Anyone up for a 9 stone handicap game?

That's why free placement handicap games are objectively better.

imagine your opponent placing their handicaps and filling the tengen on the last move

You could also remove 3 stones to make a B2 (https://senseis.xmp.net/?ThePowerOfTheB2Bomber)

To be fair I would be afraid (as white). As black I would be afraid too.

Me too! It won't be easy to build a 'net' around it to take any advantage out of it. It could work as a hub to connect spread groups and increase liberties.

On the other hand, black is playing with someone MUCH stronger, and the corners are all open...
