960 Aggresive vs. Positional

Sort:
Muramune

When given the option, do you 960 players like to go on the offensive and try to take as much of the center first with pawns and/or try to disrupt your opponent's position? Or would you rather develop your pieces around the center and play more positionally? I'd call this hypermodern vs. classical, but sometimes I don't think that exists in 960.

I clearly haven't played much 960 if you look at my profile but I'd have to say it would probably depend on what kind of starting position you are dealt

It is not corny! "Corny" is just a property we prescribe on something we do not understand. Chess960 is the future of chess in the modern computer era. Standard chess is position 518 in Chess960 so enjoy.
