I apologize for not getting my rating up while there's covid. But in my last three otb tournaments I've gone from 1373-1680.
Fair enough, but comparing online ratings doesn't make much sense either. Not all people play actively here. I most certainly don't.

That's fair. To be honest ratings are really volatile these days because there are very little otb tournaments, while some people play lots of chess and others don't play at all online.

Of course you don't, because you're terrible and would be found out immediately.
Mr.Spaghetti, you are probably the most toxic person on chess.com. You seem to always have this urge to insult people, for whatever reason. Focus more on your chess, and one day you might become a better player. Have a nice day, and take a chill pill.

I’ve played this opening a ton. There were a number of years where it was my go-to response to 1.e4.
It can be quite effective, as others have mentioned, in terms of being more prepared than white. It can also be disastrous, as others have also mentioned, if you’re careless.
You’d be amazed how often you can win a quick pawn in a bullet game after
1.e4, Nf6 2. Nf3
...happens all the time

Yes, I love it but you have to be careful. Easy to get caught in an unbalanced position.
