5-check, Takeover, Sideways

Promotion

King on the 12th rank

Note

Notes: Red is a pawn pusher which will place pawns. Capture 1 of Red's pawns then put your pawns in the 'Yellow Pond' which you can capture free sergeants. Use the OP pawns to checkmate your opponent. Use the promotion to King as a strategic check. I was originally gonna add KOTH but that would make this too easy and unfair. Also, said that most losses were due to time losses so I changed it from 3/4|0 to 3/4|1. I managed to get the 3/4|0 time control back!!!!!!!

According to @bsrti, the CGA bot is under maintenance.

Status: Declined

Reason: An interesting concept, but it seems too linear and boring to be a good WoF (games may last way too long), while it is too luck-based to be an NCV (because of how red plays the game).

I like the variant, but does it need to be called that?

Nope. Usually the CGA team will request a rename if the position is accepted.

Best you don't say "I knew it"; the CGAs have accepted WoFs that look autodeclinable. I do think that this concept is interesting but that just adding KOTH won't be the only thing that needs to be done.
