BROKEN BRILLIANT MOVES

Out of every single game I’ve played, I’ve never gotten a brilliant move, so I looked up how to get them. My most recent game, I sacrificed my king and it said I got a blunder instead of a brilliant. Has this been happening to anyone else?

You can't sacrifice your king.

That said, a move that sacrifices material mut also be considered good or best. There are some other rules around it too and rating of the player cones into play.

This is not how chess works, the kings are the pieces to stay on the board, if it's a blunder then it doesn't lead to something where checkmate is closer or completely ruin the position of your opponent.

Plenty of posts where people are serious so it's best to go with that and answer the question. grin.png
