If pieces rather than piece it has to be the bishop - who ever heard of the knights pair.

 

Bishop pairs because a bishop alone cant track all colors, one bishop per color so it's a weakness. Knights don't have this problem.

The knight because you can ride it home after the game.

Truly...the King. Nothing beats a pawn ending with just the kings left to battle.

I ask a new group of juniors whether they prefer Knights or Bishops. This splits them into roughly two groups. I then ask them why they have this preference. After 5 minutes discussion they are ready for some chess. The stronger ones mention the number of mobile pawns as the main factor affecting these pieces.
