    Something even more crazy crazy is after ND4, if the enemy is smart, he goes QD1, then you push D5, the pawn on E4 takes, Just go BG4 attacking their Queen, Enemy will react with F3. Here we come up with a brilliancy by playing NE4. The enemy is forced to take the bishop, then we play QH4 checking his King and the only legal move for his King is KF1 and BOOM, we go checkmate with QF2#

    Wayward Queen attack is still a great opening in my book, simply because of how disorienting it can be to the unseasoned opponent. I like how the immediate pressure overwhelms some players. However you can tell pretty quickly if the person you're using it against knows how to counter it. Usually after the first couple of parries, you realize just how badly you ***** up 😅

    I used to teach chess in this school most of the kids were beginners and we would always teach the defense to the 4 move mate really early ofc so one year this one kid on his own came up with this g4 after Nf6 move and I swear he won like every game 🤣🤣 no one and I mean no one in that class could find Nd4 and would get obliterated even kids much better than him he'd even play a modified version of this as black if at all possible he was just a great little attacker lol. Anyways his record was getting so ridiculously stacked we had to stop his fun by teaching an entire lesson on what to do after g4 and his win percentage immediately tanked but he was a GOD among mortals in that class for awhile 🤣🤣 good memories
