Since my opponent has played in the center (1,1), I'll take the top-left corner (0,0). This is a strong strategic response to a center opening. By occupying a corner, I create potential winning lines along the top row, left column, and the diagonal. Corner positions generally offer more opportunities for creating "forks" (two potential winning lines) in later moves. While any corner would be equally strong at this point due to board symmetry, taking a corner is generally better than an edge position when responding to a center play.
