Lemming DefenceEdit
1...Na6Edit
The Lemming Defense is considered a weak response to the King's Pawn Opening, as it develops the Knight to an inferior square, allows White quick and easy development, and opens no lines for developing Black's pieces. Therefore, the Lemming Defense is very uncommon. It also enables the white to capture the knight with the f1 bishop, doubling black’s pawns.
