All time?

Compadre_J

The All Time Best Openings for White are:

- Ruy Lopez

- Queen Gambit

The Best Chess players in the World have played these lines. These lines have been considered the Best for decades due to the fact the lines are Classical Chess lines.

——————————————

In Modern Chess times (Today for example), A few other lines have moved to the All Time Best List.

Hypermodern Chess lines have became extremely deadly. They have left imprints on Chess so much so that I would argue they belong on Top All Time List!

A Few of these lines which I think have made their way on to the Top All Time List include:

- Closed Sicilian

- Catalan

- English

- Nimzo-Larsen

These openings have been played by World Chess Champions with devastating effect.
