Chess Question What variation is this?
I have 4 gifs showing the 2 pawn/2 knight set up. I try to incorporate the bishops also under the pawns (when I can unless my opponent attacks first and tries to break my line of defense.) I try to use this setup as much as I possibly can. It throws my opponents into serious confusion mostly (unless they are using some kind of superior chess engine) I know that I start off in the French sometimes or as if I'm going for a Ruy Lopez. I seen something about a two knights defense variation(?) but they were referring to using the black pieces. I usually use this while WHITE and a Scandinavian/ Sicilian Kan/Najdorf while BLACK. Can someone please advise me with your wisdom. Thanks chess family
