Actually 2. Na3 is a pretty decent move...

Yes, it is not really sound, but who knows the exact refutation anyway 🙂

Larsen used to say that d4 was a mistake.

In his early days, Fisher never played d4. He usually played a KIA.

Play 2. Nc3.

Then play either f4 or g3.

King's indian attack.

Not necessarily in this order. But, e4, Nf3, g3, d3, Bg2

Here is perhaps the most famous example of the King's Indian Attack:

Fischer-Myagmarsuren, Sousse Interzonal 1967 1.e4 e6 2.d3 d5 3.Nd2 Nf6 4.g3 c5 5.Bg2 Nc6 6.Ngf3 Be7 7.O-O O-O 8.e5 Nd7 9.Re1 b5 10.Nf1 b4 11.h4 a5 12.Bf4 a4 13.a3 bxa3 14.bxa3 Na5 15.Ne3 Ba6 16.Bh3 d4 17.Nf1 Nb6 18.Ng5 Nd5 19.Bd2 Bxg5 20.Bxg5 Qd7 21.Qh5 Rfc8 22.Nd2 Nc3 23.Bf6 Qe8 24.Ne4 g6 25.Qg5 Nxe4 26.Rxe4 c4 27.h5 cxd3 28.Rh4 Ra7 29.Bg2 dxc2 30.Qh6 Qf8 31.Qxh7+ 1-0 [1]

This is versus a French, but you can see where you could reach the same position by transposition.
