They insist that the point of the game is to capture the now-defenceless queen, at which point the winner screams “Cuck! And mate!”
It would be funny if there was a mechanic by which the queen could attract/carry one of its own minor pieces or pawns. Call it “simp”
Already in the game! When a pawn reaches the end of the board (donated all its money to an e-girl) you can exchange it for a queen.
En passant? What about castling bro? In one turn you get to:
- Move your king two squares
- Let it pass through your rook
- Develop your rook toward the central files
Nobody is gonna believe that’s a legal move.
Castling: English word, cool and normal
En Passant: Fr*nch word, silly and weird
simple as
Why are half the characters black in that DEI hell hole??! So tired of that woke bullshit.
En passant was literally added as a balance patch.
Originally, pawns could only move one square. However, to speed up the openings, they started playing so that the first move pawns made could be 2 squares.
That created a dilemma, though; now, if an opponent pawn was in position to capture yours if it moved forward one square from its start, you could evade capture by moving two squares instead. So they created the en passant rule, which allowed the capture of a pawn moving two squares as if it had moved just one square instead.
One lib rails against the divisiveness of hypermodern play, pleads for a return to the moderate centre ground. Another suggests turning the board sideways so everyone gets to attack the left.
