I am trying to build my own opening repertoire and am looking on tips for improving it. This is intended to be a repertoire for the beginner level basically.
Scotch Game against 1..e5 ranging from variation to variation
Panov attack against 1..c6
Those are the only two moves that I am actually trying to play a particular opening against at the moment. I will say that I don't like the main line sicilian and I seem to get better positions playing 3.nc3 as opposed to 3.nxd4
I've been experimenting with other defenses to 1.e4 but haven't found a particular opening that I prefer against them as opposed to 1..e5 and 1..c6
I always try something new on some of the not mentioned openings like the french defense and I'm not sure if that is a bad thing or not.
Is this an okay opening plan for a beginner?
Do I really need a set plan for every main opening? Or will a basic understanding of the main lines suffice?
