Win in chess in just 4 moves
I don‘t like the idea of checkmating the opponent in the opening. It’s the same thing again and again - You don‘t have fun and you don‘t get better. Why do you play Chess at all? You know what i mean?
...And that's why your Elo is 600, OP.
Chill. You were 600 as well. So was I, but I got better. Scholars mate isn’t a bad opening for beginners
In hindsight, I definitely could have been a lot less of a jerk about that. My apologies.
But my point still stands, as unnecessarily blunt as it was. You will not get very far if you play easily refuted opening traps. If you try the Scholar's Mate on anyone rated higher than 900, they will humiliate you.
If you're really curious about opening traps, though, there are a few that can be easily set up, aren't immediately obvious, often work at low levels of play, and don't immediately leave you in a clearly worse position if they fail. For example, the Elephant Trap in the Queen's Gambit Declined can trick a lot of people, as it comes about from natural moves, the move (blunder) that springs the trap is also quite natural, and the correct response can be quite unintuitive.
Still, you ought to stick to normal chess instead of cheap traps if you want to move on up in the world. Not only will you feel like you really won when you get the dub, but you'll also have a game that you can review and actually learn from instead of basically re-watching the same movie over and over again (with the occasional blooper). Eventually, you'll be the one shutting down those traps with great precision and thinking to yourself, "Not today, pal!" and climbing your way up, while everyone else who didn't get the memo gets left in the dust.

i think, objectively, instead of trying scholar mate, which is like a cheap trick... people should focus on learning opening principles, middlegame tactics and endgame patterns so that they can have fun while 'playing the game' instead of like trying to mate your opponent with cheap trick openings...
