if you play losing chess, you are a genius, but if you are not then I say nothing.
How to not play chess, Why you don't fianchetto your knights ? You can alos bring the king in the game, it is a good piece and hiding it in the corner is playing whitout a piece.
Don't fear, start, e4, Ke2 Kd3 and Kc4, then maybe Kd5

a Knight not once, not twice, but three times in the opening.
Here is a new opening plan. Fianchetto your Rooks!

Good advice. The king is a strong piece and many beginners fear bringing him out too early. The truth is, it is never too early to develop him.

Pffft thats a terrible plan you would have to move both knights twice to get that position. Only a complete novice would move a knight not once, but twice...twice.

Nimzovitch advocates this opening in My System Part II which
was never published but I found the manuscript in a dustbin
outside his house.
In bobby fischers 61st memorable game he refutes this opening. That is why Nimzovitch never published My system II. He was so embarrased about supporting a refuted opening that he scrapped the whole book and threw it in a dustbin.
Bobby fischer never published the 61st game because, he heard that Nimzovitch liked the opening and so he did not want to reveal the refutation, so he could use it against Nimzovitch in the WC match.
