Every Chess Variant Explained In 11 Minutes

[@JH51687]

The craziest thing about Xiangqi is that it has game lore based on the Chu-Han Contention, which happened in the 3rd century BC. They hadn’t invented gunpowder at that time, so the 砲/炮 pieces are actually catapults.

Good video. Hand and brain isn't quite right because if the brain announces the piece and location, that isn't a variant. They only announce the name of the piece and the hand has to guess the move and which piece they are thinking about.

There is a variant where white only has the king, but it can do the move of queen and the knight. Black must keep it's pieces protected because white can't capture in check. White tries to capture as many pieces as possible and finally checkmates in a corner.

[@FlydingVent9296]

You didn't include king fu chess, it's chess without turns and every piece has a cool down

[@hy7864]

It's not possible to include all chess variants since there are like more than 2000

For chess960 there are actually two requirements: the bishops must be on opposite colors and the king must be in between the rooks.

I thought about a version myself (which would only work on PC) called loop chess. Both teams have a second row of pawns behind them, and the chess board extends to a second one that reaches back to the other side. It's basically a 8x16 board that extends infinitely on the vertical.

I remember an variant that was I think called scotland chess Its difficult to understand, when a piece moves, the next move will be two moves, then three, then four, and like that, if you capture or check you stop your turn and start with one move again, ussually knights are the Best for their not ussual moves and the queens die fast

Hand and Brain; the brain may only announce the peice that is to be moved. They may say move a knight, or a queen but they may mot say knight to f3, in standard hand and brain the brain is usually an experienced player; i.e. 1800+ while the hand is a beginner i.e.

I thought up a variant I call "Gravity Chess", where the board rotates 90 degrees every set number of turns. But the pawns still must move from one player's side to the other player's side to promote. I'll have to find someone nearby to explain it to one day 😄

[@SEBithehiper945]

Chess World There is the normal chess board, but also 16 more alternate chess boards. These act as the same, but checkmate in an alternate world, you can then upgrade one piece in every world (If you don't have the piece in a world then that world is skipped). You can only upgrade each piece once. In each turn you can choose to move in any world. If you get checked in a world you have to move your piece in that world out of check. Upgraded pieces: Upgraded King (Leader): The king sits in a castle that stops it from being attacked from behind. If a ship/pirate ship is behind, it can shoot down the ship. Upgraded Pawn (Soilder): Can move sideways 1 square, can move/capture diagonally/vertically 1-2 squares everymove! Upgraded Knight (Warrior): Can move like a camel from Fairy Chess too! Upgraded Bishop (Pope): Can jump over 1 piece everytime (has to stop at e4 and d5), or the player can choose instead it to be able jump over 2 of its own pieces every time, but has to stop at e4 and d5. As soon as you move it in 1 of these ways it has to stay doing that. Upgraded Rook (Spy): It can move 1 square diagonally forward now. Upgraded Queen (Emperor): Can also move like a Giraffe from Fairy Chess. Upgraded Ship (Pirate Ship): Can send pirates on to the main land. Pirates move/capture 1 square all the time and when capturing a piece changes the piece's orientation to the pirate's color. The Pirate Ship can only move again once the pirates return to it. The Pirate Ship can move again however if another piece goes inside it Between each world is an entire board's worth of sea. No piece except the ship can go inside the sea, without drowning (being captured). Behind the flanks of the main board is the Ship, a piece that in the beginning can only move like a non-royal king. It cannot move to land. However, when it gets behind an enemy piece, it can turn the piece into a brick in the next turn and steal its abilities. When a Ship/Pirate Ship gets behind a king it becomes check. When it gets behind a leader and get shot down, it sinks into the water (gets captured). A pawn can promote to a ship with pawn abillities if the opponent still has a remaning ship. You only get 1 ship, no alternate ships. The place other boards are in is each direction from the primary board there are 4 boards. Pieces can go inside Pirate Ship/Ships and then leave when a Ship/Pirate Ship is adjacent to mainland, allowing Pieces from 1 world to travel to another using Ships/Pirate Ships. If a piece is inside a Ship/Pirate Ship and it gets shot down that piece dies too. After each game their must be a rematch where the black player was white. If 1-1 or 1/2-1/2 happens, another 2 games. f4, g4, h4, a5, b5, c5 are just the sea.

[@InfernosReaper]

I genuinely hate the "knight + (insert piece here)" pieces when played in the same game as a regular knight & (insert piece here). It just feels like the Queen vs Bishop/Rook, but worse, because it steps on the toes of a the most niche piece. The only possible exception is the Pawn/Knight, because it's at least kinda interesting Perhaps if Bishop, Rook, Knight, and King were just outright replaced with their hybrid counterparts, it would actually be interesting, or at least more facepaced

[@yukizont]

About half of these variants is too fast, boring or complicated to play. For example: Atomic and Three Check - too fast Upside Down, Giveaway and Chaturanga - too boring 5D chess, Hexagon and Shogi - too complicated Meanwhile, Chess 960, King Of The Hill, Racing Kings (and some more) - simple, but elegant

[@eklektikTubb]

I dont find those three variants boring... and since i played them i know what i am talking about. The best/most interesting about Upside Down, and also about Giveaway, is that you hardly know for sure whether you will win or lose in the end. (Also, i dont find Chess 960 elegant nor interesting. But i could be wrong, since i never played that one.)

[@yukizont]

@@eklektikTubb I've played all of variants I mentioned and I also know, what I'm talking about Atomic and Three Check really too fast, I often play and see games, that have less that 20 moves, by several moves we can just explode about a half of pieces, or we can easily give 2 checks by sacrificing Bishop and Queen, for example, and just try to find third check Chaturanga just have less long-attacking pieces Upside down not so interesting since you can easily make so much Queens, and giveaway - since almost every move is capturing Don't need to mention 5D chess, quantum chess, Chinese and Japanese chess, and also some more with complicated mechanics, some of them might be interesting, but still Hexagon is difficult since it has different board and moves of pieces, good knowing of geometry can help to understand, but still, it's hard to adapt to it Why I like Chess 960, King Of The Hill and Racing Kings? It has only one or two new rules and can make game very different: Chess 960 - pieces are random and we can forgot about openings, just act by situation King Of The Hill - you can win earlier, if you have clear advantage by putting King in center Racing King - you can't make checks at all and everything you need to do - is promote your king to 8th rank Also I like Crazyhouse for mechanics, no matter what it's complicated and every mistake costs much more But I don't like variants, that makes new moves for pieces, like when pawns can go one space horizontally, and also I don't like much variants, that much different from classic chess and have more pieces, that classic ones

[@eklektikTubb]

@@yukizont How is the board with many queens boring? More queens mean more danger of being checkmated, force you to think and play more carefully. Same for capturing in Giveaway Chess, the danger of getting into forcing/losing line is very high and makes you think many moves ahead. Yes, Chess 960 is where you can forgot about opening and i LOVE openings, that is why i never played this variant and never want to. Nothing new or interesting in that variant except random chaos in the begging. But i agree that Crazyhouse is interesting and complicated and variants with more pieces that classic ones are even more complicated and harder to play. I rather play variants with LESS pieces (Diana Chess and Los Alamos Chess) or with different board size (Far Chess 12 and Wide Chess 12).
