Scandinavian defense is strong

I find this very funny. After watching 2 or 3 tutorials on the Scandinavian defense, and taking the free part of the Chessly course, and playing 130 games as black with Scandi, my winrate (in rated games!) is 32%.

That opening is strong as hell. For white.

It sounds like you've had quite the experience with the Scandinavian Defense! While the Scandi can be potent when wielded with precision, it's crucial to ensure your understanding of typical pawn structures, attacks, and counterattacks. Improving your middlegame strategies and becoming adept at transitions https://22aud-casino.com/ can be vital for increasing that win rate. Consider revisiting those tutorials to refine your play, or even trying practice matches with stronger opponents who can highlight weaknesses. Recognizing patterns in past games can pave the way to future victories. Keep at it, and your efforts are bound to pay off!

I don't dislike the scandi, it's just difficult to get right for black if you don't know a good deal of the lines. There's also a couple traps white could implement, and unless black plays perfect, could fall into easily.
