  • @IsakMH
    @IsakMH Год назад +58

    It depends largely on the situation. In the early game, knights tend to be better because they can easily cause a lot of threats. During the late game, bishops are usually better because the board is more open giving the Bishops more room to move around.

    Knight is the only piece in game whose check can't be blocked, you need to either take the knight somehow or run away.
    Its ability is one of it's kind . Not to mention it can hover over the board (not giving a damn to anyone who stands in its way) and pin multiple pieces at once. Theoretically speaking it can threaten 8 pieces at once. Playing it right and it can be a Knight-mare to your opponent.

    When I was a beginner I preferred bishop. But as I got better I prefer the knight all day. The knight can terrorize your opponent even if you’re losing. I’ve won games that I was down 2-3 pieces but my knight brought me back. It’s a lot easier for your opponent to defend against a bishop.

    thats the impression i got after playing 3-5 games as a starting person, with the most unique mechanics (imo specially on how it moves) i call it the most trickiest piece

    Da roooooooooook is my favorite because it can stop a king from travelling into other ranks and slow trap the king .

    Nothing will ruin your day more than a missed knight fork

    Bishop can move only on his colour boxes but knight can change his movements and paths in every move

    I think Horses are much more useful in the earlygame and the midgame. But in the endgame, bishops are more useful

    You can check the king while attacking other pieces at the same time
