I also play d5 instead of the KID

I think they do

naah, against the english i just like to play Nf6 first, its more flexible as i can fianchetto(KID), but i mostly go up against catalan english, so i play nf6 c6 against it, its kinda like an overprotected scandi

It's simple, if you have a repertoir of opening that aren't very popuar at GM level state them:

Which are the popular openings at higher level?

 

  • Sicilian
  • Ruy Lopez
  • Queen's Gambit
  • QID, NID, KID, Grunfeld

I play the french instead of Sicilian

I play the Italian (with Evans Gambit or knight attack to follow, very uncommon at GM level yet crushing!)

I play QG sometime but rarely

I do play KID I must admit

I play the Scotch Four Knights as white, and when I'm black, i play the good ol' e5 against e4, and the Classical Dutch against d4 (and c4,Nf3).

If Black plays Qe4+ followed by Bb8, they escape the trap and the position is even.
