About the Scandinavian defense, white moves the e pawn twice as well, so they're about equal in tempo. Also, the line I see most is Qa5, which kind of develops it. Of course, the Queen ends up moving back later, which is a loss of a tempo there, but at the beginning it's about equal, right?

@konamikong No. Bishop would block it and develop that too!

@xdragon2k I thought I removed that comment, yeah I realized after I posted that what I typed wouldn't work.

@hackman1911 I assume you don't see black's knight on c6 defending the black queen. That would cause a trade of queen, and that is not recommended in this situation.
If you do see it, I advise you rewatch the lesson because he just stated that you want to avoid trading pieces if you're down in material.

at 4:27, couldnt black just move the queen in front of the white king?

A clever lecture #2by krakkaskak5,851 views
Regarding the Ruy Lopez exchange example, I do understand that ...Qf6 QxQ NxQ does give a tempo away, but I've read somewhere that in this variation White has practically won a pawn because of Black's doubled pawns, and that in fact it is to White's advantage to exchange all pieces as soon as possible to go into a winnable endgames. Unfortunately I've forgotten the source, but hopefully this is still something worth responding to.

while black does have the doubled pawns, white is hardly winning in that variation. the extra c-pawn is going to be able to control an important central square (either d5 or d4 if it moves to c5). in fact, after exchanging the queens on f6, i like black's position better, as does fritz.
