What is the hardest opening for average players?

There’s MORE theory in the Queen’s Gambit than in the Indian. I wouldn’t recommend trash talking someone both way smarter and way more skilled than you, especially if you have no clue what you’re talking about.

WHO THE HELL SAID IM TALKING ABOUT THE INDIAN HAVING MORE THEORY THAN THE QUEENS GAMBIT?
bro whats wrong with russians
but honestly openings like the grunfeld or najdorf are likely the answer (openings with heavy amounts of theory and variations)

Not really, most Americans I talk to (in real life, not over the internet) seem to be sympathetic to both Russians and Ukrainians, as both sides are suffering heavy losses.

Nah doubt it
The Semi-Slav alone may have more theory than every single Indian (minus the KID) combined, and the QGD proper has an insane amount of theoretical variations, the Slav has a very large theory book, and then there’s also the various QGDs, the Tarrasch, the QGA, the Albin, the Grunfeld transposition via the Marshall, like there’s a LOT of theory to the QG.
Meanwhile with the Indian games, there’s the KID which has a theory load to rival the QGD proper, but aside from that most of the Indians have many variations, but the theory ends at like move 6 or 7.
honestly najdorf + grunfeld theory is the reason why many people dont play them... there is so goddam much

Bro did you just say that more book moves = more theory?

Ben Oni has a lot of theory and has super long lines
Gruenfeld has super long lines
Budapest/Farajowic has a good amount too
Budapest really doesn’t have much theory at all. I’ve checked. Benoni and Grunfeld both have a few somewhat longish lines, but both are nothing compared to the KID.

Bro did you just say that more book moves = more theory?
First of all, I thought you blocked me (LMFAO) because I’m Russian in your mind, so why’re you still responding to me?
Secondly, no. I didn’t say that. Book moves for Semi-Slav usually end around move… 11-15 IIRC? But the theory in, for example, the Botvinnik Semi-Slav actually runs all the way into the endgame into a forced theoretical draw, the Meran has like 6 or 7 variations which all have theory lasting deep past move 25, et cetera.
