Why is the queen the strongest piece>
Men like chess and men like strong busty women. Waifufags exist since antiquity.
Used to be the minister or vizier.I don't know why ministers were the strongest piece.
>>94785325Some people like to come up with chess variants to mix up the game. Fairy chess is the easiest example.Sometimes those variants catch on and become the new default. All it took was somebody saying 'hey, what if we made this piece that can only move 1 square diagonally a bishop combined with a rook', and then people liked games more with that new overpowered piece instead of a weak piece.
>>94785325It isn't, only retards think so. You can win the game without a queen but not without a king.
>>94785325>Why is the queen the strongest pieceShe is replaceable.
>>94785579Which infers that all pawns are girls. And since the pawn can become other pieces too, they must girls as well.
The queen is the most powerful because he is the gayest of the chessmen
>>94785325In Russian, the pieces on a chess board aren't named after a royal court. The queen is a masculine word that doesn't mean anything except as the name of that chess piece.>>94785344The opposite of this. Probably caught on because Chess was considered an appropriate game for women.
>>94785325Cringe crongle
>>94785325>Why is the queen the strongest piece>It used to be the weakest piece back when chess was a much slower game (shatranj), it could only move one space diagonally. At some point between being imported from India to Europe it got a major, major power boost. Its name also changed; it was the Counselor (ferz/wazir).
>>94785611>In RussianWhy would anyone care about that dead language?
>>94785325It's about political restrictions. Kings are carefully watched, and must not be seen to act rashly or, God forbid, out of fear. Thus, they act through their intermediaries (all the other pieces), and do very little directly.Queens, on the other hand, aren't subject to those restrictions, and can move and operate politically however they please, because they aren't subject to those same expectations. Their freedom of movement reflects this.From a game design perspective, how the fuck would you checkmate a queen? Possible, but holy fuck that would be hard.
>>94785325Because chess is an NTR battle-harem where you capture the enemy waifus.
>>94785594>soldier after reaching the back of the enemy lines
>>94785594So chess is just two dudes sicking their harems on each other.
>>94785931But the horse is also a woman...
>>94785951Isn't it just.

>>94785325The Kings in chest have certain preferences for strong, tomboy ladies.
>>94785325Chess is femdom codee
>>94785510Yeah when you lost the game you can't win, retard. You can win without the queen but it will be much harder.
>>94785579>>94785594this>>94785918yes
>>94785951https://youtu.be/hm1Ok8HJo10?si=AuHA2jZXd_5525acNo, the rider of the horse is the woman.
>>94785430The Vizier's moveset used to be a lot weaker, basically a pawn that went diagonal instead of forward. The current theory is the Spanish were responsible for changing it into a Queen and expanding the moveset, due to Isabella I's power and political influence.
>>94785918Sic, corrupted from seek. But yeah.
Chess is about units, not individual soldiers. It would be a sad battle with only 15 soldiers.The Queen is actually the Queen's Guard, who were often the most elite soldiers in the kingdom. While the King's Guard was tasked with defending the King (and the Queen by extension, since she usually wasn't very far from the King) and were not allowed to travel abroad, the Queen's Guard could travel and did frequently, acting as a task force meant to enforce the King's will. The Queen's Guard is quite a misnomer, because the Queen was not in command of the Queen's Guard, the Queen's Guard didn't actually guard the Queen, and they weren't even really guards. It's just what happens when a unit evolves beyond their original purpose yet still maintain their old name for tradition's sake, not unlike how Grenadiers once referred specifically to units that used grenades, but in many armies slowly just became a term for elite units, with grenades or not.
>>94785325You'll lose the game if the King gets caught. You can lose your Queen in a strategy and get a new Queen later.Why do chesslets keep pushing this bullshit? Do they not understand that Strong doesn't mean Important?
>>94787023The horse is the rider>>94785918And they both have a harem of monster girls.Pawns are slimes
>>94785611>In Russian, the pieces on a chess board aren't named after a royal court. The queen is a masculine word that doesn't mean anything except as the name of that chess piece.that's not true
>>94785594No.You don't need to be female to be a queen, drag already proved that.
>>94785325the queen isn't the strongest piece the king is, technically take any piece a queen included but can never be taken. only stopped the chess "world" revolves around its kings not its queens.
>>94785325Used to be a general.Note: A king is only weak so long as he's under constant attack. He can hunt pawns just fine when time provides. He also serves as a great supporting piece in the endgame or even other times if you know what you're doing, anchoring other pieces so they can't be taken.
>>94785510The king is the most important piece since you lose the game without it, but it's not particularly strong so you need to protect it or you lose. The queen is the strongest piece on the board since it has by far the best movement options. You can win the game without it but if you can remove the opponent's queen while still having yours you'll have a big advantage.
>>94785744>Queens, on the other hand, aren't subject to those restrictionsWhat is blud talking about
>>94786727
>>94785611Not quite.>Korol' - King>Ferz' - Vizier>Ladya(or Tura) - Ship(or Tower)>Slon - Elephant>Kon' - Male horse>Peshka - Foot soldier
>>94785325why are bongs so weird?in the few languages I ever looked up chess pieces' names english is the only one using "queen".In my native tongue we use something effectively translating as "first general", and most other languages I know use something similar
>>94788750This is so stupid.
>>94792529it's AI, of course it's stupid.
>>94785325Because she has sex with the king every day.You try being drained of all your fluids non-stop, you'll be like that too.There are certain responsibilities that come with this title, you know.
>>94794531not with those legs, come on now.

>>94795835There's piles and piles of it. You didn't even look. I've been seeing centaur girl knight art since 2003.
>>94787924Class warfare. The King is useless and weak, every Chess piece is stronger and actually does the work. The King is just a parasite.
>>94785325She's not, the king is - he's so strong you just lose the game without him.
>>94785325
>>94792040This is used by morons to act as if the horse anus is inherently clean. It's not. Its often covered in shit.
>>94785325There are many theories.1.The queen in some languages is called the lady referencing Mary mother of Jesus.2.It was romantically described as essential to the king's survival, so that when the queen was lost, there was nothing more of value on the board.3.It was symbolic of the power of noble woman had over men in the tradition of courtly. Many knights devoted their lives to a woman they might never who would be betrothed to another.4.Its rules were a chess variant invented in Spain inspired after Queen Isabella I. When the Jews were expelled from Spain they spread this chess variant across Europe.This chess variant was called queen's chess or madwoman's chess.
>>94785918Battle harem is actually a fun concept desu
>>94792234The original chess pieces name was kept the the same but since people didn't know what fers refers to it was feminized in many languages. Since it was seen as feminine it was given many feminine nicknames. Spain and many Catholic countries gave it the nickname of Lady during the great chess reform. Protestant countries such as England didn't want to reinforce a cult of the Virgin Mary opted to use the secular name of Queen.
>>94785325this feels fundamentally wrong>>94795996this is fine though
>>94785325You can lose the queen and still win, you can also turn any pawn into a queen. If you lose the king, the game ends.
>>94785882>king has all the money>king is the only one the citizins accept orders fromThere is a reason why the king is so important.
>>94792529Carry we who die in battle, over land and seaAcross the rainbow bridge to Valhalla, Odin's waiting for me
>>94785325It used to be the Vizier but then some simps thought they could get women to play Chess if they made the strongest piece a woman.
>>94796533>>94785325She's a fully grown loli with her adult lover (she was 8 he was 45 when they got together)
>>94785325I dunno, ask the general
>>94785882>>94786917Shut the fuck up and kill yourself ND
>>94796533That's because your brain has been rotted by feminism.
>>94785325Chess is literally a Waifu harem war, thus the best waifu gets the best moves. All the pieces with the exception of the king are girls. Pawns get promoted to queens, thus all pawns are girls. and pawns can get promoted to other pieces, making the other pieces female as well.
>>94785744>Queens, on the other hand, aren't subject to those restrictions, and can move and operate politically however they please, because they aren't subject to those same expectations. Their freedom of movement reflects this.ehhh?
>>94796548>king is important because he just is
>>94785744No it's not you fat, retarded pseud. It's just because a variant of Chess rules called "Mad Queen Chess" became the default over the years because it was more engaging. Originally the Queen was just a disposable duplicate of the King with an identical moveset whose only use was as a meatshield (fitting for a woman on the battlefield, desu)
>tfw you're such a weak player you'll lose to Martin on chess.comLike, that's the weakest bot they have? The one that's deliberately trying to los
>>94797046>he just is the one getting gods blessing and inherit the power on which the citizins agreed onThere is a reason queens are often seen as a walking uterus.
>>94796703That's because I remember the rules of the game.
>>94797472Both of those images have the King as equally incapable of defending himself as reflected in his moveset, yet you only find issue with the one where the male is the elder in the relationship. And now you try to cite rules despite knowing full well both pics reflect said rules.How very curious...Almost like you're a brainrotted culture warrior or something...
>>94795879I did look, it's either ugly art (worse than slop), ugly character, okay but not knightly at all, or male
>>94795996>He'll get rid of her for a younger model and to win the game.
>>94785325Pussy knows no bounds
>>94792234>english is the only one using "queen".French also use queen/lady, but use jester instead of bishop.
>>94792234It's called Queen in all the western speaking countries. Spain, Italy, Portugal and all Latin America. Not just in English. You must be from some desert country that seethes at strong mommies.
>>94796533the "queen" in the first pic is obviously some kind of outsider or construct bodyguard taking the form of an attractive woman to better blend into the royal court
>>94797929It's because young man/older woman femdom seems like a male fantasy, and thus is hot. See Chad fucking Stacy's mom? The boy is getting dominated in the relationship because he is young - the woman is training him until he can overtake her in strength someday and dominate her like a real man should. He has a ton of time to become stronger, better, and gather more wives in the future. His weakness in battle reflects this - he is inexperienced in the art of war as his education is not yet over and is probably being hounded by cowardly advisors who tell him not to take the heroic actions he needs to take to show off his skills.Old man/younger woman femdom feels like a female feminist power fantasy, where the "independent strong woman" kicks the "straight white rich man" in the butt every day. The man will always be inferior to the woman, and she is probably the last woman he will ever have if not for the fact that there is a war going on. He is a fading sun, but even that cannot excuse his utter weakness in battle. An old king should be a wise scholar, but also a powerful warrior. The fact that he feels the need to throw his wife in front of him to survive despite being a man who should be powerful by now indicates epsilon behavior. He is either being hounded by cowardly advisors (beta behavior for a man his age), or he is making his own decision to cower behind a wall.The other commenter isn't brainrotted, you are just a beta who as ingested too many microplastics.
I can't believe people really have big arguments which point to politics and philosophy about whether they prefer ugly bastard or straight shotaholy shit dude
>>94785325I would like to see her get pounded by a bishop or rook
>>94801169You are on a mongolian basket weaving forum my friend
>>94801235Playing games is banned on /tg/
>>94801235They dislike older men being with younger women because it's problematic, but also desire to see strong independent woman kick old powerful white man in the butt every day. This conundrum leads them to hating chess as a whole (which they already disliked due to always losing), and violently purge any memes that might spice up the chess thread.Jokes aside, I don't know. Jannies work in mysterious ways.
>>94785594maybe he becomes the girl when he reaches the end, have you ever considered that?
>>94801207my friend who only uses infinity chan always tells me this place is completely normgroided thoughwhich I'm inclined to believe but I guess there's still standout moments on occasion
>>94801383What, you've never seen people argue in the exact same manner on Reddit or Discord? No, 4chan has not gotten normiefied. We've become closer to Reddit or Discord, but those two aren't actually full of "normies" either - they're still a very far cry from the likes of people on Instagram. You don't see us talking about the latest supermodel and how the breakup between popstar A and popstar B is full of drama and spice, you see us talking about shit like convo above (which again, not too dissimilar to shit you see on Reddit, Youtube comments, or NHentai comments). Also, normie is relative. Someone talking about how they enjoy collecting Marvel funk pops and posting it onto Twitter might be normies to us, but as far as actual normies are concerned, there is no difference between them and your friend, whereas your friend sees no difference between the Marvel nerd and us.
Chess teaches young aristocrats about feudal hierarchy, court positions and warfare.>The king (you) is the most important piece, lose your king and you lose the game. While he can kill just as well as any piece in the game, a ruler is often be constrained by contracts, laws, etc; so despite making only one move per turn, his position impacts the entire board/kingdom, even a slight mistake will see him dethroned. Also, a king may never dishonor an enemy king by killing/assasinating him directly.>Rooks represent your standing army/border guard. Very sturdy and project hard territorial power, yet telegraph intentions easily, are slow to bring on to the board (3 turns minimum), and have obvious blind spots to being outmaneuvered.>Bishops represent the clergy. Can deploy faster than rooks (2 turns) to apply (religious) pressure. Lacks the brute force of a rook/army, prefers to "play the angles". Can only affect the enemy if they are of the same color/creed/religion.>Knights represent members of the lower martial aristocracy, e.g knights, local lords. Not quite powerful enough to be at your court, but often wield local military power. Fastest, and most flexible piece to deploy (1 turn). Power projection is local, rather than linear. Capable of overcoming both "control" pieces (rooks/bishops) by way of martial superiority (jumping=flanking).>Pawns are the peasantry. Limited in application, power projection and mobility. Can be used defensively and offensively to pressure, create borders and claim territory by "settling" new spaces (during early medieval periods, claims often involved sending peasants to illegally farm neighboring land, then "defend" the peasants when your neighbor got angry about it). Are common and disposable, yet losing all your peasants/manpower often leaves your country without a backbone. Can (and must) eventually be promoted to a higher class through merit, tenacity or luck.>>94801270Based.
>>94801901cont.>The Queen really represents the higher aristocracy, e.g. the most powerful nobles who are "married" to the kingdom, and thus their king. They are the "closest" piece to the king within his court, both in game and outside. They project both hard power like a rook (as they often have their own standing armies), and soft "court" power like the bishops/clergy (playing the angles). But they are more flexible than either, and can switch their approach depending on necessity. Additionally, their soft power cannot be avoided/negated (unlike the clergy, where only one color can be influenced). There is only one queen on the board, just like there is only one king, e.g, the aristocracy cannot be replaced. The notable exception of course, when a member of the peasantry showcase such valor/cunning/competency that they make it to the other side of the board and may be elevated to the status of noble.
>>94801712I don't use reddit or discord enough to see this shit happenI was especially wowed by the seriousness of it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2v66ASSDDEBecause they are a supergirl
>>94797929>>94801132You're reading too much into it. In a proper chess board setup white queen stands on white square (which second image gets right) and black queen stands on black square (which OP image gets wrong).
>>94785430Ministers were never the strongest piece.
>>94787116This is also false. They expanded the moveset because they wanted a powerful piece, end of story. People who try to read political meanings into chess are retarded.
>>94802254Same shit happens in Youtube comments. Sometimes, people get really invested in their arguments, regardless of how trite it is. Either that or they roleplay being serious in the case of a more comedic "argument" like this one. Frankly, it's hard to tell the difference at times, and I assume people rely on that very fact.>>94801197Have her get pounded by Sir Lancelot. Now we can roleplay Arthurian legend.

>>94801962Again, you're reading way too into something you don't actually understand for some feminist reinterpretation of Chess and history. See >>94797183
>>94801132>young man/older woman femdom seems like a male fantasy, and thus is hotThat's LITERALLY a female fantasy you've been mindfucked into thinking is a male fantasy by your lack of testosterone.

>>94801197https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YcRkzCvPHI
>>94803568Being pegged is literally the manliest thing you can do. It's a complete assertion of dominance where the woman performs a sexual act for no other reason than your gratification.
>>94803880please speak with your therapist about this idea
>>94803880So now we're back to >>94796703>your brain has been rotted by feminism
>>94796483>>94797183These anons were correct ages ago and were barely acknowledged. Sad state.For the record "scacchi alla rabiosa" is still such a funny name for the game.>>94801901>>94801962This is very elaborate, but ignores that rules and abstractions changed over time.>Queen as mentioned used to be Vizier - in Persian tradition especially the trope of the beleaguered Vizier who does all the work was very popular.>Rooks were originally Rukh - Chariots - which is why they steamroll shit in a straight line>Bishops have been extremely esoteric, originating as Elephants and at various times changing to camels, crocodiles, messengers, all sorts of things.Also, it's speculated that the Islamic preference for abstract designs contributed to names changing in Europe. Especially bishop and rook.Finally, as other anons have mentioned, Queen used to only move one space diagonally and bishop used to move two diagonally but could 'jump' over pieces like a knight.

>>94801962>>94801901You'd think that something generated by ChatGPT would at least look up the history of the game to be somewhat correct. Rules have changed since the 6th century, the game was made 'faster' to be more 'exciting' for players. Chess of today is 4th edition chess, after the Ferz unit movement buff and renamed it to Queen.
>>94806682>>Can't hold himself in a fight, let alone defend his woman like a manHe says, while defending and glorifying the act of adult women grooming and raping underage boys. And while talking Chess rules to boot.
