Chess sucks.

That was before Aryans ruined everything and they were set back 1000 years

>>212016187 (OP)
Thanks saars I really like chessecakes

>>212019459
No, but they added the concept of checkmate

>>212016187 (OP)
No

>>212016187 (OP)
Chess is stupid anyways. There are a lot of rules that make no sense. For example, en passant is just completely random. Also, trapping the opponent's king such that it cannot make any more moves results in a draw??? Like wtf, that should mean you win.
Gay ass game.

>>212016187 (OP)
The pieces were probably lumps of cow dung

>>212023308
both of these rules are western inventions.
In chaturanga, Indian chess, your bishop and rook could only move 4 squares too. And pawns cant move 2 squares either.

>>212023584
Alright, fair nuff. Eurocucks ruined the game I guess.

>>212019459
high caste indians aka aryans from north iran, yes

>>212023308
It's a draw because the king is not under attack from any of the opponent's pieces but can't move to any other space because he'd be u der attack if he moved to them. Hope that clears it up. Yes I suppose it sucks but it's just another aspect of the game, you gotta be careful with how you move your pieces in the endgame so your opponent doesn't force a draw when he's losing

>>212016187 (OP)
never bothered learning how to play

>>212024140
Yeah no shit, and I'm saying that's a stupid concept. If I trap the opponent's king on the battlefield but nobody is currently stabbing him, that's still a win.

>>212016187 (OP)
Go back.

>>212016187 (OP)
I suck at it and lost to my 10 year old brother when I was 19. Never touched it since

>>212024383
Thanks for the blogpost. Nobody asked tho

>>212016187 (OP)
Wait, wasn't it Iran?

>>212024833
Chess was introduced to the West via Iran but it came from Indian courts originally

Fuck India, Edi Rama is better

The chess that everyone plays was invented in like, spain or italy though. Indian chess sucked. The queen only moved one square diagonally, and the bishops moved by jumping exactly two squares diagonally. Because of how weak the pieces were, it was almost impossible to checkmate your opponent, so the most common winning condition was capturing all of your opponent's pieces.

git gud
[spoiler] says the dumbass who hasn't even learned the rules of said game

>>212016187 (OP)
This is original Indian chess. What we play now was first modified by Persians and then by Europeans.

Go or chess?

>>212023308
>en passant is just completely random
No
Pawns could previously only move one square. This made openers needlessly slow, so the ability to move two squares was added to speed things up. En Passant exists so that moving twice doesn't let you avoid vulnerable positions, since the double move was only intended to speed things up and not protect pawns.
it might be a stupid rule, but it isn't random

>All perceptible matter comes from a primary substance, or tenuity beyond conception, filling all space, the Akasha or aluminiferous ether, which is acted upon by the life-giving Prana or creative force, calling into existence, in neverending cycles, all things and phenomena.

Hindu India is the birthplace of civilization science and math. This is indisputable.
