    If we can hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

      Remember, Kif, in the game of chess, you can never let the opponent see your pieces.

      there’s nothing wrong with that metaphor, Kif is just a snob

    I swear every time I play that game, half my army ends up being pawns, the weakest piece.

      Pawns aren’t pieces :)

    make sure that there a mirror behind your opponent, this way you can see his pieces

    I read this as “cheese” instead of “chess” and was really confused for a sec…

      I like your version better. Those cheese strategists can suck it.

        There’s only one cheese strat. You see cheese you eat cheese 🤤

        OK, no, because I’m a huge cheese strategist. Feta and gorgonzola haunt my waking mind like specters of gastronomical pleasure, wraiths of fermented delight.

    rolls dice

    Moves horse 7 places

    “Go directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200.”

    Is chess even a real game?!

    Football is like chess, except for the dice

    I prefer more competitive games like Polytopia

    Free to play players can at least restart their account until they get at least one 5* Queen, but even then it’s hard to beat the whales.

    Jumpyhorse! I choose YOU!!! Use jump attack!

      If horsey isn’t the best piece then why is it my favorite?

  • tpihkal@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    It never fails, I always end up with the boot, the thimble or Col. Mustard.

    The pawns are so cute

    Chess960 is luck, but both sides have the same luck.

      In theory some configurations have stronger or weaker first mover advantage. This is known as white privilege.

    King (Planeswalker) - 1 (colorless) - 1/1

    While in play it is functionally useless, but if it’s loyalty drops to 0 the game ends immediately and you lose.

    “Who invented this useless piece, what were they thinking?”

  • NONE_dc@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    I slam a Royal Flush against the table.

    Checkmate, plebs!
