2026 February Opening of the Month Community Vote

Hello everyone!

Hope you're enjoying the Indian Game (:
It is time for us all to pick the February opening, to be featured both in the Rapid Opening Roulette and our Official Thematic Daily Chess Tournaments set to start late next month.

Here's how we structured the present Opening of the Month choices:

• Runner up from previous OOTM poll
• Top suggested from previous OOTM poll comments (one opening per member)
• Random (not yet featured) pick from most popular openings
• 2nd most played opening in recent events (FIDE World Rapid: Open+Women)

As always, feel free to share your feedback and ideas in the survey comments in addition to suggesting an opening you'd like to support for the next month voting. These are hugely appreciated.

Hit the button below and cast your vote for the opening you'd love to play!

Submissions close next Tuesday so be sure to submit your vote and comment your suggestions by then, and happy chessing!
