This guy is one unfair ruling away from becoming a Batman villain.

His name? The Rookie

You would have some good episodic titles with Harley Quinn and the Dark Knight involved

I think he can already qualify as a stand user.

He wanted to be called a Chess-head, but they just ended up calling him Checkers. :(

KittenBiscuits@lemm.ee · 9 pts · 1y

He asked for a thirteen but they drew a thirty-one.

Chess is his kink and he's just waiting for the right king/queen/rook to traverse all-over him.

Yeah watching pawn doesn't cut it

Those eyes are looking for a mating sequence.

No one is En passant-ing on getting in on this action.

I don't see you guys rating
The kind of mate I'm contemplating
I'd let you watch, I would invite you
But the queens we use would not excite you

It's part of the strategy, it's called camouflage.

Oh, you think the chess board is your ally, but you merely adopted the game. I was born in it, molded by it.

Dragomus@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y

Is this the 4D chess I keep hearing about?

Qc7 -> C5 C6 and protect that knight.

Edit: id10t error

Postmortal_Pop@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y (1 reply)

White could just take the queen with theirs, I'd take Rb8 -> d8

dohpaz42@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

Sigh. Classic “me”. I meant c6, not c5. Thanks.

If you wanna play chess, use your head.

yooo I've got an idea for my next hair dye session :D I haven't thought about doing that yet
