Also feel free to use the engine for this because I've tried this with the engine multiple times and don't see it
Most Mind-Boggling Brilliant Move I've seen

Minor piece (usually a knight but sometimes also the bishop) sacrifice in d5 is a standard idea that black has to watch out for in the e6 Sicilians. It usually cannot be calculated to the end but white can have lot of compensation if black cannot develop naturally.
Here it apparently is very strong. For example

wow crazy brilliant and explanation
if someone plays this on chess.com, they are either a master or a cheater

Moves like this are why "!!!" should exist. A move that would genuinely be considered brilliant in a formal game should receive "!!!" on Chess.com so they don't get lumped in with obvious sacrifices.

oh my goodness this is just an amazing reply. Yeah this move is something I would never see in the history of my life lol

So this is what I believe. For the compensation of the bishop:
- white has a very strong knight on c6.
- black's king is very open and unsafe
- white has great piece activity, while black's pieces are inactive and very weak.
- awful pawn structure for black (especially the two isolated pawns that white can target and black will struggle to defend)
- black has many weaknesses in his position
- white has a large space advantage
- The white rook on e1 is very strong and is eyeing down the entire e1 file.
- white has an extremely strong pawn on d5 and controls vital squares
There's probably a lot more, but I think I understand it and it would definitely require unhuman calculation lol
Hi. I have stumbled upon this chess move, which happens to be the top engine move. For the life of me I do not understand the idea behind this move, what it achieves, and what you gain from it.
Seriously. I don't understand this at all, and I would appreciate an explanation. Could you guys figure it out???
