um no one plays that stupid move like only patzers can manage to play that you can play d4 thats good but i'd rather play c3 and they are patzers so they will take everything they can so play c3 if they play nf6 you can play bd3 like them coz that dont have d5 rn they will castle and you can castle too good players are gonna play re8 and bed ones can play i guess nc6 but white's idea will be bc2 d4 it will be good for white and it will transpose into a line of italian but it will be dubious for black well i could be completely wrong coz i did not even see a board during these moves but yeah practically they seem good to me

Since no one else was answering the question. If you bring up the Analysis Board and put these moves in, there is a little book icon under the move list. It's probably active already, but if not then you can click on it. What it shows is recorded games played with this move order. There are no Masters games with these moves but if you click on 'Lichess database' it will show you games on Lichess with various moves that have been played in response, and their win rates. You can adjust the ratings that it checks too. This is frequently better than running the engine to some high depth for openings, because these are human moves.

Hi Pierre, I made a quick study here:



Let me know if you have any questions!

@WilTiger. Thank you again. Was off-line. You put a lot of effort into this study. I will review it carefully!
