Hm, nice line, I might try using that - the problem I have is that a lot of white players play stuff like 2.Nc3 and just devlop randomly. Not that white's going to gain a huge advantage in those lines, but it's not like I can just win with no effort either.
usually a d4 player who does 2. Nc3 has no clue wth he is doing, and thus, planless. In other words, 0-1.

I find those players are sometimes very strong tactically - i.e. they have no clue how to play the opening, but they know tactics very well, because they replaced opening study with tactical study.

you should be crushing them going into the middlegame so just tread carefully on the path to victory (wait...tactical + 1. d4 2. Nc3 = paradoxical)
