How to play without Queen?
Sort:
Is it possible to win without Queen? Whenever I lose it i have major issues to play...basicaly i give up. is tgere a strategy?
You can certainly win without the queen depending on your opponent's level of skill, but it's a pretty huge setback. Honestly, the best approach is just to focus on not blundering it away in the first place. Whether you're playing on in spite of a lost queen or trying to prevent losing it, I notice you play a lot of blitz games. I'd recommend playing some games with longer time controls so you can focus on improving whole-board awareness.

(Just gonna slip this in Bois!) Well, there is room for improvement if ye get used to it. Besides, if you plan to join classical tourneys (The blitz ones is an another story) The time limit will be 40 mins to 2 hours w/ increment. So, if ye get used to it, you'll be fine :-)

you can certainly win without the queen. do some research and do some of the lessons on here. there's a 7 day free trial. do it and take as many lessons as you can.

If I play a handicap game a queen down at the start versus a weaker opponent, is there a best strategy? Keep the game closed perhaps?
But i lost my queen many times, so how can i do that?

It's the same strategy as winning a drawn game. Generate complexity which you understand and your opponent doesn't and wait for the blunder.
if you have 2 rooks double them, which makes them less likely to fall victim to queen forks.
i have won without a queen a couple times. In one of the games I doubled my rooks to make them immune to queen forks.
Well, it's quite simple, really. First, you need to locate a time machine and travel back to the 1700s when the game of chess was still in its infancy. Then, convince the creators of chess to exclude the Queen from the game entirely. Finally, return to the present day and gather a group of confused chess enthusiasts who will wonder why the most powerful piece on the board suddenly vanished. And voila! You're playing chess without a Queen, but you might also end up with a bunch of bewildered players staring at an incomplete board. Good luck with that!

who death scrolled through the forums so much they reactivating posts from 2017 made by an account that played its last game in 2019?
Or you could just not resign and continue playing
Like I won someone before without a queen
Yes. Make better moves than your opponent and you can win without a queen.

As a chess coach I make my students play without a queen every other week. This helps them to understand the power and scope of the minor and major pieces, plus the importance of position. I don't know if you can set up a non rated practice game with both players competing without their Queens but it's worth a shot.
