What's the worst opening?
Sort:
What do you believe is the worst opening in chess that's considered theory nevertheless?
There's a lot of answers to this. Obviously fools mate (1.f3 2.g4) is likely the worst, because it hangs mate in the shortest amount of time. If you mean viable openings, either the bongcloud (if you consider it viable) or the grob.
The Barnes opening Hammerschlag variation is also a pretty funny name for a terrible opening (1.f3 Kf2)

Damiano defence is probably the worst opening people realistically play
Grob 1 g4? is the worst opening move. It is the only white opening move that loses by force.
