King's Pawn Game: Wayward Queen Attack, Kiddie Countergambit
Overview
King's Pawn Game: Wayward Queen Attack, Kiddie Countergambit is a sacrificial opening line filed under ECO C20 in the Open Games group. The defining idea is the early concession of material to seize the initiative and unbalance the position.
The Open Games group covers open games — classical 1.e4 e5 openings where both sides contest the centre directly with pawns.
It begins with 4 plies and takes 1. e4 e5 2. Qh5 Nf6 to reach the canonical position.
In the opening tree, this line branches off from King's Pawn Game: Wayward Queen Attack, part of the broader King's Pawn Game system.
