These horde videos really show why a rook and a pawn is not good compensation for 2 minor pieces, and a queen may not be for 3. Having fewer assets to trade can lead to some major disadvantages.

[@sbarmiueenl]

Especially when the king is well protected

[@bobdole7292]

Weird that you would mention that on this video considering toward the end a single queen took on an army of 2 bishops and a dozen pawns and was a single pawn away from drawing 2:55 and it came down to a single pawn to give the win to black

[@iwolfman37]

I was recently watching Hikaru's stream and I noticed this when he was playing a blitz tournament game, he reached an end game where he or his opponent had a king and queen left and the other had a king, rook and a pawn and Hikaru stated that it was a draw and that's exactly how it ended. A queen sacrifice for a stalemate position.

It's true but only for stockfish or GM otherwise it's harder to play well 3 pieces than 1 queen

@@james64ibm I mean not simply no, people code fairy stockfish to deal with these more niche situations, that being said, fairy stockfish can play pretty much anything if not every variant it currently supports at a gm or higher level

[@maxheim3802]

Most (non ai) engines should be able to Deal With These scenarios With a few tweaks, even If less efficiently. And also These positions may involve a Lot More computation since we need to calculate really deep to find actual good moves. Im Not Sure how Well we can optimize this at all. This is Just my guess as a programmer With No experience in engine development though

I dont think stockfish uses ai, its an entirely manmade algorithm afaik, an example of ai chess engines would be alphazero

[@astro_pixel8251]

Why is this comment section just full of rebukes that don't even work. The AIs played very well imo. "White should've just attacked the g file" They had to clear the backrank first, to gain access to the cage, but they had a shortage of queens. "He could have pushed pawns and queened earlier." no, black had to defend against white's constant threats of sacrificing and infiltrating the backrank. Only 2 queens wouldve be needed to mate right here.

[@Kev1nTheKev1n]

interesting

[@cccbbbaaa110]

Nah, the ai is wrong by constantly moving bishop from the queen at the end since there is no way for white to checkmate after black king move up. Before that it is fine

[@astro_pixel8251]

@@cccbbbaaa110 im not sure what you mean here. black needed both bishop to win, and had to be careful to not lose one of them, apart from a queen sacrifice from white

[@Okada_Caelun]

I think that instead of Qd9 (at 2:58), White should have played Qe10. This forks the bishops, getting rid of one of them and making hunting of the other one (and the pawns) that much easier.

[@yourfather8041]

I always feel like stockfish gets too confused because of the differences and makes bad moves

[@walrusrequiem]

ngl white did a lot better than I thought it would do

[@medexamtoolscom]

I think it could have done better by restricting its attack to nothing but the diagonal starting from the space 3 spaces in front of the black king (one of which is the wall) and ending with the white square 7 in front of the white king (in its starting position). Just move diagonally into enemy territory from there, attacking that square, sending in one queen after the next, until black runs out of rooks and white squared bishops of which there are only 3. How many pieces in total are there to defend it? One pawn, 7 rooks and 3 bishops are all that could potentially defend that first square. That's a lot of queens to sacrifice but it looks like there are enough of them.

I think white can win if its a queen and king against a dark squared bishop (having a bishop prevents stalemate, and light squared doesn't allow queen infiltration of the box because it can cover the h10 square), but other than that, yeah.

Thats not quite true. If its king and queen vs king and dark squared bishop, white can win, as the bishop prevents stalemate and can't cover the h10 square so queen can infiltrate with help of king.
