the dummy gets captured just by moving

Movement: Moves exactly like a Knight.

Special Rule: As soon as you play it, it jumps to the target square, but instantly regrets its life choices and returns to its original square before your turn ends. If there was an opponent's piece on the target square, it doesn't capture it; it just high-fives it and jumps back.

Why it's the most useless piece ever:

It literally forces you to waste a tempo for absolutely nothing. It controls zero new squares, develops no threats, and just sits there burning your clock and your turns. It's the ultimate tactical vacuum.

Air: it's 147-1470 points, can't move, and gets deleted when a piece moves to that square. White gets whitesquared air and black gets blacksquared air.

A queen that can only capture protected pieces

Avatar of Pusenerbest

a knight that can’t jump over other pieces in any way, and if it moves you have to move it the next turn or else it would explode and all the pieces (of the same color as that special knight) surrounding (right beside it) that knight will die, and if it isn’t moved by move 10 it also explodes, and if the opponent captures that knight it also explodes still only effecting you’re pieces, and if its been moved five times it also explodes…

yeah

A void pawn-pawn that makes an void under itself when touched, it deletes itself
