#chess discourse

[nexfox-art]

I want chess discourse. I'll start

Pawns are the best pieces and rooks are annoying

[phantompierce-okamoto]

It amuses me when people compare people to chess pieces and they take the coolest person and make them king I’m like??? The king is the most useless piece on the board tbh it’s the constant dumbass in distress and I hate that it determines the fate of the game cuz it’s freaking useless

taking my QUEEN with a KNIGHT?? that's just complete bs. knights are sooo shitty for attacking. u can dodge a knight attack with one move, and it'll take that knight like 4 moves just to get back into a good attacking position!

Yeah, if you’re TELEGRAPHING IT LIKE THAT. But knights aren’t head on offence they’re for THE SUBLTE FINESSING OF PIECE CAPTURE LIKE THE ASSASSINS OF THE OL CHECKERBOARD THAT THEY ARE!!!! Not my fault u don’t know how to use knights to their full potential anon omg go watch the queens gambit or somethin

it’s homophobic to ship anatoly with florence, a lesbian, but it’s acephobic to ship anatoly with freddie since anatoly is an asexual have you even SEEN the show jfc

hey, hey kay? hey kay? CLEARLY anatoly is aromantic and demihomosexual and i will not stand for this ERASURE in MY OWN HOME. anatoly and molokov is the only acceptable chess ship.
