What are some suggestions for a newer trap opening. I’m trying to improve tactically so anything helps, thanks!

Don’t go for traps. Hope chess is terrible and will get you into lost positions. It’s like playing the Scholar’s Mate but being slightly more discreet. Instead, play more tactical openings.

The most tactical openings are by far the King’s Gambit, the Dragon Sicilian, and probably either the Benko or the Benoni. However, I recommend the Ruy Lopez, the Najdorf Sicilian, and the King’s Indian. Great openings and are also very tactical.

Play this lol

This is actually one of the best openings ever because you checkmate them in 7 moves. Only 2nd to the Scholar's Mate which is the best opening because it's the quickest checkmate.

Chess is so easy.

Actually I forgot about Fool's Mate, that's actually the best opening.

Opponent couldn't do anything.

im honestly in search for gambit lines for black that arent all out dubious and can offer good piece activity

Sadly, there are none. The closest one can get to a good gambit line for black is the Marshall, and that goes deep into a (sadly) rare variation.

Marshall Gambit if you played 1.e5 as black in the Ruy Lopez

The problem is that nobody plays the Ruy Lopez anymore- GothamChess. He says the Ruy Lopez is completely impractical and says that if you have the chance to play the Ruy, you shouldn’t. Most amateurs believe this flawed logic, leading few players left playing the Ruy.

Avatar of Sea_TurtIe

they play e3 in the benoni or nf3/nc3

if i do get the benko they usually collapse (they play b3 in response to the benko lmao)

Really? Wow, that’s some terrible luck. 1800’s are playing 2. Nc3 against the Indian Game?! Or are they playing the Trompowsky because GothamChess doesn’t shut up about it?

If gothamchess is right about one thing, it's the trompowsky

it’s fine but 2. c4 is just so much better it’s not even debatable

Avatar of Sea_TurtIe

you know the tromp gives equality/ better for black

2.c4 does not
