king's pawn opening is so overrated

I think e4 definitely feels a little more raw and aggressive. It's decent, but it definitely makes people forget d4, which feels more refined. I guess I'd say e4 isn't bad, but it makes d4 underrated.

yes d4 is actually good at attacking

yes, but you can play c5 and you might have a great game with Sizilian Defense ...

Not my type of opening

My type is attacking but being safe and not losing material

Queen's pawn opening chirogin variation does both

Should you really be referring to yourself as an "attacking" player when you're losing in 6 moves by missing a simple tactic?

did you realize that I am much better at attacking than defending
