Fun with imbalances

Which side would you rather play in these positions?  (Stockfish says they're all roughly equal, but not automatically drawn.)

 

Suggest some of your own crazy imbalances!

I'd choose 8 queens over just about anything xD

Actually I let two lvl 10 computers play it out and the queens got shredded.

How'd you let two computers play each other? I know Game Analysis lets you set it up, but I thought you could only finish it yourself.

I guess you'd have to either be a computer or a total Knight virtuoso to play that out to a win happy.png it must also matter a lot where the pieces start

I did it on mobile, in the “computer” tab.

I put the queens on the back row and the Knights on their first two rows. I guess that means it was actually 7 queens vs 15 Knights. I also gave the Queens the first move.

That was a disappointment. Try this! Actually, it's more of a puzzle, but WHATEVER!
