Need help in openings

I am strictly a e4 player, i like tactical games and am terrible at d4 games.. but when someone plays e4, i play the main sicillian, and i have been playing that for a long time, that i have gotten really bored with the main line, really bore, whenever i play c5 my brain just shuts off, and i do very badly with black.. but if anyone has some tactical response to 1: e4 other than the main sicillian that would be great.. first i should say that i don't like caro cann or the french at all.. maybe some good variation for black other than the main line.. but recently i have been trying some unorthodox b3, in which sometimes i can throw in e4 or d4, i really like that opening, playing without theory is really fun and i can finally think.. but my question is is b3 or g3 a tactical opening? like does it lead to tactical positions, or is it a positional opening? or any other tactical responses which you can think of are flexible, for e4..

1 b3 or 1 g3 can lead to tactical as well as positional games.
If you like 1 b3 or 1 g3 as white then you can play 1 e4 b6 or 1 e4 g6 as black. You then can also play 1 d4 b6 and 1 d4 g6 just the same.

I kind of want to say that if you find the Sicilian boring then you probably just don't understand the Sicilian, but I also kind of know what you mean - it has a reputation as a fighting, counterpunching opening, but a lot of the time the counterpunches take their time coming, so if you don't know what you're doing then you can end up just getting squashed with no ideas for how to fight back.

Is there a reason not to just play e5?

e5 i don't like, it is just boring for black and white is one step ahead.. But i will try and refresh my study of the sicilian opening.... I used to play it alot in bullet, but almost always got inferior positions in it.. Now i want to seriously improve and play rapid, and am looking for solid tactical openings.

P.S i haven't seriously studied e5 for black, or i think i haven't ever played it..but when someone plays e5 against me i get a comfortable position, and i am the one leading.. there is a big chance i am wrong lol..

Try the najdorf, i can not imagine how u could be bored.

Play e6, which is the french defense. Its solid, and has many opportunities counter-attacking from the sides. And it also has a lot of variations, which means theres a lot of things you could find, keeping you not bored

Yeah i'll try it, but i regret playing bullet and blitz games, in those games i was just making moves in a second, and that has made hate one of my favorite openings.. @UnabomberFR i should relearn the najdorf, and play it again probably..

At ur level very few player know the theory. With internet u can play lot of blitz games to train and analyze after. Anyway also at ur level many anti sicilians. Lichess has a free databe, and u can create studies to memorize and save variants, u should look the database after each game.

#4 dunno, to me it seems a bit hasty to dismiss something like a quarter of all chess games ever played as "boring for black".

accelareted dragon or paulsen in Sicilian,study sicilian Kan,and Taimanov ,on E6 sicilian ..and dragon too
