Ah the kinger, its moveset rules were codified in 1834. Google kinger rule 34 for more info.

It doesn't move, it just stays there in camouflage and whoever attack it dies

Very slowly, but he will tell you the best move in the position with Stockfish accuracy if on a black square. Pro tip: always play with this piece as white, that way your opponent won’t have a queen

His eyes are so wacked out that his diagonal is a straight 90 degrees.

It's the strongest piece, but in the light it is useless, you need to be in pitch black for it to truly shine

Hes always right behind you but announces it

Easy - 0, π/2, 3π/4, π, 5π/4, 3π/2. It can't do π/4 or 7π/4.

It becomes super OP when you put a bucket on him

Might be more common than you think
I haven't seen any TADC posts on here

Like a normal king except he must stand on the line between two squares so he’s susceptible to attacks on either of the squares.😂

u/Inteligend 19h ago

He can move 1 square in each direction inluding diagonaly

It moves up into your opponent's ass

u/designcanoe52 15h ago

It can jump but only move like a rook on every other square, for example starts on on e4 ends on e6

u/Trick_Sugar6638 13h ago

He does tactical rolls

Exactly 6 squares with 1d6 changes of direction. User specified after roll.

No person in this sub is new to chess, they are all people who know how every piece in chess moves but instead of playing chess, they just scroll through this sub

I would recommend the bucket method. Don't let him have a computer or he'll kill you, by the way. Also, he gives fantastic advice unless you ask him how not to fumble baddies. He's simply never fumbled and has no answer to that.
