Why does stockfish hate this opening?


Every time I play this opening I came up with when I first started playing, the engine thinks I’m horrible.

It probably will work well in blitz and rapid tho, cuz ur opponent wont have much time to think and playing a wrong move against that opening will be an instant loss
I think Stockfish hates this opening because it's kinda unorthodox
Stockfish likes orthodox openings

All stockfish does is calculate lines based on the best possible moves, doesn't matter if you play orthodox or unorthodox moves. I probably doesn't like it because of ur opponent plays the best possible moves, you will be at a disadvantage. It doesn't take into account how good an opening is against a certain skill level, or a lack of time

this scandinavian like way of playing the center game with best play gives a small advantage to black. It is however full of tricks, esp involving early e4-e5 after castling queenside.
