Ofc, and tht is completly fine. It was just a warning, that just learning the main line won't be enough

That’s the Czech defense.

I used to play French defense, but now I believe the Caro-Kann defense is best by test. If white plays accurately, black would be struggling to survive in the French defense. I'm not a big fan of memorising tens of lines just to avoid losing in the opening.
I recommend the Tartakower variation 1. e4 c6 2. d4 d5 3. Nc3 dxe4 4. Nxe4 Nf6 5. Nxf6+ exf6, because I think the white h4 attack in the mainline is too tricky and sharp for beginners. You have to play very accurately to survive the h4 attack, which defeats the purpose of Caro-Kann as a solid, less-memorising defense.

If white tries the h4 attack in Tartakower variation, he just gives black an easy game. Apparently the Tartakower variation is more solid than the mainline. Most white players don't know how to exploit black's doubled pawns at my level.

it is actually relatively simple, there are "some lines" but those are mostly cause white players will try to go for tricks and aggressive setups which in turn if black remembers the same pattern will be able to equalize and have a comfortable position

My Problem with it, is tht it is not forced, so u will get into a new pos every time, which Kind of loses the advantage of knowing the opening
