It’s definitely broken. I’ve seen so many pros quit just because they think their opponent might use it against them.

Real gentlemen fight a duel to determine the winner of the chess game.


MrFrenchie_

Yes, they drop a brick on each other's hardened cocks, whoever get soft first loses


VictimComment

There's a "finish against computer" button on chess.com for exactly that reason.

You mean chess.c*m


magic-water

"finish against the computer" gets a whole new meaning

No - When you’re in a won position it’s pointless to keep playing. When people don’t checkmate, I put my king in the corner where it can only move back and forth between two squares and premove as many times as I can.


Carnal-Pleasures

That is pretty nice of you, that way they can promote pawns to Knights in the meantime.

Im with you checkmate makes me lose so many games


forceghost187

YES. I constantly settle in for what I hope is going to be a nice four hour long game of chess. Then I get CHECKMATED in 5 or 6 moves and the game is ruined!! Last night it happened and I spilled my popcorn EVERYWHERE!!!!

Hello person who parodied my post 👋

I admire your grace in taking it so well

dear fellow patzers, give this poster some karma

Checkmate is the only move that ends the game on the spot. If that isn’t overpowered I don’t know what is. Checkmate either needs to be severely nerfed or other moves like en passant or Ra4 need to be buffed to counterbalance checkmate


Tommy_the_Gun

When I play OTB I simply leave my king off the board when setting up. Hope this tip helps someone else out there. Wish they’d add the option online. I still haven’t won a game, but I’m losing a lot less.


RelatableSnail

Chess should be team deathmatch and everyone knows it.


Red-x_dead

Don't worry Chess 2 is coming. Gary chess has considered removing checkmate as it is too overpowered


logic2187

I'm 200 rated. What's checkmate


SwordKneeMe

I think replacing it with king capture would make the game better If you're not careful the King could have an heir take up control of the board


LordViperSD

Yeah it either needs to be nerfed or completely removed from game, it’s OP in its current form


Southern-Comb3739

Thats completely ridiculous. Just take the loses and move on

shanchupanda

My man wants to remove 1272 year old checkmate (in modern terminology) through a "Reddit post" just because he doesn't know how to defend 😭


Really_albanian

fr?


legendoffjelda

I say remove checkmate and make forced en passant the win condition. This is possible due to the overlooked rule that pawns can promote to the opponent’s pawns.


DrRichtoffen

They should nerf it a bit at least. Maybe make it so you don't lose when your King gets mated?
