1. d3 · Mieses Opening

[edit | edit source]

This move is playable but not played much as it does little to claim the center and potentially locks in the light squared bishop. It would normally transpose into the King's Indian Attack, or with colours reversed, a Modern, Pirc, or King's Indian defence. Not a very common opening as many player desire to claim the center with a more conventional approach with 1. d4 or 1. e4.
