Sort:

yes i agree but... if the king is not safe the queen could increase complictaions by keeping so many checks

chessisNOTez884

it is zen we can grab pawns or atleast make a draw by keeping multiple checks but two rooks cant beat as they cant keep too many checks

chessisNOTez884

it is in chesskid FMM named funmastermike says that queen is better if the king does not have safety he also showed some practical examples

chessisNOTez884

hey zen position is more important than material

also queens has more power than rooks

i am just it depends upon position

sometimes rooks are better but... sometimes queen is better

chessisNOTez884

i am just saying

jo1807

It definitely depends on the position. In general, the rooks are better when there are open files and both kings are quite safe. The queen becomes better when there are pawn weaknesses on both sides of the board and when the kings are not safe.

 

chessisNOTez884

yes thats right

jo1807

Usually, the two rooks are better when there is a closed position, and the rooks control all the open files. The two rooks can attack targets twice with a battery, but the queen can defend only once.

In same cases rooks are better but in same cases quenn/quenns are better here the rooks are better:

Here are quenns better:

agreed here in second position as you can see queens can move diagnolly but.. rooks cant

so queens took this as an adantage and won the game!!!!!

chessisNOTez884

zen i am supporting for both the pieces

just the position matters

i am not claming my win just saying that position is the key to know which is better

in first position as the king does not have safety queen is better

but... rooks are better if the king has safety

why dont you understand

stop telling about claim

here claim or material is not important position is important

chessisNOTez884

yes i am the one i just wanted to others opinion and their reasons as well 

so that i thought of making this forum

chessisNOTez884

i just wanted to know

chessisNOTez884

yes i know but thats not correct refer to all the videos and positions

chessisNOTez884

do you have a account in chesskid

chessisNOTez884

if so, then see the video

you will get to know

position is the key to know whether which piece is dominating

for suppose there is a knight on a outpost and there is a black rook just sitting there

which would be better is it the knight or the rook

chessisNOTez884

but you would say that rook is better because it has more material

the problem about you in chess is that you simply think about the material not the position

i did not tease you just saying to you that material is not important

position is important

at the same way queen can better at some positions and rooks are better at some positions
