The Clemenz (Mead's, Basman's or de Klerk's) opening

Summary:

The Clemenz (Mead's, Basman's or de Klerk's) opening is very rare and occurs in less than 1 in 1000 games. From the data, you can expect that White will have a very high 53.07% chance of winning, while Black should only have a 46.93% chance of winning. Because of the fact that most players probably have never seen this opening, and that Black has such a low expected chance of winning, it may be well worth it to keep this variation in your back pocket. Since as White, you should have a significant edge and will probably catch your opponent off guard.
