Which opening do you use al the time?

I tend to try different things but don't have names for them. It's probably not such a great idea to get bogged down with theory when you're still learning basic tactics and trying to avoid blunders.

If your playing with tight time controls such as our over the board standard chess league where you only have 1.hour and 10 minutes for first 30 moves and if you get there it's a 10 min sudden death till flag drops you need an opening that is solid and needs very little thinking so I use The Reti 1.Nf3, followed by b3,Bb2 and follow up with d3,c4,Nd2,e3 I find I can play the first 20 moves without any thought or loss of time and get a decent middle game to boot!👍

What do you think about London system?

Avatar of IsaacPollito

Do you think theres an opening better that that?

Avatar of IsaacPollito

Same for KID

Avatar of Salopian57

London system remains solid choice opening but it's does not offer much in a way of an advantage, it's fairly easy to play against for black, 10 years ago it had some surprise value but not anymore!?

Any variation starting from e4 as white,
Caro Kann for Black.
Works very well for beginners (no complication and straight to moves)
