So i was lurking around some of my games and i found this one that i played when i was a few days into chess. Apparently it has a brilliant moves, which appart from not making sense at all, it's not even the best move. Look.

It says the best move is Bxd5, but Ke8 is brilliant??

But i still don't get why it shows a better move even tho Ke1 is "brilliant"
I would get that at a lower depth that move could be brilliant and then at a higher depth the engine would find a better move but this i don't understand

The Game Review brilliant move is any move that sacrifices material and is good, excellent, or best; i.e. they don't have to be best. My guess is that since the rook is technically hanging, that counts as sacrificing material?
