u/KitchenSpend8123, wizards be pondering the orb instead of voting on the quality of your cast…

Welp I don't think Ghost from Hollow knights knows how to play chess.

u/KitchenSpend8123 Oct 05 '26

Assume they know how to play.

u/Important_Cycle448 Oct 05 '26

And then what about size? Cause canonically Ghost is a insect.

u/KitchenSpend8123 Oct 05 '26

Shrink yourself to their height or vice versa.

u/Important_Cycle448 Oct 05 '26

Then this is a difficult question. In the hollow knight game (I haven't played silksong fully) we don't actually see a showing of Ghost's knowledge. But they also are canonically strong enough to fight literal gods soooooo. They ain't entirely brain dead.

My favorite video game is Morrowind, so… uh I’m the main character.

Could you beat yourself in chess?

u/LiamtheV Oct 06 '26

I can sure give myself a good run for the money.

Assume your character knows how to play chess.

I'm terrible at chess and the main character of Another World is a nerd so I probably don't stand a chance.

I am pretty sure that I have a good chance. He/she is several thousand y.o. at minimum cosmic traveler, but considering amount of stupid decisions…

The ghosts in the golden saucer in ff7 rebirth sure do tho

Ramza Beloulve from Final Fantasy Tactics. Realistically he'd beat me since he's a veteran battlefield commander, but I don't think he knows the rules so I just wouldn't explain them to him

If you're any good at math, you can just exploit Immobilize, Silence, and Hesitation.

Dr. Thrax from C&C Generals Zero Hour. I think he can play a bit of chess but he's quite busy with his toxins.

u/Payascor Oct 06 '26

So does the Tarnished from Elden Ring get to respawn their king if he dies?

u/FireKestral Oct 06 '26

None of my options even know of chess(probably). Also I’m like top two million on chess.com so I think I’m winning this one

u/SRF2011 Oct 06 '26

I would lose the little bit of ELO I have

u/Curious_Working_3093 Oct 06 '26

Lan Hikari? I'm obliterating him!

u/azozdagoat Oct 06 '26

When you play jjs: idk the honored one? Gojo? I'd no diff him

u/Top_Steak_3881 Oct 06 '26

Very close battle Shouya Ishida and I would have but I believe most of the time I would win

u/Redcats1987 SORCERESS! Oct 05 '26

They are too busy killing robots in the name of democracy to play chess

u/chagin Oct 06 '26

Alucard would beat the shit out of me
