Answers.Text: What I would need is something like that lichess opening explorer, just that I can filter for (all) players who predominantly play a specific opening. I know I can filter for individual players, but no group of players.

  Usually you can use your database (or the [lichess analysis board](https://lichess.org/analysis)) to see the most popular replies to certain openings.
  
  Lichess specifically sorts between masters and their online database, and you can see the exact number of times (and the correlating percentage out of the most popular replies) moves have been played in response.
