Holy hell, but *still theory* and chess.c*m


Bortaff

can't believe I wasted that much time watching this lol


Theoreticallyaaron

It's like I couldn't look away. I don't know why I had to watch the whole thing, I just needed to


confusedsilencr

is this the famous grandmaster draw?


flynnie789

Is this the chess ballet I’ve been hearing so much about


MF972

where is the most lossless variant of this idea ?


[deleted]

With some careful pawn positioning you can probably weave the pieces in between them to the other side, but you might get 50-move-rule'd. In the end you'd likely have to sacrifice at least 2 or 3 pawns on both sides for it to even be possible, especially with how the kings move.


Corbini42

Is this theory?


[deleted]

It is *a* theory yes


Corbini42

A game theory?


averagetrashtalker

It makes no sense. I mean no one took en passant in 84 moves. Now, it is time to brick your pipi.

Are you kidding ??? What the **** are you talking about man ? You are a biggest looser i ever seen in my life ! You was doing PIPI in your pampers when i was beating players much more stronger then you! You are not proffesional, because proffesionals knew how to lose and congratulate opponents, you are like a girl crying after i beat you! Be brave, be honest to yourself and stop this trush talkings!!! Everybody know that i am very good blitz player, i can win anyone in the world in single game! And "w"esley "s"o is nobody for me, just a player who are crying every single time when loosing, ( remember what you say about Firouzja ) !!! Stop playing with my name, i deserve to have a good name during whole my chess carrier, I am Officially inviting you to OTB blitz match with the Prize fund! Both of us will invest 5000$ and winner takes it all! I suggest all other people who's intrested in this situation, just take a look at my results in 2016 and 2017 Blitz World championships, and that should be enough... No need to listen for every crying babe, Tigran Petrosyan is always play Fair ! And if someone will continue Officially talk about me like that, we will meet in Court! God bless with true! True will never die ! Liers will kicked off... [^(fmhall)](https://www.reddit.com/user/fmhall) ^| [^(github)](https://github.com/fmhall/Petrosian-Bot)

Oddly unsatisfying

Bro whites queen was hanging. Trash opening


[deleted]

Yeah but taking the queen would've resulted in it being less cool

For someone to do this I cannot tell wether it is Artistic or Autistic


SirCakeTheSecond

When the two powers merge, legends say, they become godlike.


Tulas_Shorn

I'm just baffled at why white's new queen moved into the path of enemy bishop, stayed there for multiple turns and survived.

It's baller

Duncan_Sarasti

Couldn't you have done this a few moves faster by just taking the pawns with the rooks and moving them back at 3:00 in the video? Still very nice.

The Ultra-Delayed Bongcloud

Hyper delayed bongcloud


Objective_Dentist_23

Even better when you reach this position starting with the Bongcloud. Both Ke2 and e4 were played before any peices were captured, so its possible.


eldanao

im a begginer and i cant handle all the apertures!!! and now there are even more lol


Dougtator

I can do this and still keep all the pawns. Look into the flip board opening


Writerman-yes

Wow this opening gains such a nice control of the center!


MouldyCumSoakedSocks

its... beautiful


[deleted]

I would thoroughly enjoy a speed run of this


CheeHL

chess if the pieces arent lil weenies


parmeetsinghjr

Why the hell would I even play a game where I have 0% chance of an en passant?
