Attack with Scotch Game Chessmood
Why play the Scotch Game after 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6?
Openings like the Ruy Lopez(3.Bb5) and the Italian(3.Bc4) have lots of theory and many subtleties in them.
Other openings, like the Four Knights (3.Nc3), don’t offer enough chances to fight for an advantage.
The Scotch has relatively less theory than the Ruy Lopez or the Italian, and at the same time, it offers White good chances to fight for an opening advantage.
Another bonus point is that White’s aggressive approach from the get-go can net them many points in the opening itself, as you’ll see in this repertoire…
To help you understand how fundamentally sound the Scotch is, consider that it was one of Garry Kasparov’s pet lines that he successfully used in a World Championship Match against Anatoly Karpov.
Today, elite GMs like Ian Nepomniatchichi continue to use it even at the highest level.
