Which do you think, a bishop or a knight. I know they both have strengths and weaknesses. But which one do you think is better in average?

I like bishops!Laughing

Drop your bias for the Bishop, it'll hamper your judgement. It depends entirely on the position.

The difference is trivial unless you are a high skilled player.

if in the initial position you were allowed four bishops (on b1,c1,f1,g1 / b8,c3,f8,g8) or four knights (same as above) and you were to face a player with normal chess configuration, which would you take?
