Lettuce?
Republicans Obstruct Legislature?
no he means "antiRar Out Loud"
I was wondering what people think the best openings are. So I’m going to have people give me 5 or less choices, labeled from favorite to least favorite to so I can give a certain amount of points for what level you put it at. I’ll come back here regularly to edit what my data says. I’ll go first- King’s Indian defense, Pirc defense, Italian Game, King’s Indian Attack, Queen’s Indian defense. These listed are not the only options, I will add more as we go.
