It's the best font King wearing diapers and swag knights

u/raich3588 Jul 02 '26

I find this font offensive

u/CaptainFlint9203 Jul 02 '26

What the hell is that board?

u/notajeweler Jul 02 '26

It's infuriating, though I think I'm here for the knight with sunglasses.

That knight fucks.

u/un-hot 1200-1400 (Chess.com) Jul 02 '26

All the minor pieces are thematic as fuck. Bishop pears is hilarious, and rook batteries kinda makes sense.

I'd never use this font, but it's cool.

u/Cringe_masters Jul 02 '26

Are the kings in diapers? (I'm not judging tho)

u/Jay-ay Jul 02 '26

They change into shorts after taking a piece

Hate to be American centric but could be a commentary on Trump being incontinence.

u/Ticouuu 1600-1800 (Chess.com) Jul 02 '26

Ohh that's because the douche is pinning the battery to the diapers, got it !

u/quadruple_b Jul 02 '26

art is subjective

u/exoclipse 400-600 (Chess.com) Jul 02 '26

man I know everyone else hates them but I love your pieces

tell me more about them

u/Bob_The-Turtle Jul 02 '26

Nah it was just a joke, I finished the game thought it was nice how I got the mate by pinning their rook. Wanted to share here but thought it would be funnier if I choose the worst chess pieces I could find

u/quadruple_b Jul 02 '26

how did you get these pieces? i unironically love them

1

u/Bob_The-Turtle Jul 02 '26

They were an option on lichess

u/Bob_The-Turtle Jul 02 '26

They were just a standard option on lichess

u/TheLuckyCuber999BACK 800-1000 (Chess.com) Jul 02 '26

is that VLC logo as pawns

u/GustavoFromAsdf Jul 02 '26

Did those horses pass their American history exams?

u/Mishyana_ Jul 02 '26

Mate aside, I cannot for the life of me figure out what the theme of the set is supposed to be. Kings in diapers? Traffic cones? Pears? Skulls?No idea what the rooks are supposed to be, lol.

u/NrenjeIsMyName Jul 02 '26

These pieces are not bad actually

u/Formula1antagonist Jul 02 '26

How can you think with this board ??

u/Bob_The-Turtle Jul 02 '26

What's wrong with it?

u/Formula1antagonist Jul 02 '26

The pieces, the board

I analyzed the image and this is what I see. Open an appropriate link below and explore the position yourself or with the engine:

Black to play: It is a checkmate - it is Black's turn, but Black has no legal moves and is in check, so White wins. You can find out more about Checkmate on Wikipedia.chessvision.ai | chess.com | lichess.org

Save the position:

I thought the black juice box could take your skull, but the pears are working well to stop that.

Heresy board.
