KOTH Piece Importance

Pawns are arguably the most important piece in koth, because they can outnumber many pieces and control the center. I'll  start by providing a position: One where white has no minor pieces and black no  pawns.

There are some mistakes on both sides, but clearly the pawns over-power most pieces.

Here is a list of the importance of pieces in KOTH, King not included

1. Pawns, which can work together and take down any piece

2. Knights, they can control the center easily and quickly

2. Queen, can cover a lot of squares

4. Rook, can trap a king and control a whole file with ease in the endgame

5. Bishop, can be helpful but cannot work together

This position shows how to "trap" a king from the center. 

This shows how you can win games by using Rooks.

Moving on to the knights, all you have to do is just advance them toward the center. Enough said.

The bishops can be used as backup defenders and discovered attackers
