How can I win the horde game as white?
Sort:
iirc, there is a very specific line white has to play. Idk what it is, though.

Hmmm... I understand.
I'm probably wrong, though.
However, it's incredibly difficult for low rated players (like me) to win as white.

Okay
I can win as white and I don't play the best line/lines. I do find playing black easier though.

Hi everyone, I've played a lot of horde chess games. Every game had the result that black won! The side can easily win by sacrifice rooks, bishops and knights so that the queen kill the back rank. Have you ever won by checkmate or got stalemate, as white??
It's possible to win as white for sure. Ik at the highest levels Black usually wins unless both sides know opening theory, but I've had good results with both white and black. As white, you need to prevent Black from making trades on the a-and-h files. Try to prevent Black from sacrificing a knight or bishop for two pawns on the a-file as much as possible. When you have a choice to capture one way or another, generally choose to capture toward the flanks.

Ok, thanks!
