In Chess960 the back-rank pieces are shuffled (with bishops on opposite colours and the king between the rooks), so opening theory goes out of the window from move one.

- Do you enjoy it, or do you miss your normal openings?
- What general principles still help you when everything is shuffled?
- Should ChessStride add Chess960 games and tournaments? 👀
