Good black openings for beginners
Sort:
Hey fellas. I’m a beginner who’s trying to expand my opening repertoire, but most of the ones I see suggested are for white. Any suggestions for black?

Queen’s Gambit Declined for all the d4, c4, nf3, etc.
Against e4, it depends more on your preferences. If you want easy to play, try the Scandinavian. French for closed positions, e5 for open positions, c5 if you want a fighting, sharp defense. Caro-Kann if you want a solid, defensive game.
For a beginner it is recommended to defend 1 e4 e5 and 1 d4 d5 as black and to open 1 e4 as white.
