Worrall Attack

White plays the unusual 6.Qe2, intending to support the e4 pawn with the queen and free the f1 rook for d1 instead of e1. Named after the British player Thomas Worrall, this sidesteps mainstream Marshall and Closed Ruy theory while still aiming for the standard d4 break. Practical and surprisingly venomous against unprepared opponents.
