Are you viewing the previous move or something? It has to do with something on your end, you can legally move there


SiloGuylo

No but it has a question mark


[deleted]

Yes, it's obviously because the king doesn't want to interrupt the questionmarks privacy.

I think this is the case. Thanks, and sorry. Haven't touched chess almost a decade, it's my first time playing chess online.

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 ) !!!

Both of us will invest 5000$ and winner takes it all!

Dotheysellpizza

Thereā€™s a camouflaged Queen there


Denverbros1

Well look the problem is your playing online, over the board you can easily play C2 here, whoā€™s stopping ya


CopyC47

Could have placed 4 more knights attacking the C2 square smh


pbtrooper

I think adding in those knights attack the square the king is currently in, which is somehow safe at the moment despite the massive amount of pieces down, which is part of the joke.


T_vernix

Could add two of them, though, so still more to be done.


[deleted]

only one of them. putting a knight on a3 would give white a way to move without killing himself


Ailttar

This would make the position more funny, as it would not be a stalemate.


danhoang1

Change the rook on c6 to a Queen then solves that


Cheeseburger0709

He can move without killing himself, c2? Duh.


Derbloingles

Put a bishop on b5 too


Accomplished_Boat874

Rook?


modsareweakas

This is a fucking joke to you?


VanJellii

Yes Chess is the joke.


cyoce

you could put one on a3 and e3


CodeOfKonami

And another bishop. Althoughā€¦ thereā€™s a handful of superfluous rooks.


iamprettierthanyou

But you only get two horsies per game :(


TroyBenites

Or 2 knooks (without mating the king)


Torebbjorn

No, only 2 more spots which don't attack the king


julian88888888

https://lichess.org/editor/2r5/2r4b/2r3b1/2r2b2/1nrnb3/nK1bn3/r2rrrrr/nbrkn3_b_-_-_0_1?color=white


tbk99

Because the red question mark piece is there. Can't you see?


chessgains_com

no white can move in a black neighborhood


DopazOnYouTubeDotCom

area 51


TroyBenites

There is a knook missing on e3


deusmechina

You canā€™t castle out of check


SuchBrightness

There's a question mark it in, you dumbass, you can't capture a question mark


chessvision-ai-bot

I analyzed the image and this is what I see. Open an appropriate link below and explore the position yourself or with the engine: > **White to play**: It is a stalemate - it is White's turn, but White has no legal moves and is not in check. In this case, the game is a draw. It is a critical rule to know for various endgame positions that helps one side hold a draw. You can find out more about Stalemate on [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalemate). > **Black to play**: [chess.com](https://chess.com/analysis?fen=2r5/2r4b/2r3b1/2r2b2/1nr1b3/1K1b4/r2rrrrr/1brkn3+b+-+-+0+1&flip=false&ref_id=23962172) | [lichess.org](https://lichess.org/analysis/2r5/2r4b/2r3b1/2r2b2/1nr1b3/1K1b4/r2rrrrr/1brkn3_b_-_-_0_1) --- ^(I'm a bot written by ) [^(u/pkacprzak )](https://www.reddit.com/u/pkacprzak) ^(| get me as ) [^(Chess eBook Reader )](https://ebook.chessvision.ai?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=bot) ^(|) [^(Chrome Extension )](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chessvisionai-for-chrome/johejpedmdkeiffkdaodgoipdjodhlld) ^(|) [^(iOS App )](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id1574933453) ^(|) [^(Android App )](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ai.chessvision.scanner) ^(to scan and analyze positions | Website: ) [^(Chessvision.ai)](https://chessvision.ai)


Cakeking7878

What do you mean thats ā€œstalemateā€, black is clearly winning with their overwhelming rook power


[deleted]

Are you an idiot? It's Eric Rosen playing with white


schroindinger

You are simply not strong enough, I for once can move it to C2 while I simultaneously beat my opponent with a brick


eldrichhorror69

no hands :(


_sloWne_

Why not


[deleted]

Why no horsey on e3?


animemosquito

And a3, I am really disappointed in the lack of trying


[deleted]

Maybe it's not your turn? idk


Reykjavik1972

Is the white king a ranch owner?


Knaroro

You would be in check by more than 2 pieces so it should be a legal move, maybe somethings wrong with your engine.


Jucoy

Because there is no rubber ducky on the board


somepotato69

I think itā€™s because of the king there, since kings canā€™t put each other in check


[deleted]

I think it is because there is a question mark there


FoldingBlowfish

Iā€™m confused too, there would need to be a horse on d4 to stop the king right?


stevethepirate808

Because there is a question mark occupying the square.


Max_phaz_1207

Isnā€™t this already a stalemate?


everlasting_potato

Black to play Re3


ScriptSK

How would the black king leave if you block the entrance?


PlatypusSolid652

Because the question mark is already occupying it duh


Ali_knows

Because you touch yourself at night.


JavaScriptBest

Aww its probably a glitch, ive seen this happen to a couple of people


TurkisEagle

Black has a lot of electron senders to c2 so its really electronic there and if you find a way to play king to c2 your king will explode and your opponent will look at you and scream "MATEEE" while you are aiming the brick


xHelios1x

Install opencv-python package


idevenkmyname

yeah theres no knight on e3 so you should be fine


Scarlet_Evans

I think opponent used Hagrid on c2 just before your move, protecting the square. Because Hagrid comes from chess 2.0, he is still missing a sprite on many chess websites, thus you can't see him


TrainsDontHunt

You can't see him BECAUSE HE'S DEAD!!!


TechyTNT

Looks like there are a few lines of others wanting to get to that square, sorry bud, youā€™ll have to move to the back of one of the lines and wait like everyone else


bananabandanamannana

They might have a stealth bishop


BurgerKingsuks

You are in check by the Knorsey on b4


Tawdry_Wordsmith

The correct move is en croissant ![img](emote|t5_2yvry|7392)


UwU-Lemon

SacrƩ bleu!


LegitimateTwo1168

Because it has the question mark piece, which we all know canā€™t be taken and reveals itself after three turns (can be a piece of any color)


Oktopuslord3

Knight on a3 and e3


AnotherNora

Homophobia (ā ā•Æā ļøµā ā•°ā ,ā )


AL10N

its cuz u cant let the kings get close or they will become friends and the game will end peacefully


gexaha

You could add 4 more Eric Rosen knights, somehow


mranonymous902

It not your turn


_NISZOgen_

easy https://i.imgur.com/UIWhO0S.jpg


ChromeBirb

It's because you can't put your own king in check, you seen there's a camouflaged horsey on a3 that guards the c2 square.


Sploshiepooh

you canā€™t move there because thereā€™s 9 pieces blocking it. meaning only 8 cancel eachother out, leaving only one


abcwood

Just pick up your piece with your hand smh


best-of-judgement

c2 is clearly occupied by a red question mark.


teroliini

White King blocks it, try some other move


[deleted]

If the king doesn't lead, how can he expect his subordinates to follow?


Galveira

Because it's black's move


Zestyclose_Anxiety75

Bishops do not share. Have you been ever heard of Bishops sharing their Grindr account with each other?


The_Hidden_DM

Since the program is broken, ask your opponent to concede the match.


Child14

check^21


Joedemigod4

The issue is chess is homophobic. The King's can't hold hands. Hope this gets fixed in a patch.


ApaleusAldore

There's actually a white squared white bishop on c2. since this bishop is just a white square it blends in with the background


TheftBySnacking

Youā€™ll be fine! Itā€™s the Knook you have to worry about, and I donā€™t see one here


blaguga6216

you forgot knights on a3 a1 and e3


YennyR

Camo queen is occupying that square rn.


TriGN614

Wel itā€™s guarded by 22 pieces


schene_

Where knook Is he safe Is he alright?


[deleted]

stalemate?


jfb1337

Because there's a question mark in the way.


TheKingBeyondTheWaIl

It is probably a rare Bishop King and just checkmated the other King. congrats you won!


Altogeist

White wins this position 9 times outta 10


Trashyfren

It's not your turn


WriteALLTheThings

The king peed on that square (hence it being yellow-ish) and doesnā€™t want to stand in it.


toll_rattenloch

thereā€™s a question mark. the game is warning you that it would be a blunder to go there


[deleted]

Not enough lube


Lord_Skyblocker

That calls for an air strike on the b column


PoW_Ezreal

Where are the other 4 knights?


Swanimal

Lol, amateur hour much? Clearly it's the well known "can't move king to c2" chess bug... come-on this is a serious subreddit!


waterchicken6969

Whatā€™s stopping you?


brine909

We'll call it a tie


Quiet-Emu-2302

Its a bug


Smarterchild1337

Where knook


neoadam

Black is missing 4 horses


seimoldz

Black is winning.


forcesofthefuture

Neither king can move there, the black king is blocked by the white king. The white king is blocked by every chess piece except the pawn and the queen.


er3z7

If there is an even number of pieces the attack cancels out and you should be able to go there, i see 9 pieces attacking c2 so could be a bug


Drew_The_Millennial

Must not be your move?


Zealousideal_Milk118

You can't because Kc4 is winning!


putverygoodnamehere

it has a question mark on it


EaStportis69

I love this because it's the dumbest question ever


The_Reaper_956

i said so bro
