In this variation of the Scandinavian Defense, Black aims for an active piece play and seeks to capitalize on White's pawn structure. After the early exchange on c3, White typically has a strong pawn center and aims to consolidate while preparing for piece development, whereas Black will look to challenge the center and create counterplay against the exposed pawns. The resulting pawn structure often leads to dynamic play, appealing to aggressive players who enjoy tactical complications and unbalanced positions.
