Ruy Lopez. +20=1-2 record as White with it here. (Also have scored +10=1-3 from the Black side.)
YOUR best opening.
Sort:
The Morra or King's Gambit are most fun for me OTB.
I have to say as white Best and most played opening is the King's Gambit. As black, agains e4 it is The French, then against anything else I transpose it into the Nimzo-Indian. Very Classical as white, very Hypermodern as black... except against e4. Sometimes you just have to fight fire with fire!
I like the Scotch game or the Evans Gambit for white.
As Black, I play e5 or the Nimzo-Indian.(or any type of Indian Defence)
Exchange Slav, Exchange QGD, Exchange KID as White.
French, Slav as Black.
Ruy Lopez exchange variation as white, and Caro Cann as black...
Roy lopez exchange variation for white/Grob's attack
Tiger's Modern for black
NOBODY HAS SAID THE HALLOWEEN GAMBIT!
I'm best with the Italian as white, the Sicilian Najdorf as black against 1. e4, and the Nimzo-Indian as black against 1. d4.
I'm best at Ruy, but I've recently been experimenting with the King's Gambit and I'm really enjoying it.

That would be because it is awful.

Queen's gambit, Karlsbad Variation, which is characterized by the pawn structure formed after an early exchange on d5, as follows:
Usually, white's strategy is to push b4 and b5 and create a weakness in the form of either a backward pawn on c6 or an isolated pawn on d5, depending on black's choice. Black usually aims for play on the kingside.
