but Hikaru, in the tier list for beginners with Levy you put the italian very high
as intermediate player (2000 lichess elo) that was a beginner 2 years ago: play Skandinavian vs 1.e4 and Englund Gambit vs 1.d4 as a beginner, these are very forcing, getting you tactical positions so you see ur daily puzzle solving pay off. as white play the London system, very easy repertoire.
Damn Im first
Let's be honest, we low-rated players play the Italian because of potential Fried Liver Attack π
Third?
I just watched this after playing an Italian… π’
I like the English Opening
No italian? Alright, i'll just play the catalan π
do like me, play the italian but then the evans gambit, and you will have tons of fun
So Bongcloud is better, noted
I switched to e5 as black recently and even at the 1700-1800 level, probably 80%+ of what I face is the Italian
Play like me and make your opponent think that they are playing a 2 year old
1200 will play the most heavy sophisticated theory to lose to simple pin or skewer later
I've gained 200 points since I dropped the Italian a few months a ago so I fully agree with this
I play centre game as white and Scandinavian miehses kotrc variation as black 900 rapid
Iβve been playing the bishops opening as a 1200 rated, I win 60% of my games, but I donβt understand what I am doing
I would say scotch is good to start with
Opponent makes a move and it takes hikaru 20 seconds to make a move.
Opponent: i got him thinking now
Hikaru: explaining why beginners should not play the opening he is
Hikaru op π guys watch my channel
The thumbnail looks like Hikaru trying to make a Sigma Face.
So whatβs the best opening for beginners as white?
Just play the Vienna since it's banned in FIDE because it's too OP
Title of the video:Best openings for beginners
HIKARU: ITALIAN IS THE WORST…
agree! i couldnt gain elo with the Italian as a beginner/intermediate player. found way more success with the Vienna.
So, instead of giving us the best opening for beginners. You give us the worst. I like that attitude.
Italian game very boring opening in chess
Thank you, Hikaru. I have stopped playing the Italian, and have since taken up the Spanish. Hopefully my games will be much more straightforward!
I actually agree. If you don't know when to open (the file) it can get really complicated or really simple with equal trades which leads straight to a boring endgame
