My record against the French defence is terrible!

For me, there is a lot of tactics in the advanced variation. In the exchange, try to take advantage of the e file.
@Mahith1708 You should not tell in forums in which chess opening you are bad otherwise everyone will see this forum and will use it again you should try to discover more about new openings to overcome it
Try the Winawer for sharp play. But if play Nf6 instead of Bb4, then Bg5 or e5. Also the 2 knights is worth a try
@Mahith1708 if you have problems with the endgame, then you should take a look at the plans that the french defense has. also train and learn to evaluate a position better and be more careful
Play the Paulsen Variation

1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3

It does lead to sharper variations than the exchange or Advance variations
