GG, gypyx, thanks for the game!
I think it was a hard move to spot fwiw (I was considering what to do if king blocked and it took me like, ~a while~, to realise the pawn was pinned)

I think Scandinavians are like my second favourite to play against after e4 e5, but without analysing it I thought you were doing fine until like move 12 and then the underdevelopment/king safety started to be an issue

was doing bad from move 9, move 13 was my big blunder apparently
think i just don't have the right playstyle for that opening, do you know any good opening for doing pawnstorms?

I used to play the French and castle queenside (when I was playing a bit about 3 years ago), but I've gone off that since starting to play again
I would imagine that in most openings where black gets to castle opposite side there's good potential for pawn storming, so I'd say maybe just pick one where that's doable and then go for it?
But like probably you might wanna ask umlaut or something, I'm new-ish to chess and am still trying out a variety of openings myself!
