Whenever I see 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3,I play Nf6...the Unloved, under-rated, Petrov. Those who play half-open defenses as black, the most over-rated openings, have soft, fat, rubbery faces just asking to be slapped, repeatedly, by a dolphin or sea otter, or just about anyone.

Ahem. Same thing for people who like to play open games. And closed games too.

Only positions that you litteraly cannot determine. On the edge of exploding like a nuclear bomb in WW3, or on the edge of shutting down like covid-19 lockdown.

Ziryab

London, Kings Indian Attack, Exchange variation against French, etc.

None of these offer White reasonable prospects of advantage.

Well Caro-Kann isn't like a really aggressive opening like Sicilian or is like a super good response to e4 like the French, but it's just a normal good opening nothing special

it can be agressive with the Botvinnik-Carls but im not an expert tbh

AhmedAryan: some type of glitch, or the matrix, so I copied, restarted the page and reposted only to see it was now posted twice. Your post must have been uploaded while I was eliminating the superfluous post.

Fried liver is way too overrated.

no it isnt, if black doesnt know the theory, the game is basically over, and black has to play multiple hard to find computer moves in a row to just reach an equal position in the middlegame

Ziryab

Black is better in the Fried Liver, but cannot err. White can err and still continue to make Black’s life difficult. White wins more than 75% of the games.

The Giuoco Piano (but not the Italian) everyone knows how to play it and it’s fairly hard to spring a surprising attack as either side
