Muay Thai based Chess Defence

In Muay Thai there are six groups of Defence I tried to create some analogy with chess.

1.Blocking – Defender blocks to stop an attack in its path so preventing it reaching its target.

2.Redirection – defender's soft parries to change the direction of a strike so that it misses the target

3.Avoidance – moving a piece part out of the way or range of a strike so the defender remains in range for a counter-strike.

4.Evasion – moving the piece out of the way or range of a strike so the defender has to move close again to counter-attack,

5.Disruption – Pre-empting an attack

6.Anticipation – Defender catching a strike

( may be you could come up with some examples :))

I think if a chess player has these six tactics in mind while defending a postion or piece it would do him a world of good.

Thanks Muay Thai for your wisdom.


Ifyou could add some examples for these six groups of defence it would be helpfull.
