Hey,

I have a basic opening repertoire of mainly e4, but I've started trying d4 against lower rated opponents. I also have a set up of I play the caro kann, pirc, and sometimes the ruy lopez. Against d4 I play the slav, semi slav, queens indian, and the grunefeld. Can anyone recommend and other openings, also some of their most popular variations.

Thanks, CalWizz

What style of play are you? I think it's rare for someone to play the caro-kann and grunefeld. I think it's important to know this before selecting any specific opening.

Btw...why do you play d4 only against lower rated opponents?

well I have trouble with attacks, so I'd say more positional. The reason I play d4 against low opp. because higher rated people play d4 more often and I just want to try it out. With my more positional style should i get rid of the caro kann.
