Simple. Best response to e4 for positional play.

I am asking since i don't really like very sharp positions, though i can be okay in them. Though i am too much of a beginner to worry about that. Still, a response to the question above would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Look at what positional players like Capablanca and Karpov played: Ruy Lopez, Petrov, Caro-Kann

I think the ruy lopez or petrov is great. especially since the petrov comes as a surprise, its kind of rare in top play now.

try scandi. It is like a caro can for noobs, easier and worse. Still solid and positional

ok thanks

1...e5, 1...e6 or 1...c6 is what you're looking for.

u wanna play chess play c5 u would love it trust me

e4 e5

Bologan has very good repertoire books on it - he separated the Spanish Opening of the other systems.

I would look at the Berlin Defence:

Also quite positional is the Kalasknikow Line:
