Pawns are not always queens, but it's wonderful in the endgame when they promote.

If fairy pieces do count, Dragon Bishop is my favorite.

If they don't, I like the Light-Squared Bishop.

Hi @ToastBread_1, why exactly the Light Squared Bishop?

I would assume its to do with their preferred openings

In the dragon Scicilian the fianchettoed bishop is light? I think it’s dark. Oh yeah it’s dark. What is he talking about?

Maybe he likes the Queen's Indian Defense, or Queen's Gambit, etc.

Who said I like the Sicilian? I hate it.

It really depends on the position tbh, but the piece combo that gives me chessgasm is prolly a well coordinated bishop pair, so I'd go with bishops

#18 yeah, but we didn't say that two pieces. Only one. And a single bishop isn't that strong.
