what your chess opening says about your IQ. the london system - iq 85 you found one that works at 800 elo and decided learning everything else is useless - efficient - boring - very annoying the sicilian defense - iq 94 you would rather memorize 20 moves of theory than think for yourself. probably a bit smart definitely checking the engine after every loss tho the bongcloud - 140+ iq you have mastered chess. try the iq test in bio. but get ready to be humbled. or just dont do it.
