It's called the parham.
What do you think is the most trolliest opening ever
Sort:
I don't even know who plays the parham anymore, before allot of people played it.
I guess but it just wastes time because the queen gets knocked back while white develops and black is playing around with his queen
I would go with the London System
What's the London system? I never heard of it until I saw people kept saying that it is very annoying
I always enjoy playing against the Parham. I get to develop my pieces while my opponent is forced to move his queen around endlessly.

No one will ever let the parham go through, it's easy to counter and a waste of at least three moves or more. I don't see the point lol. You will loose your queen earlier also.
That's the London system?
Parham ends up in a drawn position if black plays correctly, and ends up in a win for white if he does anything else.
So you are saying you like the parham?
Advance Rook
Isn't that when you bring your queenside rook out early in the game?
To whoever asked what the London System is :
White plays 1.d4, 2.Nf3 and 3.Bf4, usually something like 1.d4 Nf6 2.Nf3 d5 3.Bf4. It is also known as the "Boring System", and for good reason. Basically White wants to restrict all forms of Black's counterplay. Objectively, Black shouldn't be worse, but in a practical setting, it's quite hard and annoying to play against.
Ah ok I see. But is it a widely used opening? Or more of a fun opening. I play the parham just for fun sometimes whenever I play my friends.
It's reasonably popular at club level, because of the practical results thing, but not at GM level, because of the objective evaluation thing.
No doubt it is the Hippo Attack. I've never seen such a ridiculous opening!
Hippo attack? I am looking that up lol
