London system

London System is more popular. I intend to learn the Colle first, it has some interesting aspects.

London against 1...nf6 and the colle against 1...d5 this is the best option IMO

Used to use the London but gave up on it, black can play the boring line after ...e6 then ... Bd6 swap off the black Bishops and tough at our level to push for advantage!? The Zugertort/Cole variation is interesting where white plays a coles setup with black Bishop on b2 had few nice wins with this line but only due to my opponents help?!! Lucky me😉

Depends on the Colle, Koltanowski? or the Zukertort?

I'd probably go with the London ... You can play it more as a system than Koltanowski... The Lodon is about the same with the Zukertort. No short cuts with these "systems" to play them effectively.. at any rating you are required to burn the midnight oil in study prep.
