Best Chess Openings

"A knowledge of tactics is the foundation of positional play. This is a rule which has stood its test in chess history and one which we cannot impress forcibly enough upon the young chess player.
A beginner should avoid the Queen's Gambit and French Defence and play open games instead! While he may not win as many games at first, he will in the long run be amply compensated by acquiring a thorough knowledge of the game."

- Richard Reti, Masters of the Chessboard, 1930

Beginners (and others) should play open games:
- open games are more lively and more fun because of all the tactics
- open games are easier to get ideas in because of all the tactics
- open games are better for learning about the game because of all the tactics

Only after mastering the open games you should try out closed games like the queens gambit, London System etc.
Don't play the Philidor Defense, London System as your first opening. I know there are lot of books, courses and youtubers who sell these opening as openings for lazy players, easy to learn without any effort, autopilot moves and plans etc.

However, one must say that it depends what your goals are. If you just want to have fun, play some blitz bullet games then play whatever opening you like.

Best openings for beginners are the ones that conform to the well-known opening principles. You want to control the center, castle to safety and develop your pieces. So no fancy hyper-modern stuff is recommended.

The best opening for beginers is Evans gambit. Easy to learn and a lot of attacking games.

It's not exactly heavyweight analysis, but I think that what they're looking for is mostly straightforward development without too many potential pitfalls and a robust, obvious, active plan. They rate the Reti Opening, the London System, the Sicilian Dragon and the Queens Gambit fairly highly on that basis, so they don't buy into the e4 e5 dogma, but they do dump a lot of fairly major opening systems for being too damn complex and counterintuitive.

@Goodytwoshoes99 Thank you very much for the information, but this account is not my real account, and I only play with my friends on here. That is the reason why my rating is up. I do not use this account for normal mathes. PS: I am not a beginner... and I usually play games when I am about to sleep, so there's that. Even with my blunders, I was still able to checkmate an opponent with a rating of 2000 just now. And I like to teach my friends about chess, if I am not simply just having fun with them, I am letting my friends checkmate me sometimes.

i think if you play openings such as the french, sicilian, english, or even d4, you'll be playing a bunch of guys (at your beginner level) who are used to open openings, such as the italian, leading to the evans or even something maybe like the danish... if you play an opening most beginners play, you'[ll all be kind of doing the same thing, enabling you to learn from each other. if you decide to launch yourself into the oddball english or french, i just think it's frustrating, because few of your peers play those openings, will not understand what is happening, and it'll just be a ................ train wreck. just a mess of loose pawns, crazily placed pieces.

now, if you are playing more advanced guys than yourself, then i guess they'll beat your brains out in the strange french or english or crazy-ass sicilian, cause they'll no it, more or less. if that's what you wnat, go 4 it! many advocate this as a good way to learn (the brain bashed in approach, playing guys who can mop the floor with your brain stem and or pituitary gland to boot). kind of the sink or swim approach.

I think both the Italian Game and the Sicilian Defense are good, I use them both.
At least I THINK that's what I use.
I haven't memorized the chess opening names.
