Rook takes g4 is considered a brilliant move, this is one I got fairly recently but I don't know how to attach the game so these screenshots should be good enough, I think the idea is that if bishop takes rook, the queen takes the pawn on f3 and if the bishop takes the other rook its forced checkmate and it's very difficult to avoid, i'm not sure exactly what makes this brilliant and not just best move but yeah this is my contribution

exactly my profile in one of those pictures 😅😅

A brilliant move is a move hard to see for your elo, which usually effects the game in a dramatic way, even if said move appears subtle on the outside.

A brilliant move is when you sacrifice one or multiple pieces to mate opponent's king, draw the game or win back more materials. But for some reason, some move isn't sacrifice can also be considered as a brilliant move.

My this game I was sacrifice my queen 4 times but somehow my rooks move isn't a sacrifice but still considered as a brilliant move.

I had a it a few times, but I am baffled how exactly you get it

I just got one yesterday with 95 accuracy. Basically it’s just find a reasonable and good sacrifice or a game-changer move

a hard move to find?

Avatar of xiangguest

that is my guess

Avatar of ImAPlayer_abc

probably

It's not just about sacrificing for material or a win
Avatar of Gottfried94

Brilliant move is only about sacrifice. You have sacrifice something physically more valuable for something less of a value and evaluation bar has to shift in your favour

https://www.chess.com/de/analysis/game/live/109085127284?move=25&tab=review&classification=brilliant&autorun=trueThis is a brilliant move but not sure why as it seems sort of basic. A discovered attack. 
Sometimes it's brilliant, some other times it's not. I made similar moves some tmie back that didn't turn out to be "brilliant".
