It is soo annoying In low Elo it’s all you play against I just want to play cool openings like ICBM or the Dutch defence.

As you get better and play better players you won't see it.

It disappears at 800. Learn how to play against it and enjoy the free wins until they stop.

That is kind of the story of the the Elo journey in general. Better play as you play better!

Just gotta learn how to play against it. There's basically 3 or 4 moves you need to remember and it's the same every time, and by that point you are completely winning. There's a reason only beginners play it.

Even if you don't end up in this family fork variation, you fianchetto the Bishop, Castle and you're fine.
