    A good rule of thumb for mates, a checkmate is a move where the next move you could take the king by force, all the duck changes are mates where the duck can block the mate for the next move. So all unblockable mates are indeed wins. the only mates that are not wins are mates that can be blocked by the duck.

    And counter checkmate or check doesn’t work in any of those cases either, because ofc you take the king first. So all wins are like this, a mate that isnt duckable, meaning all double check mates are wins, but also mates where the duck is pinned to the opponents king where it would be checkmate in a normal game with no duck there, the last way to mate is knight mates, pawn mates or any contact mate, which is ofc by definition unduckable mates. one more detail is of that the opponent can duck block for squares where the king is not currently receding as well, so with a non double check, the squares the kings can move to, wether in check doing so or not must also not be blockable by the duck in the sense of the control of that square, or the king can move into check on the square and block with the duck, meaning there are exceptions to the rules i outlined, double checks can also be dodged, meaning you have to meet one of the conditions that are non-duckablility for all squares the king can legally move to before it is a forced win

      @𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐬𝐀𝐩𝐩+𝟭𝟴𝟭𝟳𝟯𝟬𝟵𝟰𝟳𝟱𝟰 I can really show you something. But you are a smart GM and should be able to read between the tea leaves. I would be too trusting of a certain "friend". Dot i's and cross t's. Did you really not know Kasparov and Nigel were disqualified from the WC93? You had to know that. Oh Garry didn't mention why? And the duck is code. JFYI

    hikaru coulda trapped the bishop at 14:06 by placing the duck on f4

      but that pawn is free and it's not trapping the bishop, it's essentially protected only by a knight, because the rook can be blocked by a duck after capturing the pawn

      He could take them block the rook

      Thought so too but then white can eat pawn with knight and trade pieces and block rook on A-file with duck, no?

    Can someone tell me how much time passed when he first started learning the rules in duck chess in this video to when he versed Anna Cramling in a match in a previous video, he seemed pretty converse in the game by then? It would be great for context. Thank you.

    i feel like trading a bishop for a knight is actually a good thing in this variant

    I can definitely say that Hikaru doesn't understand a duck of this game
