I'm just curious as to why people play different moves. When you have the black pieces, what's your favorite response to 1. e4 and why? Personally I love the French Defense (1... e6) because it opens up the Queen and dark-square Bishop but also allows me to push d5 and normally c5 even.

As a beginner, I normally just go e5 and then play Nc6, and Bc5

E5, because if they make a single mistake in their development sequence, I'm popping Qh4 and doing this to them;

or this

This is so disgusting I hesitate to show it.
