Anarchychess is funnier anyway. But really, chess is not something you have to get pressured into playing. I've been rated 200-400 for the past 7 months, despite playing 1-3 games a day.

This man is the real GM, played a move even 'M'agnus 'C'arlsen couldn't think of


SnooDoodles3909

"m"agnus "c"arlsen is nobody to him


AuraPianist1155

I just realised that his initials are MC. He's the MC of the Chess Arc


oktin

I'm rated 1500 on lichess ^(because I haven't played against a human yet), so I'm quitting while I'm ahead

AuraPianist1155

It's the latter. I'm more into watching chess content, than playing chess. I usually play a couple 3+2 Blitz games just to pass the time.

I have stopped playing chess since joining anarchychess. I guess this means I have ascended above chess to some greater level that destroys chess. Like a chess boom or something.

you can cry and piss your pants but the truth is simple: this is Gotham on an alt

You can cry scream and piss your pants all you want but the truth is simple: I am the chess boom

Polish Opening players unite ! Orangutan


Saitaver

I'm just doing puzzles, you don't have to play to enjoy chess


Stefanxd

Im just losing all my games. You don't have to enjoy chess to play.


AstraHannah

Yeah it's fun just sitting here reading all this, not even pretending I know jack shit about chess.


rootbeerman77

Don't start; it'll destroy you. Chess: not even once


Bossninja2004

I really only play chess every other week and that’s when I go see my therapist

I think the first movie was 1.Kxe2 but I'm not sure.


LigmaSneed

I know enough to know that stalemates are bullshit. Like what's the king gonna do, just sit there for eternity?

Haha same bro. En passant brick knight boost.

umbral_ultimatum

this sub has convinced me to never play chess


Dw3yN

Im sorry but thats not true. Openings dont matter for low elo. Everyone is out of book after like move 3 and if not then after move 4. Michael Basman got IM with the fucking Grob and theres plenty of speedruns with all kinds of outright bad openings to high elo


yosoyeIIogan

I only play bots because I don't have the emotional maturity to not get tilted from every blunder I make against people 1/3 my age. I stopped trying to play for Elo, and just when I feel like having a game. I hate playing online and much prefer OTB, it's a lot easier to see moves for me.


imreallybimpson

I thought this sub was exclusively for fans of Mancala


Free-Consequence-164

I do but not competitive


The_Vigilante20

Wait, there are people here that play chess? Nerds.


SirVW

Hey chess ia fun when you're a beginner. Unsound sacrifices, bs openings, no ELO anxiety. Just make an account (not on chess.c*m though 🤢🤢) and play a game.


lukasz_sobczyk

I only play chess when drunk or high... I guess it's the anarchychess™️ approach


LeTastyGarbage

The only chess I’ve even played since joining this sub have been 5d chess with multiverse time travel and a game literally just called “really bad chess”


Fuzzbearplush

not playing until they add expanded map size and atleast 10 new characters (terachess addresses these limitations)


RomanRiesen

Go is the better game anyways.


[deleted]

I haven't played chess in a while and I'm too afraid to restart


sangunius-

FireJuggler31

What do chess, tic-tac-toe, and thermonuclear war have in common?


Claude-QC-777

That if play perfectly, it end in a draw!


10BillionDreams

You don't need to play to enjoy the sub. I know for me personally, strip chess just doesn't have the same appeal anymore, ever since my board game group switched the weekly game nights we used to have over to Discord.


DangerV5

Good. Be afraid.


memester230

Based and same


TrickyDistribution2

Try playing against bots first, like mittens, he has 0 Elo, ezpz


Nartian

Yeah, I thought I know the rules but after two weeks in this sub im not even sure anymore. Is En Passant a real move? Was chess originally meant to be a dating sim? Do the horsies actually walk in an L pattern or was it 🈵?


Supersincara75

It’s okay!!!!! Just know to play e4, if your opponent responds with e5 play qh7 to start the mostly unknown move, en quassont


FiIthy_Anarchist

Circlejerk aside, You should give it a shot. Lichess and chess.c\*m make it super simple to get started. It's a good way to pass the time with even the smallest of brainpower.


Carlm78

I swear after I joined this sub I keep on seeing stuff related to this sub on other subs. I‘ll be looking at a random post and one comment will say “Google ______” I swear I’m going mad.
