Going from my database of titled players playing under classical time controls in the last 5 years it is 1. Na3 scoring 100%.

By comparison 1. e4 scores 53% and 1. d4 scores 55%.

I think the choice is obvious.

Methinks those statistics are worthless. How many games was 1. Na3 played in?

I answered the question did I not? It's not my fault if it's a stupid question.

It was 4 games.

It happens when people use statistics in the same way as a drunk uses a
lamp-post, more for support than illumination!

Not only that but I beat you by answering it before it was asked. By nearly two hours.

Methinks you didn't read the thread.
