create a list of the 20 responses with logic

then maybe tomr when i come back (time zones exist) i will do my intended stuff with the list...

no chance I’m gonna rank every 20 responses, maybe just 5

1. Caro-Kann

easily the best no question

2. d6

best opening sub-800

3. d5

inferior but playable, can get aggressive at times which is cool

4. e5

kinda bad but you can get some decent positions

5. g6

the Pirc but from wish

pleewo

Is e5 really kinda bad? I actually think Gotham recommends it in his Black Gambits course.

Much inferior to the Caro-Kann

So… switch the Caro and Open, entirely remove the Modern and Scandi, put the Pirc at the very bottom, and then put the Sicilian in T-1st and French in T-3rd, and then this list is great! So in other words this list isn’t great.

pleewo

Basically bricks is saying Sicilian sucks and Sampson, Samuel, d4 and I are saying it’s good

pleewo

Scrumptious I would like to play a timed game

Lil’ Gotham Fan #9574 over here has… opinions. Recommended Pirc and Caro over Sicilian, recommends the Vienna bc “immediate f4 gives White a great position with no weaknesses”, don’t think he’s even heard of the French before in his life, and he talks mad smack for a 1 day old account.
