This might be a new opening

Do you think this is a good opening?
You should give it a name... I propose The Bowl Of Death.
I dub it Devil horns
No one would play f6 there, they would just take the rook with the bishop.
I've made an opening too. This is a very good opening for your opponents, try it. Not sure about name, could be something about smile... or a river.. or valley. or Dragon!
Another one
is an opening just the first 4/5 moves???? i thought an opening was till at least move 10 when you castle -- i am missing something here

For beginner's this could be very useful as an additional tool to practice opening principles. Lower rated players often forget to develop both of their Rooks and with your opening you're putting them front and center. With one Rook on the same file as their Queen and one Rook on the same file as their King, you're perfectly positions for an attack once the center opens up.
It's an innovative approach and shows that you aren't afraid to deviate from opening theory. This could be a weapon against an opponent that doesn't pay attention. But as @SacrifycedStoat commented earlier, there may be opponents that play 2. Bxa3 instead of 2. f6, because they prefer taking the Rook over not taking the Rook. What do you think?
Additionally, it's possible that there are more positions that can be improved upon. Maybe there are more positions where you haven't considered all viable candidate moves. You should use a chess engine to review your opening and see which moves are strong and which aren't as accurate. That way you'll get more objective feedback than on the forum.
Learning more about Opening Principles is also a good idea, you'll better understand how to evaluate how good your opening is.
