Which is better: e4 or d4?

Hi

Thank you for adding to the conversation.

Absolutely d4

It's just amazing heheh

I never get draws on e4 most is when I blay d4

To blay!

mostly win

E4 is the best move d4 2 best move e4 is better

As an e4 player I dislike the positions arising from 1d4 from the white side. If only 1d4 existed and hypothetically you were not allowed to play 1e4 I would not be playing chess at all. Having said that 1d4 is definitely the better move as white has a risk free game with only one exception - when facing the Dutch defence.

Honestly, it's really just whatever brings the most openings you like. Bobby may have said "With 1.e4! I win," but they're the same for all practical matters but one- e4 is sharp, d4 is quiet, generally.

Both e4 and d4 are bad; the only winning move is not to play

The same happens in love or friendship

everything runs on opportunistic interests.

There is nothing pure in this world , not even in chess, so the best thing is not to play.

I can proudly say that I have never lost a single game against Magnus Carlsen.

I have stood by his side and shaken his hand, but I would never think of playing a game against the Norwegian because I already know the result in the long run

Ha yeah keep telling yourself that
