tbh i wouldnt be too worried about new players becoming dependent on these new openers to win. it’s more about having a deep understanding of advanced movement mechanics before anything else imo.

the initial 50/50 opening sequence isn’t consistently winnable so your best bet is to work with what you got after that. a movelist like this only covers the first turn the next 2 or so turns after but beyond that it’s not really effective.

I really do feel like the idea needs to be expanded a little, going beyond openers and all that jazz, all the way to fundamentals, such as:

-How do I generate momentum?
-How do I properly defend myself?
-How do I properly attack?

I think telling people how to play the first and maybe second turn just won't help them too much, we can instead help them figure out what makes a move effective, and let them do their own openers based off of that knowledge.
