The sizes are different because when he picks up the pieces, they pulse in size. They stay the size it happened to be when pulsing after being placed back down. Thus, the sizes are sort of random, depending on the pulse.

Lmaoooo your intros are legendary!!!!! I love this idea in general. As a 800-900 rated player I'm taking notes on this one. Gotta love "playing for cheese" and dude, those pieces are absolutely different sizes. And it's not just because you selected it like one guy said. One of the opponent's knights were clearly larger than the other and you never selected either lol.

It’s not a visual illusion, in arcade mode pieces’ sizes vary. You can see the white bishop is much smaller than the black bishop on the 8th rank in that position.

The black knight looking bigger is due to an optical illusion. If both knights were on white squares the white one would look bigger.
