💻 🐒 I DONT USE A CHESS COMPUTER

though i find them ok. if i see a gang of polish lads with cans of beer, i actually feel safer than if it's a gang of chavs

okay

what is en passant?

that's a peasant 2 foward and left / right kill

who fucking ever does en passant

from like 90 matches it only happens twice

i've only used en passant against people who didn't know the en passantt rule

and then they have a tantrum as they think i'm making something up

Yes, but it's mainly to prevent theo other player from being able to make ceratain moves

i guess it's a buff for defense but thats it?

like idk, its ... fine?

whats castling?

well tbh, if u already know en passant ur gonna know castling lmao

that was a bit of a 🐒 question sorry

Well, anyway., That's why I picked it

It's not commonly used.

y

So you'd have to know chess rules.

what other obscure rules are there

3 fold repitition?

50 move rule?

I'm not sure.

oh wtf, dunno either of those

What is the most obscure one?

3 fold repetition is, the game is a draw if an identical position reoccurs 3 times

50 move rule is the same - if there is no pawn move for 50 turns

the saddest part is, i'm not even semi good at chess, but i play it from time to time because it's addictive <:pepehands:378719408367075333>

though i'm not sure the 50 move rule is used these days

I wanted to pick something that is kind of unknown by noobs but not that arbitrary.

i'm crap at it, which is sad because in my teens i put a lot of effort into trying to get good

awesome, now i know there's worse players than me <:trumped:440551399772913674>

Hmm ... I can't think of anything else.

Google also seems to yield nothing new.

Someone mentions draw by insufficient mating material.

But nobody has ever called my material insufficient for mating, so I think I'm fine.

so anyone actually wanna do a round with me?

lol

chads move on to go, chess is for virgins.

No, I don't want to play, because I'm not good enough for basic chess computers.

GO looks terffying
