I would say consistent and solid play is the best. I prefer to play a low-risk style and try to slowly accumulate small advantages and grind them out to convert for the full point.
I guess it depends what they've already learned. I've played the Muzio gambit in one of my games on here to try it out and see what I can achieve with it. I've never really played gambits before so it's new territory for me. I suspect that's true for most people but there will be some who could do with learning to grind (also true for me, I get impatient).
It may depend on your style. If you like to be aggressive then go ahead with risky moves looking for tactical combinations. If you prefer to hold a solid position, then try to get little strategic advantages. You should test and discover which style makes you feel more comfortable on the board.
I'd say daring.
Which you think will make one improve the most, daring to do wild play, gambits and sacrifices? Or playing to get the best possible result all the time? I know you don't make sacrifices out of the blue like this, but things like the muzio gambit and such?
