QUALIFIERS OF THE KOTH WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP: @RAPHAEL1127 @theeldest1 @TokudaShigeoJr @xskad @Chessteam2532 @MistakeEraser @TheRealCheese27 @Loran-29 @SuperCourgette @jackityjackjack @reznor96 @Chris_E_S3 @Steeeel @spins5mE @R00KB4 @schizzarotto

Hi friends!😉😋Today I'm going to introduce you to the rules and format of KOTH World Championship Edition 2! 😎🤩 - KOTH World Championship Edition 2 - The Format: In October 2023, a series of 20 KOTH arenas of one hour each will start. The top 3 from each arena will qualify for the final round of the tournament! 💪😁There are a total of 64 spots up for grabs. But if you've been paying attention, there are only 20 arenas, so 60 qualifiers. That's why I'm going to give out 4 honorary qualifying spots. These arenas will be spread over several days, with at least several arenas per day at different times. - The Final Stages: With all the qualifiers, I will conduct a draw to determine the upcoming posters. We will have 32 matches.I would give each player a date before which they must face their opponent in a 3 minute KOTH duel. The first player with 2 wins will qualify. If in one of your final phase games, you draw, this game will not be counted. The winner of each duel will give me the result.💪👍 And so on until the final. The final will be played to the first to 3 wins. I will try to find a streamer who can broadcast this final on Twitch.🤩😎 - The Rules: There will obviously be rules to follow, here they are: First of all, in the arenas, neither cheating, no insults, no malicious players will be accepted. All these bad behaviors will be punished by a disqualification.😥😣. For the finals, I will give you a deadline as you have seen previously on this forum. It will usually be 5 days maximum. I will give you the match information and the nickname of your opponent. You will have to make contact quickly and decide on a time for your confrontation. If this duel cannot be done due to the fault of one of the candidates, either the match will have to be redone or this candidate will be eliminated and replaced. In the 1st edition, very few games were played due to players not checking their messages or not doing anything.So I hope the 2nd Edition will have a lot more players, and players who are respectful towards their opponents! I will try to attend as many duels as possible.👍 - The Awards: Here are the awards you can win in the KOTH World Championship Edition 2!🤩Only the 2 finalists will be rewarded so you'll have to play well! Here you go: The winner will get: -1 or more month of premium membership! - A place in the private club "The Legends of The KOTH Team"! The club where all those who have marked our club are part of! The losing finalist: - Also a spot on "Legends of the KOTH Team"! This one will be given by a donner!👍Thanks to him! So, winning is important!

Hello guys! When I prepare some openings and strategy for my students almost everyone tell me: "I need to attack!". Children love tactics, very fast attack and glorious victory. Yes, that is true. Almost everyone enojoy quick victory with some combinations like in Shirov's or Tal's games. Because of that many students think that when you attack you have to go forward. When I create some examples they always looking for such a moves, when they go forward - for example go from rank number 4 to rank number 6 when they play as white. Be careful. When you attack sometimes you have to prepare counterplay and go backward and then push. Have a look! We have much more examples linked to this idea. I prepare three and I hope you now understand, that sometimes if you want to go forward you have to first go back!

My friend @erle19 has an idea "Hi everyone! I hope you're all fine today!My friend @David-Vaas had a brilliant idea! Here is what he thought: Hi guys! I thought about it and got an idea: We could create an arena with a lot of clubs and then play against each other! The first 20 clubs then advance to the next arena and so on until the winning clubs play each other for first place! I would imagine that 20 clubs would advance first and then 10 clubs and so on (we'll discuss that together later happy.png ! For me it's a kind of league! We could do that every six months! I could do it with my club create it if you don't mind! If you like this idea, please thumbs up! Please try to recommend this idea if you like it! If a club wants to participate, please write it in! Thank you for reading!He created it already but it hasn't started yet! So, I thought, why don't ask my friends "Les Amigos De Bruxelles" if they want to join too?Would be very nice. if you could tell me your opinion!" https://www.chess.com/play/arena/2891545

Here I put you all the variants of ChessRule of variants of Chess -Blitz for four Four-player blitz is a variant of chess with four players and two chess boards. You team up with another player, and one can reposition the pieces that the other has captured. -Crazyhouse Crazyhouse is a variant with almost the same rules as standard chess, but you can reposition the parts you have captured. -3 CHECK The winner is the first to defeat the king three times. Otherwise, the rules are standard, and you can always win per mat. -King of the hill - KOTH The first to place his king on one of the four central squares wins. Otherwise, the rules are standard, and you can always win per mat. -Chess 960 960 is a variant invented by Bobby Fischer. The rules of the game are the same as those of traditional chess, but to avoid the theoretical preparation of the opening, the pieces are randomly changed places on the first row. Look at this article to learn more. -Fog of War (fr. "Fog of war") In this variant, the squares to which you rooms cannot move are covered by 'fog' (fog). You will not know where the opponent coins are unless they can be attacked by your own pieces. -Chaturanga An ancient form of chess without the rock and with different movements for the lady and the madman. -Blindfold chess (Blindfolded chess) Chess played blindfolded! You can only see the boxes, and the parts are invisible. Sideways Pawns ("Pawns next door") Like standard chess, but pawns can also move one square to the right or left. -Torpedo The pieces can move one or two squares throughout the game (not only on their first shot). -No castling (fr. "No rock") Standard chess but rocking is prohibited. -Giveaway chess ("Gift failures") Be the first to lose all your coins and you win! -Horde The starting position is normal for blacks, but whites have an army of 36 pieces. -Capture anything chess ("Capture everything") You can capture your own coins in order to take advantage or to escape to a lost position. -Atomic chess ("Atomic chess) The captured pieces explode! We're sorry! Destroy the adversary king in an explosion in order to win.

Mardi 11/7/2023 – Tuesday 7/11/2023 La ligne principale est basée sur le fait que si la Te1 bouge sur la 1ère rangée, les Noirs gagnent la Dame blanche. Inoubliable ! The main line is base upon the fact that should the Re1 moves on the 1st rank, then Black is winning the White Queen. Unforgettable ! Solution complète : 1.../Re1+ ! – 2.Rxe1/Dxd4 (0-1) – 2.Rf1/Rxf1+ 3.Rxf1/Dxd4 (0-1) – 2.Fg1/Rxg1+ et ici : – 2a : 3.Rxg1/Cxf3+ ! 4.Rxf3/Dxg2 mat – 2b : 3.Rxg1/Dxd4 (0-1) English version : 1.../Re1+ ! – 2.Rxe1/Qxd4 (0-1) – 2.Rf1/Rxf1+ 3.Rxf1/Qxd4 (0-1) – 2.Bg1/Rxg1+ et ici : – 2a : 3.Rxg1/Nxf3+ ! 4.Kxf3/Qxg2 mat – 2b : 3.Rxg1/Qxd4 (0-1)
