Italian gamebit and scolor gamebit is best
Which Is The BEST!!
Sort:
I like the Queen’s Gambit for white.
For white, Open Sicilian, especially against the Najdorf. Bg5 is very aggressive and my personal favourite.
Bc4 is my second choice. It's probably more aggressive but a bit dubious.
Also the Ruy Lopez against the king's pawn.
For black, the Najdorf and King's Indian.

That’s good, I play, and I think and many GM’s are with me that it’s the best, the Alipan

Ah ok, I don't like the Alapin. It's very passive and black equalises easily against it. I know Naroditsky promotes this line for beginners as sometimes players don't know what to do against Alapin, but it's very dry and equal if black actually knows a line against it.
You didn't include the d5 line. I prefer this line as it makes the game a bit more fun.
Open Sicilian is way more exciting and aggressive and also it's just better than the Alapin. It's the main line for a good reason.

Well, I’m a 1700-1800 and if I get the Sicilian I play the Alapin and win most of my games and I get the main line most of the time so.. and playing the open is also lame cause it’s slow but IDK, a 1700 opinion against a 600 opinion.. there really isn’t anything to play against Sicilian that’s offensive unless it’s a gambit and if not a gambit your opponent is messing up.. just saying

"Open is also lame cause it's slow" You don't know that much about the Open Sicilian because you're an Alapin player so you never tried to learn anything about it.
Good for you that you've had success with the Alapin and played well. I was just saying my favourite and one of the best openings because you asked.
It's far more aggressive than the Alapin as it develops pieces more quickly instead of making pawn moves. It also allows for long castling as the queenside pawns are intact.
c3 deprives the knight of its best square on c3 so white can't develop as naturally. It also weakens the queenside. Even though white aims to establish 2 pawns in the centre by supporting d4 with c3, black can normally force an IQP position which will be a structural weakness for white.

Also don't be a dk man. Trying to belittle others opinions based on rating is just so lame. Pretty much all GMs will disagree with you.
I'm way above 600 anyway.

Ok.. I know, I’m just saying, a 1700 know a bit more then a “600”, your rapid is 600 and you play that a lot but that doesn’t matter, to agree to disagree

No, being a higher rating doesn't mean you know more. It means you have played more and have more experience.
My rapid is 774, my daily is 1372. I sometimes struggle with time pressure.
It isn't the same because if someone hasn't tried to learn or play an opening which someone else has, then they wouldn't know as much about it as that person. Some difference in rating doesn't change that.
For white I like the Italian and the London, but I would like to learn the King’s gambit, and for black against d4 I play the Englund gambit and against e4 I do the Blackburne-Kloosterboer gambit and 1… e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bf4 Nf6 equally.

🤣 Classic Gothamchess repertoire. "My main weapon against d4 is the Englund Gambit. Gothamchess said this is a good opening because I can mate in 8 moves!"
Must be a strong opening.
