the app called this opening the reti for me are they tripping
Sort:
Why is chess.com saying this opening is the reti? I’ve clearly done it a ton of time and it usually says alkaline defense thoughts anyone?
It’s clearly the scandanavian then turns into the alikine

Alekhine is 1. e4 Nf6, where white has the chance to play 2. e5 and chase your knight around. This opening is clearly not Alekhine's defense since black doesn't play ...Nf6 until move 8.
The Reti very often starts with 1. Nf3 d5. A line that is more obscure would be 2. e4, and that is what you transposed into on move 2.
