I like to play the 1.c4 English opening and consider myself a novice chess player. The move 1.c4 aims for a more flexible and strategic fight for the center. It often transposes into other openings and can lead to a wide variety of positional battles. This move does not commit to controlling the center as directly as 1.e4 but fights for it with a flank pawn, allowing for a more gradual buildup.
